Culture & Etiquette

Wait your turn in lines at shops, buses, bars, and attractions. Cutting a queue is considered very rude.

Please, sorry, and cheers are used constantly. Requests often sound softer than in American English.

In many pubs, order and pay at the bar rather than waiting for table service. Note your table number if ordering food.

On London Underground escalators, stand on the right and walk on the left. Have your contactless card ready.
