Lads, a taproom just opened up near me. The problem is there's no damn bar to sit at, just a bunch of tables. What on earth do I do if I go there alone?

Pic unrelated.

Ask if a seat is taken at a table, you'll get turned down sometimes but there's usually cool dudes looking for other bros to chill with, if there's a free seat, make new friends and offer to buy someone a beer. If they're not close-minded folk, you'll have fun. Source: did this in some downtown LA spots, had a great time

Who the fuck makes the drink? Do you pour it yourself? Go by yourself. Don't give a fuck. Bring a book and read it. I love people who sit at the bar and read a book without looking at their phone.

There is a walkup counter to get your drink. It is poured by a bartender.

>I love people who sit at the bar and read a book without looking at their phone.

Happened to me once, no joke. I went in the wrong door (insert joke here) and wound up in a gay bar. Walked up to the bar and ordered a beer. What tipped me off was the nearly complete lack of women there and also all the guys were singing along to "Believe" by Cher that was playing. Finished my drink, paid my tab and went next door where I met up with my friends.

I ended up at a gay bar once. Buddy said the place was cool. We go in. All the ladies are to themselves. Same with the guys. I just figured everyone's being awkward, they'll warm up to each other. Bowls of oranges on all the tables. That's kinda weird but ok. It wasn't till I saw a couple goth dudes trying to inhale each other's faces that I was starting to think something's afoot. Turns out it was gay night. Have my buddy a bunch of shit for it, but some nice gay people sold us blow and e pills. It wasn't so bad.

Some bars are super stealth, or only do club night on Friday. A dyke bar just looks like a really hip shithole with great beer and lots of college age boys with nice haircuts chatting up girls.
