In the old days the restaurant was a place where people came only to eat. This basic feature of visiting the restaurant remains today, but others were added. Now the restaurant is a place where there are social events, established business relationships are consolidated, solemnities (anniversaries, weddings, etc.) are celebrated. Etiquette of visiting the restaurant was being elaborated over the centuries.

A person which invited to a restaurant must come a little early and wait for a guest at the table. If you arrived at the appointed time, but the inviter had not come yet, you can go to the bar and drink an aperitif, or sit at the table and order, for example, mineral water, juice and coffee. The late man must apologize and explain the reason for his delay. It should be valid.

Some women prefer to meet outside the restaurant not to enter there alone. In this case, you should make an appointment at a convenient place for a woman. You do the same if this is a closed club restaurant or a restaurant that is hard to find.

If the company gathers in the restaurant, persons who came in time expect the rest about a quarter of an hour, and then they can go to the tables. The behindhand joins them after apologizing. If you are invited to a country restaurant, and you’re driving, think about how you will get back.

Entering the lobby, a man should remove headdress, and when exiting wear it only at the door. Before entering the hall of the restaurant you must leave coats in the cloakroom. As a rule, only a companion helps woman take off her coat or raincoat. After that, he can take off his coat. Leaving the restaurant, the man at first helps to dress a woman, and then takes his coat.
