Some bars can be a lot alike, but the bartender can make one place worth going to more than others. Whether it's some nice looks or better drink treatment, do you have a place you prefer because of who works there?

No doubt. Another important consideration is location. I love a place I could stumble home from without operating a car.Comment -
Absolutely.Comment -

Absolutely, I changed my favorite bars because the bartender moved.Comment -

They pour great drinks at Fran O'Briens near the Silverdome.Comment -
hell yeah.Comment -
I hate hate hate going to a bar where the bartenders are rude. I won't ever go back to a bar that gives me this impression. A tell tale sign of a horribly run establishment.Comment -

Definitely, gotta have a good bartender to make the prices for drinks worth while.Comment -
I agree, zam! We're not just paying for drinks and food - when I go out, it's about the service really. I work with customers all week myself so when it's my time to be one, I don't want to be treated like crap.Originally posted by zam77Comment -
thats how i choose where i will go drinkComment -
If I go to a new bar and the bartender spends to much time BS'ing with the locals as I wait for my next drink then I usually avoid that bar in the future.Comment -
of course. The bartender(s) is 90% of the reason you ever give a bar your business.Comment -
next topic...do you guys choose restaurants based on the quality of the food?Comment -
That's happened to me a few times, Garland! And I couldn't agree more. It's lame when you sit there feeling not as well treated as the regulars. I've given up on a few places even in my own town due to that.Originally posted by Garland BaseballComment -
It's a mix, Profane. Quality of food is a big part of the picture, but for me the service and overall experience has to be there also. Plenty of places I've gone to with great food who feel like they don't need my business the next time - so I just find another place with great food.Originally posted by ProfaneRealityComment -
oh of course...the bar i go to every sunday give me free drinks and one of the bartenders sends me some nude pics.
ordered 80 wings last week and she gave me $25 off
Really can't beat itComment -
Two kinds of bartenders I like
1) This one bar had one of the hottest bartenders I've ever seen. She was SUCH a bitch to everybody, but I went right to her and gave her a 20 dollar tip before I even ordered a drink and introduced myself. The girl always treated me good and I think it helped me with other girls as they'd see me BS-ing with the hot one.
2) The guys that hook you up. They serve you first, they don't make you pay. Yeah they make you pay some money, but when you get 100 bucks in drinks and get a 20 dollar tab???Comment -
of course... nice pics dudeComment -

Yeah you know when it works out... At an open bar event where people are tipping 0 or 1 dollar per drink. You go up and tip somebody 20 bucks and give them a nice smile and catch their name. I promise you'll get your drinks before the cheap asses waiting in line.Originally posted by ReloadUp-front tipping can work out well in some places, C-Gold!
