PRACTICE # 14 - ORDERING FOOD AT A RESTAURANT


Ordering food in English at a restaurant is quite common when you travel. There are basic forms and questions, as well as food vocabulary that you can use in places where people speak English. In general, we use the form "I'd like ..." when ordering food in a restaurant. A common question for someone taking an order is "What would you like for ...". Here's a short example:

1. Watch this video and copy the most common expressions when ordering food:

Waiter: Good evening madame, welcome to Stanley House, can I help you?
Kim: Can I have a table for one
Waiter: Please come this way.

Ordering food

Waiter: Are you ready to order now?
Kim: Yes, I'd like to have some lunch.
Waiter: Would you like a starter?
Kim: Yes, I'd like a bowl of chicken soup, please.
Waiter: And what would you like for a main course?
Kim: I'd like a grilled cheese sandwich.
Waiter: Would you like anything to drink?
Kim: Yes, I'd like a glass of Coke, please.
Waiter: (After Kim has her lunch) Can I bring you anything else?
Kim: No thank you. Just the bill.
Waiter: Certainly.
Kim: I don't have my glasses. How much is the lunch?
Waiter: That's $6.75.
Kim: Here you are. Thank you very much.
Waiter: You're welcome. Have a good day.
Kim: Thank you, the same to you.
