Is the cider sweet or dry? May I try a little taste of it? I’ll take a gin and tonic with a lime. Can you keep our tab open? Do you serve food here? We’d love some light snacks to share. The meat, cheese and pickles plate sounds perfect. We’ll take another round of drinks. We want to split a slice of the chocolate cake. The music is a little loud, can we move to the patio?
