It’s very common at fine restaurants. Just make sure you know the guidelines, including the involvement of the sommelier. Not trashy at all. |
Some of you know little about fine restaurants and fine wines, and it shows.
No, it’s not trashy. Yes, still tip as if you bought a bottle, and pay corkage. Offer the sommelier a taste. |

If they say byob, not at all. |
Wow, this is new to me. Bringing your own wine to a restaurant that sells wine? I would ask first before I presume. |
Are you an adult? Have you never heard of a corkage fee? |
They don’t have corkage at Applebee’s or TGI Friday’s. PP will not understand what you are talking about. She doesn’t go to places where they don’t have pictures on the menu. |
Not at all, but be prepared for the corkage fee. |
This is a trashy response. Just because you can afford to eat at Michelin starred restaurants doesn’t mean you have class. |
It has nothing to do with money, where you dine, or class. It has everything to do with being open to new knowledge, and not speaking about something you don’t actually know. OP asked a question: that’s seeking knowledge. That’s good. At least half the posters on here saying it is trashy or you shouldn’t do it, etc., have no clue what they are talking about. And yet they are talking. |
Tell me you’ve never been to a good restaurant without telling me you’ve never been to one. |
NP. How very unkind. What is going on in your own life that causes you to insult a stranger? I hope it gets better. You should apologize. |
So many miserable people on dcum today 🙁 |
It’s dumb to confidently state opinions on matters where you have no clue. |
If they let you bring it and they have an uncorking fee, then it's fine. |
