8 Kinds Of Annoying People We All Encounter At Restaurants

19 January 2024

A visit to a restaurant is rejuvenating. But these classic annoying people are everywhere.

When we step into a restaurant, we expect a delightful experience filled with scrumptious food, great company, and top-notch service. But alas, there's always that one person or group that manages to put a damper on the whole affair. You know who they are - those individuals who exhibit behaviours so grating that they can turn a pleasurable dining outing into an exasperating one. While dining etiquette may vary, certain types of annoying people are universally recognised. We bet you've come across some or all of the following characters during your restaurant visits!

Here Are 8 Kinds Of Annoying People We See At Restaurants:

1. The 'Photo Fiends':

We get it - snapping pictures of your food for memories is trendy. But some people take it to the extreme, clicking away as if they were on a photoshoot. The only question is, will the food still taste good when it's gone cold?

Clicking food pictures is a trend

2. The 'Self-Absorbed' Diners:

These folks are so engrossed in their own little worlds that they seem oblivious to the existence of others around them. Don't expect a nod or a smile from them when you walk in - they're in their own bubble.

3. The 'VIP' Brigade:

Oh, we've all seen them stroll into a restaurant with an air of entitlement. These self-proclaimed VIPs demand special treatment and never fail to drop names, boasting about their connections to the restaurant owner or some other prominent figure.

4. The 'Loud Talkers':

Picture this: You're savouring a delectable bite, immersed in the culinary experience when suddenly, a thunderous laugh or conversation disrupts your peace. Yes, loud talkers are everywhere, and they show no mercy.

5. The 'Rude to Servers':

The servers didn't create the menu, they didn't cook the food either. But some customers seem to forget that. Instead of treating servers with respect, they unleash their rudeness, leaving us feeling sympathetic for the hardworking staff.

6. The 'Complainers':

Even in the most fantastic restaurants, there's always that one person who finds something to gripe about. Every dish that arrives at their table becomes a subject of critique, and they don't shy away from voicing their complaints to anyone within earshot.

Many people constantly complain about the food in restaurants

7. The 'Off-Menu Orderers':

Why stick to the menu when you can be a rebel, right? These daring individuals always want something that's nowhere to be found on the menu. Spare a thought for the chef, who has to whip up something extraordinary on the spot.

8. The 'Bag Displayers':

Tables are meant for food, right? Not according to these folks, whose colossal designer bags commandeer all the space. Their bags are practically guests at the table, stealing attention from the main attraction - the delicious spread.

At the end of the day, as much as they may annoy us, these characters add a dash of intrigue and unpredictability to our dining experiences. Can you relate? Share your thoughts!

The French Revolution Invented Fine Dining

When Louis XVI and Marie Antoinette were beheaded during the French Revolution, the French aristocracy was demolished. Consequentially, the chefs who once worked in noble households found themselves unemployed. Many of these jobless chefs decided to create their own establishments, where people could come and eat meals at a 'prix fixe'. This eventually spread to the UK and across the globe. 🍽
