Are you allowed to bring your own drinks into a restaurant?

there is actually no UK law about the consumption of goods on a private premises, however it is seen as courtesy that drinks are purchased and diners abusing this can be asked to leave but that is down to the managers digression.

There are laws however about alcoholic licencing and some restaurants may only have a drink-in licence meaning that by law no alcohol purchased on the premises can be taken away from the restaurant.

There are also particularly in town centres where any consumption of alcohol is prohibited.

If a bar is open in a restaurant then you cannot take in your own drinks.However , if you are maybe vegan , or have a health issue that requires that you do this, then the restaurant can charge corkage on any wines opened for a customer.I knew a person who had to take their own gravy due to some allergy , and they were happy to heat that up for her.It is irrelevant if it costs more in the restaurant for drinks than at a supermarket.That is the customers choice. Your boss is right.

Yes, she is right. A restaurant is in the business of selling food and DRINKS for money to make a profit.

And it's rude. Where does it end? Bring your own dessert, too?

I think customers are only allowed to bring drinks into restaurants if it is alcohol and the restaurant is not licenced.

Yes you are allowed if the management of the restaurant says so - they often charge "corkage" though for this priviledge

she is right. although they shouldn't, restaurants do that to earn from their overpriced drinks!

She is probably correct. Restaurants make a lot of money on their overpriced drinks.

ex is correct .. most fine resturants will allow it, but charge a "corkage" fee.

I think you can only take your own drinks in if the location isnt licenced to sell alcohol.

probablly not beer or wine or shots tho but thats ur bosses terms not ours on yahoo answers
