Drew Talbert and several of his hilarious characters.

 

Funniest server stories

Drew Talbert tells a hilarious story about hillbillies dining out for the first time. Learning things from rude customers like asking “do you need your change” vs “I’ll be right back with your change”. What do you think about tipping culture? Keep the change but it’s a bad tip do you give them the change or keep the bad tip? Red flags of an annoying table “I’m a good tipper” “soda refills are free?” etc. Being on set one day and then going back to your restaurant job the next day. Waiting on celebrities including Will Ferrell, Adam Sandler and Pamela Anderson.

Drew Talbert’s favorite munchies

Nashville hot chicken is his go to munchies food. He tells me his top 3 Los Angeles restaurants.  Drew got nervous leaving a bonus tip in addition to auto gratuity. It’s understandable, he makes viral content about customers and restaurant culture so if he were to leave a bad tip, that’d be a bad look. Drew doesn’t like IPA’s (he no longer drinks).
