Inviting loved ones to a restaurant to celebrate a birthday is an increasingly common practice. Instead of preparing something to eat all day long, as well as cleaning and tidying up the apartment, many people prefer to spend this time in a place where they do not have to worry about similar issues. However, at the end of the meeting, there almost always comes a difficult issue: settling the bill. Who should pay it?
Who pays for a birthday party at a restaurant? There is one rule
Hosting at a restaurant is a common practice that saves time preparing them at home. Instead of worrying about whether everyone will like the party menu and then worrying about cleaning up, more and more people take their loved ones to a pub where either specific dishes are prepared or everyone simply orders what they want. However, the question often arises: who should pay for such pleasure? Should the bill go to the organizer and the birthday boy, or is it better to divide it equally among the guests? It turns out that there is only one answer. The general rule is that the person who invites pays.
This means that if you are the birthday girl, and instead of having a party at home you organized a meeting in a pub, you should pay for it. It would be inappropriate to ask this of guests. The situation is different when your loved ones want to please you and invite you to a pub to celebrate your birthday. In this case, they should bear the costs of the event. Moreover, this applies not only to this one celebration, but also to other occasions, such as a date, a business meeting, or simply inviting friends to a party, rather than making an appointment.
