12 Creative Ways to Serve

From Robot Bartenders to Food Serving Primates

Servers and bartenders are among the most outgoing and social people you'll ever meet, but when they're replaced with these crazy creative servers, suddenly they're not so charismatic -- sometimes, they aren't even people.

A restaurant's growth and income depend on their food as much as their customer service. Servers are a huge component in any successful restaurant business, which would explain why some restaurants have gone above and beyond to make their servers more memorable. For instance, a restaurant in Japan has its guests being served up by monkeys while a diner in Germany leaves its serving up to technology and requires customers to order their food via a touchscreen pad embedded into their table.

These crazy creative ways to serve are definitely a fun change of pace while revolutionizing the restaurant game.
