As someone who is a bartender, almost any scene in a bar in any show or movie. I swear it gives people bad habits about how bars actually work.
Example? Geniunly interested.
People magically get drinks, often without ordering or waiting and then don't pay. Also overly vague orders, there's probably near 10 options for a "whiskey neat" at your average bar, but there's never a clarification.
"Gimme a beer"
Hot or cold?
With ice please
Sorry, long time to answer but one of my most hated tropes in shows/movies is the bartender shaking a drink in a Boston tin and just dumping it into a martini glass. No ice. No strainer. Just I'm assuming water poured into a glass. I see it more often then I should. Also "leave the bottle." Fuck off. Order as you go mofo. Ugghh. I have more but those are a few.
