English for restaurants.
People love to travel, and eating out is normally a very frequent activity when we are away from home. However, when we are in a restaurant in another country, it’s not always easy to understand the menu, let alone the waiter or waitress when they talk to us.
The sheets are A4-sized PDFs which you are welcome to download free-of-charge. While the materials have been optimised for digital media they also print out nice and clearly.
Worksheet 1 – Basic English for the Restaurant (A2)
This is an English-only worksheet which features annotated images of basic vocabulary related to eating in restaurants. There’s a section on simple phrases and questions which we can use as customers in a restaurant, and there’s also a section on the most common phrases that waiters use.

Worksheet 2 -Basic English for the Restaurant (Spanish)
This worksheet features translations into Spanish for the key phrases, vocabulary and verbs. It is more or less the same as worksheet 1, but with Spanish translations included for all the phrases and questions. This PDF can be downloaded at the bottom of the page.
