I'm not a huge club person so lemme get this right. Bottle service is you basically rent one of those little booths next to the dance floor and a waiter will go get you a bottle of booze and bring it over to you occasionally. And for a liter of jack daniel's it costs $325?

typical bottle has 20-25 shots, at a conservative 8$ per drink you are looking at about 200$, for an extra 125$, you get a free cover, dont hvae to wait for drinks, dont really have to tip as well per drink, etc. Its not a horrible deal, but not great.

Wait... how much for a bottle?

Makes getting wasted at SpoCo in Iowa City on dollar-you-call-it night sound amazing. $1 pitchers + $1 mixed drinks.

This is actually not a terrible way to look at it, I think. Are mixers free? What is the tipping expectations?

Mixers are usually free. Every where I've been a 20% service charge has been added.

Mixers are usually free, tipping expectation SHOULD be about inline w/ what you would normally tip, but, imo, you can get away w/ tipping a lot less than normal.. Plus there are extra perks as someone mentioned, reserved seating, vip rooms, chicks dig it etc.

Ive done bottle service 4 times...

1 bottle of Captain 1 bottle of Belvedere at Light $800 + tip (didnt pay for it)there was 8 of us $125 a person

Returned following night 2 bottles of Belvedere 2 Bottles of Captain $1600 + redbull and tip...10 people and it was the same table and section..right on the dance floor best table there by far.....and the hot waitress saved out bottle from last night we didnt finish that was sweet...

Its definatley worth it if you are with a large group...no waiting a personal waitress and $100-$150 per person...which if you arent willing to spend that at a club you need not go....

2 other times was at Rainbow Bar in Vegas

both times bought a bottle got a bottle....

on last Saturday for $257 + tip we got a bottle of Captain a comped bottle of Under 42 Vodka (???) pizza and apps...for 8 people....$35 per person....not too shabby...

...also if you order bottle service ahead of time at some places you can skip line and cover...just have a large party of people
