Would you like one bill for the whole table or separate bills?
Godt svar:
We would like to split the bill, please. There are three of us, and we all ordered different dishes. It will be easier if each of us pays for our own meal instead of sharing one total. That way we avoid any confusion and everyone feels comfortable.
Do you want me to divide it exactly by what each person ordered, or just evenly by three?
Godt svar:
We’d like the bill divided according to what each person ordered. For example, one person ordered a starter and dessert while the rest didn’t. Dividing it evenly wouldn’t be fair in this situation, so paying individually makes more sense.
One of your friends didn’t bring cash. Should I make the bills in a way that some can be paid by card?
Godt svar:
Yes, one of us prefers to pay by card, while the others can use cash. If you could prepare one bill for card and the rest in cash, that would work perfectly. That way we can finish quickly without trouble.
Do you want me to include the tip on the bills or will you handle that separately?
Godt svar:
We’d like to handle the tip separately. It feels more flexible if we each add something after paying our share. That way everyone can give the amount they feel comfortable with.
Finally, would you like me to bring all the bills now, or should I give you a few minutes to get organised?
Godt svar:
Please bring the bills now, because we are ready to pay. We’ve already agreed on how to split everything, so it won’t take long. Bringing them quickly will help us catch our train on time.
