Apparently this is a common thing in Germany. you aren't supposed to ask for water in German restaurants for whatever reason. They get pissed if you do. What's the reason for this? Is this like a cultural thing?
Be me
It's because they won't get a tip on free water.
This thread sucks dyke ass!
It's the same in most European countries. Most people don't even know what a coffee that doesn't come out of an espresso machine is.
Order beer, Leaf. Yes, it is a cultural thing.

You’ve never left the city you were born in, have you?
Because they aren't supposed to charge you for water.
You get free water every place you eat here as soon as you sit down.
Must suck living in shithole countries where water isn't free lol
So you're telling me that this isn't just a German thing
because they have no water taps in the bar and being a burger they probably went to the bathroom instead of the kitchen to get it from the water tap
