Considering the average drink costs more than $4, how do they expect not to lose money on this deal?

No doubt these ladies asked some guy to buy em a drink so theyd get a free feed. I wonder if theres a limit of one steak per customer?

Also, I notice lady on the left has wine, not beer...

N'yess... it's an odd occurance, but it seems to occur more often with those individuals who lack enlarged mammary glands. Science has yet to explain the phenomenon.

As for free steak I would question the quality of the steak since most places charge more for entrees than drinks.

Shameful, I know. There's also a rumour floating around that female bartenders and waitresses flirt with male customers solely for the purpose of better tips.

Unsubstantiated, but still. Rumours persist.

I think the hypothesis may be flawed. I lack enlarged mammary glands yet still receive offers of free alcoholic beverages. I submit that it has something to do with our DNA or lack of hairy chests.

I used to go to a bar like this. If you bought a pint, then the barmaid gave you a free kiss. After three pints, she'd let you kiss her breastbone for a second. She had a huge rack so even diving deep enough to find the breastbone was difficult. It was all in good fun though. After five pints, she'd give you fifteen jerks. That was enough to get it hard but not enough to make it spurt. So, you'd keep drinking. Not a bad plan. After ten pints would kiss the tip and maybe like the plenum for a few seconds. That was fun, for sure, but after fifteen pints you finally got the payday. The bar maid would take you in the back and let you have sex with her pet goat she kept in an over-sized dog kennel with a hole drilled in the back. I only made it to the goat a handful of times, but it was an accomplishment, you know?

Small boobs and steak are a good combination. Anything more than a mouthful is wasted.

Trance750: Considering the average drink costs more than $4, how do they expect not to lose money on this deal?

The pub's cost per drink served is far less than $4, so there should be enough mark-up on a $4 drink to cover some of the food costs.

As mentioned at the end of the article, many people will have at least a couple of drinks during a meal; especially something like steak that can take a while to eat (and especially if, in the back of their minds they're thinking "I might as well drink up tonight, since the food is free."

So, if someone is spending $8 on two drinks, another $1.70 for chips and salad, plus $1.50 for sauce, that's over $11 per customer. If you figure the cost of those drinks is around $1 each, and the cost of food is something like $7, the pub is still making a couple of dollars per person. Other costs, I'm sure, eat up the rest of the markup, but in the end the pub is (I assume) filling up regularly.

Every customer who buys a third drink, an appetizer, or brings a friend who isn't hungry, etc. is just adding to the bottom line.

Of course, if it's just attracting people who would have come to the pub anyway, then the promotion is only eating up their profits, but it doesn't sound like this is the case.

Or it could be that one of the bar owners knew a cashier at the local market and made a deal. If the cashier passed the steaks through the registers without charging the bar owner, then whenever the cashier would come to the bar, he would drink all night for free.

/Knew someone who did that
/bar had 99 cent burgers and $3 lobster/steaks

There's no way, at the time, to track down the persons who drugged those drinks so that they can be arrested? They owe you hospital fees, in the least.

You are correct. I drink $100 a bottle whiskey and 6$ a bottle beer in moderation. Most Americans do not know what moderation in any context means.

Perhaps it's more related to the possession of a phallus? "Enlarged" is also a relative term...

A couple of years ago we stopped into a bar in NYC.

We ordered up a couple of drinks only for the barmaid to "pickup" one of the bottles.

So we hung around for a few more. As the night went on she was buying the majority of drinks for us including shots.

Pretty girl aswell!!

Aikidogamer: I wish the US had pubs line this.

Several strip clubs in the metro Detroit area have had a $4.95 steak dinner ("dinner" in that it came with potato and salad, even though it was served mainly during lunch hour) special during the afternoon until around 6PM for years. It's a nice cut of steak, too, according to those I know who've gone there ("It was the only place nearby serving food, honest, and, hey, five bucks for a steak...?!") From what I could divine, the clubs take a small loss on the food and make up money on expensive cocktails. It's also a way to attract customers during the usually fairly dead afternoon hours so that the dancers can earn some tips.

IT doesn't come with a single lettuce leaf or a solitary chip - but you can't fret about missing vegies when you're getting your steak for free.

Are Detroit area strippers hot? I guess cheap steak it doesn't really matter, but I am curious. Here in Nebraska, our strippers are nothing special, I was spoiled by vegas though.
