The legal age to sit in a bar is the same as the legal age to drink in the jurisdiction you're in. For example, if the legal drinking age is 19, you must be 19 to sit in a bar. This doesn't apply to family-oriented bar-and-grill type restaurants, though sitting AT the bar would have the same restriction.
there is not really a legal age but a legal weight, legal weight is at least 85 lbs. or whenever the child is tall enough to be out of a booster seat if they do not already weight 85 lbs. but this is mostly up to your judgement as a parent, grandparent, uncle, aunt, or cousin
No, in Florida, it is illegal for a child to sit at a bar regardless of whether they are drinking alcohol or not. Minors are not allowed in areas of a bar where alcohol is served, unless accompanied by a parent, legal guardian, or spouse who is at least 21 years old.
In Minnesota, it is recommended but not required for children under 13 to sit in the back seat when possible. However, if a child must sit in the front seat, they should be properly restrained in a child safety seat or booster seat appropriate for their age and size.
As is usual, depends on the circumstances. If the establishment is defined as a "bar" under Georgia Law, meaning it derives more than 75% of its revenue from alcohol sales, the following code section 3.3.24.1 applies. No individual under the age of 21 shall enter or be allowed to enter a bar unless he or she is accompanied by his or her parent, guardian, or spouse who is 21 years of age or older. This subsection shall not apply to an individual while he or she is attending a live musical concert or live presentation of the performing arts for which he or she has paid an admission charge. This is a small number of establishments. Most liquor license holders are restaurants, an in those establishments there are no restrictions on either entry or where the minor may sit regardless of whether accompanied by a parent. However, many establishments seeking to preserve an adults only atmosphere at their bars will dissuade minors or parents with minors from sitting at their counter top seating and some will outright lie and say it's illegal, when there is no such law.
In New Jersey, a child must be at least 8 years old and meet the height and weight requirements prescribed by law before they can sit in the front seat of a vehicle with a functioning airbag. It is recommended to refer to the specific guidelines outlined in the state's child passenger safety laws for accurate information.
the age to sit there is the same as it is to take part in what that place is for.... for example if the legal drinking age is 21, you have to be 21 to sit in a bar as the bar is a place made for serving alcoholic beverages.
No, it is not illegal to sit at a bar even if under drinking age, because you are not buying nor are you consuming any alcohol. You are only not aloud to sit at the bar if it is a club that requires you to be a certain age to enter or if the bar tender asks you to leave and you don't go then you will be committing loitering.
It is legal in some states to sit at the bar if you are under the legal drinking age, (21 in all U.S. states.) Check with local law resources to learn what is permissible. Many restaurants & taverns have policies against anyone younger than the legal drinking age sitting at the bar.
at most bars you are allowed to sit at a bar and eat if you are 18. obviously, if you're not drinking there should be no problem. but it's up to the facility.
Legally, anyone under 16 has to be accompanied by a parent or guardian. There's no legal restriction against someone 16 or over being in a bar (it doesn't matter where you "sit," the law addresses entering an establishment that has an on-premise liquor license), however bars can have their own policies which include higher age limits. It's not legal to be in a bar if they tell if they tell you to leave. The applicable section is 260.21 of New York Penal Law.
I was told and applied in my bar tending career that no one under the age of 21 can sit "at the bar" but could sit at a table in the bar area if accompanied by parents. I was just recently told this was not true and I am looking to get the exact answer.... I am having trouble locating the facts......little help
