How does a bar tab receipt differ from a table receipt?
A bar tab receipt uses a tab number rather than a table number in the header. Drinks are added to the running tab as ordered and the receipt is printed when the customer closes the tab. Items appear in the order they were added to the tab, drinks first, food after. Some bars itemize each drink individually even when the same item is ordered multiple times; others group identical items (e.g. 'Bud Light Draft ×4 @ $6.50'). Our receipt shows the grouped format which is more common at sports bars and casual establishments.
Is alcohol taxed differently from food on a bar receipt?
In most states, alcoholic beverages are taxed at the same rate as food in a restaurant setting, the standard state and local sales tax applies to both. A few states differentiate: some tax beer and wine at a lower rate than spirits, or tax on-premises alcohol at a higher rate than packaged retail. On this receipt, all items are taxed at 8.5%, the applicable combined rate for this location. The receipt does not separate alcohol and food tax because the rate is uniform.
