Many things are obvious, but we bet there are a few rules of etiquette here in The Canaries that you didn’t know about! #lanzarote #restaurant

Thank you Mike, very informative as usual, surprised by the basket for the handbag! As a retired bar manager,the issue with gentlemen entering the bar/restaurant without a top was one of my top hates,in as much I had a board by the doors requesting they put a top on before entering!

Thoroughly enjoy your vids and this one was informative … the handbag tip we had never realised and certainly did not know the back story. Thanks for another interesting video.

Sobre mesa! I love it. Also, why do so many men on holiday think it is acceptable to sit topless in a restaurant 🤔. Such bad manners. Keep up the good work. I am loving these little gems on local Lanzarote life. Can't wait to live there in the next few years.

Thanks for this. The only one I was surprised about was the basket for the handbag, a fantastic gesture.

Thank you for this we are regular to Lanzarote so it confirmed we are doing the right things. I didn’t know the handbag one, but by coincidence try never to put mine on the floor anywhere. 👍

You’re correct in saying that most of it is common sense and etiquette but that seems to be a rare commodity. Just because they’re on holiday why would people think it acceptable to enter restaurants or shops half undressed, it’s just bad manners.

Great video Mike, could you do a video with simple terms we can use in Spain e.g. good morning/afternoon, please, thank you etc ? , it’ll be out first time in Lanzerote , we’ve learnt some phrases from holidays in Greece and want to try some in Spanish when we come over August.

The handbag one was new to me. The rest are just good behaviour - something that is sadly lacking in some and give the British abroad a bad name.

Good points, particularly the clothing, but I disagree about the tips. I witnessed a lady sit wearing an expensive dress only to find she had sun-cream and sweat stains on her outfit when she left her seat. She insisted the restaurant pay for dry cleaning. Also like other parts of the world, rent, food and other expenses have risen tremendously in Lanzarote, but wages haven't risen enough and locals are struggling. That's why I always tip for good service..... not the quality of the food. The responsibility of the food is the owners and any complaints should be shared with him first and not social media. Thanks for that informative video.

Handbags - we were in a shop on the strip recently and bought some coasters, when we paid we were given something that looked like a very ornate padlock. When we finally worked out what it was for it was a handbag hook!!! Keep on about the dress code - what is it about overweight, balding middle aged men that think it’s ok to get sweaty and then go and sit in a bar/cafe/restaurant. Don’t get me wrong I do sometimes take my shirt off when I’m walking along the beach side of the strip in PdC but I always put it back on if I cross over to the shops and ALWAYS wear a top in a cafe/bar or a restaurant.

Samir who runs Jardin tropical in Charco del Palo always gets tipped very well and she doesn't object if you arrive topless (or bottomless) for that matter😁 we obviously always sit on towels which is standard naturist etiquette.
