Nothing wrong with it, did it all the time when  travelling.

I never think anything of it when I see someone else doing it, but for some reason I’m hesitant myself.

A nice thing I've noticed is if you go into a fairly posh restaurant to treat yourself after a long shift, still a bit grimy, the waiters treat you really well.

Are there genuinely folk who'd avoid eating out while alone in case some strangers thought they were weird?

What do you do if you're away from home? Pot Noodle in the hotel room?

The secret is to allow yourself to be picked up by an attractive woman who buys you dinner with the unspoken but understood promise of sex only to tell her after coffee and desert that you are happily married and that you are sorry she got the wrong idea.

On a work trip to Nottingham, I once ended up eating alone in a curry house where I was the only customer the entire evening. Was a bit awkward with the staff clearly hanging around just for me and in the end the waitress ended up sitting down with me and we chatted away into the evening. Very weird.

I have to do this regularly when I'm away through work and pretty much everyone else will just presume you're in town on business.

 

During the week in most cities there's always a few loners doing the same thing. The rule is, don't get drawn in to talking to any of the others.

By wouldn’t you just go and sit in the boozer and get a fish supper on the way back to the hotel?

If the company pays, I want the full shebang, whether I’m alone or not
