How long will you wait for a table in a restaurant or cafe?

If you are waiting at a restaurant it's probably prime time for dining in which case if you left and went to another place you would probably wait there too. So I usually make the decision to go where I want but check out right away how long the wait is. Usually it's not really as long as they tell you because they are giving themselves a cushion of time in case some stay later.

I would not love to wait for long just to find a place in a particular eating joint. There are a number of them with good clean preperation and i wont mind searching if i have a lesser waiting time in others. If so i would move to that place rather than waiting for my turn. I carry the numbers of places i love to eat at in my mobile and getting an update on the seat availability would not be a problem for me.

If I really want to eat there I will wait about 20 minutes. But if it is a place where I can make reservation, I'll make reservations so I won't have to wait.

I do not want to wait at all..I hate that I am so impatient about some things!..my hubby will wait forever..that is why he likes to fish..if the fish aren't biting he can sit there until he gets a little nibble..me, gosh..after 5 minutes no bite..I'm ready to go home!..

Usually its about15-20 minutes, its depends with your order.And sometimes they give something for us to eat while waiting for the food.
