A nice thing about a holiday is being served properly even in an
inexpensive restaurant. Why do we put up with having to queue at the bar
with our table number in the UK?

Is it not down to prices? There are pubs that serve food, and
restaurants. Yes, there are pubs with restaurants, but the restaurant
is not the pub.

Personally, I like pubs that serve food, and don't mind ordering at the
bar, but don't go at busy times. We tend to eat relatively early.
