echineko 1 Posted May 21, 2004 Share Posted May 21, 2004 Sometimes I go to pub in Tokyo, but I don't know if it is really like pub in England or Ireland. Is it? And when busy much standing for drinking is interesting. Do you mind standing? Link to post Share on other sites
indosnm 0 Posted May 21, 2004 Share Posted May 21, 2004 standing in a pub is good, more chance of meeting new people rather than just sitting down with your "group" Just makes mingling easier. Link to post Share on other sites
fukdane 2 Posted May 21, 2004 Share Posted May 21, 2004 Too right, sitting in a pub is no fun. Standing in a fairly busy pub with a good vide is tops. Link to post Share on other sites

frannyo 2 Posted May 23, 2004 Share Posted May 23, 2004 Standing in a pub is definitely good. Sitting down / restaurant pubs should not be allowed to call themselves pubs. Link to post Share on other sites
rach 1 Posted May 23, 2004 Share Posted May 23, 2004 I'll be standing tonight in a sports bar watching us thrash Milwall. Then lying down later on Link to post Share on other sites

rach 1 Posted May 25, 2004 Share Posted May 25, 2004 It sure does. And I was seriously knackered on Sunday. Not a terrible hangover, but very tired and not up for anything apart from sleep and eat. Good night. Link to post Share on other sites
akibun 0 Posted May 26, 2004 Share Posted May 26, 2004 It sounds tiring. Maybe its good excuse to drink some more! Link to post Share on other sites

powwwers 0 Posted May 28, 2004 Share Posted May 28, 2004 i prefer to sit down. much more relaxing, and less chance of some `yob` knockin ya and spill a drink on ya. there`s nothin stoppin ya from talkin to tha peeps on tha next table either. and if yar not holdin ya drink in ya hand, ya tend to drink slower. i.e. dont get AS phissed (as fast) also, much better for social interaction, cos ya not IN each others face- as it were... just a thought Link to post Share on other sites
miteyak 0 Posted May 28, 2004 Share Posted May 28, 2004 I'm with you there, powwwers... give me a table anyday, and, er, garcon? Waiter service is a must, if I want to serve myself i'll stay at home! On a recent trip back home I visited my cousins pub in Bristol, so got the great English pub AND waiter service, a winning combination for sure. Link to post Share on other sites
scouser 4 Posted June 2, 2004 Share Posted June 2, 2004 I really really miss good pubs. When I go back, I spend a lot of time with my mates in pubs. There are for sure lots of shit ones, but the good ones are a treasure. If anyone ever going to Liverpool, let me know and I'll point you in the direction of some amazing nights out.
