Ordering a Meal | English Conversation Dialogues
We usually order a meal when we are in somewhere or in the restaurant where we can buy something to eat. Here the example of English conversation that talks about ordering a meal. Please read and enjoy.
Examples of English Conversations:
In a Restaurant
Waiter: May I take your order, please?
Customer: Yes. I would like a hamburger and a large order of French fries, please.
Waiter: All right. And would you like a salad?
Customer: Ok. What kind of dressing would you like? We have Thousand Island, Italian,
and French.
Waiter: Italian.
Customer: And would you like anything to drink?
Waiter: I’d like a large Coke, please.
Customer: Thank you.
From the example above, as the waiter we have to be polite for servicing our customers. We may use modal auxiliaries "would" and "will" to offer something.
Examples:
Waiter: | What would you like to eat? |
Customer: | - I would like a hamburger. - I’d like a hot dog |
Waiter: | What kind of dressing would you like? |
Customer: | I’d like French, please. |
Waiter: | Would you like anything else? |
Customer: | Yes, please. I’d like some water. |
Waiter: | What will you have to drink? |
Customer: | - I will have a Coke. - I’ll have coffee. |
Waiter: | What kind of ice cream will you have? |
Customer: | I’ll have Vanilla, please. |
Waiter: | Will you have anything else? |
Customer: | No, thank you. |
After you read several examples above, now please practice with your friends by using some sentences which I have given as the samples like in the boxes above. Or you can make a role play, here the role play that may be used for you and your partner to make a conversation.
ROLE PLAY: In a coffee shop
Student A: | This is what you want to order for lunch: - a hot dog. - a small order of french fries. - a large salad - Thousand Island dressing coffee. |
Student B: | You are the waiter/ waitress. Take your customer’s order. |
After you practice the conversations based on the role play above, now please switch roles and try the role play again. May these English conversation samples could be useful.
