What is bottle service exactly?
Bottle service is the ultimate experience at Tonic
Bottle Service, also known as Table Service, can be confusing and tricky to new customers who have never done it before. Don't fret – we have you covered.
Bottle service (synonymous with "getting a table") is essentially a way for you to get your own private section at a nightclub, so you have a place to sit, drink, and have a great time with your friends and others. In order to secure bottle service, you do have to pay significantly more money than you would for just general admission (you are usually shelling out hundreds to thousands of dollars).
It's not for everyone, but we highly recommend doing it at Tonic at least once in your life.

What is "minimum spend" when it comes to bottle service
For bottle service reservations, a minimum spend is the amount of money you need to spend on alcohol and/or food in order to reserve your table for free. For example, if it says $1k min spend, you will need to spend $1000 on alcohol (usually 2-3 bottles) in order to get your table for free.
The table is NOT a separate purchase. Your final spend will be determined by the amount of tax/tip/venue fees added on to your minimum spend (anywhere from 20-38% depending on the venue).
Can I order individual drinks instead of bottles to hit my minimum spend?
Most nightclubs require you to order bottles in order to reserve the table, since ordering individual drinks places undue pressure on your table server and bar staff during the prime hours of the club. However, some venues will allow à la carte cocktails / shots / beers. for more details about ordering at Tonic.
