This exact situation is why I only pay cash per round.
Interesting. There are only a couple of places in N.O. that I really run a tab when doing serious drinking. And I assure you that neither of them have that computerized touch screen crap or have any intention of doing so. Well, actually one does have it but they never really print out receipts except for credit cards. I never even worry about the tab because I know I'm actually getting a break on the real price and I leave a really nice tip. Moral? Know your bars and know your bartenders. That's the way to go.

was at happy's last night and had a bar tab opened and was basically buying drinks for me and 2 of my friends. we were just drinking beer and did a few shots here and there and when i closed my tab the girl brought me a receipt that said $200.
i looked at it and said wtf in kind of an a-hole way (just a natural reaction) and said that couldnt be right. beers are $3 and the shots were lets say $6 so i am pretty sure i didnt order 40 beers and 10 shots. i asked if anyone besides me ordered drinks on my tab because i do have a really common last name and it has happened before and she said no. i asked her if she could give me a printout of my whole bar tab and she said she couldnt, wtf.
i was obvioulsy pissed(and trashed) and told her that this was fricking bullshite and basically signed the bill, threw it on the table, and told my friends to get the tip.
i was being a dick but to not give me a full receipt on a 200 dollar bar tab is kinda bs. also, whats the chances of a bartab falling on exactly $200?
rant over
Same thing happened to me at Gallette's in Tuscaloosa. They also did not want to give me the printout, so I busted into the managers office and demanded one.
He tried to play it off, and I wouldn't budge, even told him if he gave me his password to the Micros i could teach him how to get a printout of a tab, as I used the same system in my restaurant.
Even asked me if I was sure I didn't drink that much. I said "Man, let's just take $90. That's 30 beers. You charged me for ten more than that. You really think I'd be standing up, much less talking to you, if I drank 40 beers in the span of three hours?
He then went and checked it, came back with a twenty dollar tab. Apparently there were three people with my last name and the bartenders were throwing all drinks on my tab.

i know SEVERAL people who have gotten over charged at Happys for their drinks everytime they use a card.
As a general rule, I never EVER use my card there just because of the amount of people I know that have been screwed over by them.
And if you try and argue with them they get you thrown out. They refuse to listen to you.

I've been considering working there this summer since I have no bar experience, but .. well there's a few reasons I'm not anymore. But this certainly reassures me.

Agreed. We've never been overcharged (knock on wood) and even a few times been WAY undercharged. But pretty much go to the same places.

Son, how are you still standing?

what was added on to the bill or what on the bill did you have?
Posted on 4/9/11 at 11:58 pm to Factsman
she was probably charging me double.
previous posters have said this shite has happened there so apparently its not real uncommon.
and i didnt tip her shite. i told my friends to get the tip

That bitch would be fired for sure. First, she screwed up your bill. Then she took it upon herself to add the tip. F that.
