Bad Restaurant Experiences

From cold soup to lipstick-stained wine glasses, and from wobbly tables to noisy neighbours, Bad Restaurant Experiences explores what can go wrong when dining out. Students discuss common problems, share personal stories and role-play complaints to bring these scenarios to life.

This materials-light speaking activity is perfect for B1-level learners and above. It combines humour with real-life challenges, giving students the chance to practise storytelling, empathy and conditional structures. A recipe for fun learning and lively discussions!
