Whether you’re new to escorting or have years of experience, one question always comes up, should you drink while on a job? A single glass of wine can take the edge off an introduction, but alcohol can just as easily blur awareness and weaken boundaries. The truth isn’t about saying yes or no; it’s about understanding when drinking helps, when it hurts, and how to stay firmly in control.
Below, you’ll find our pros and cons to drinking whilst meeting clients from the years of experience we have in the industry. We've also included a few rules that every Manchester escort should follow to keep herself safe if they do decide to drink.
The Pros
Having a Drink with a Client Can Help Them Relax
Many clients arrive tense, unsure, or shy. Booking an escort can feel like a big step, especially for first-timers. Sharing a drink, whether it’s champagne, wine, or a simple G&T can instantly breaks that formality. It come across that you’re approachable, confident, and in the moment.
You’re not drinking to get tipsy, your simply having a drink to set the mood and help your client relax. Sip slowly, keep the focus on conversation, and let the drink serve its purpose, which is to make the client feel at ease.
Keep Energy High
Manchester’s nightlife rarely slows down. Late dinners, midnight outcalls, and long social bookings can drain even the most seasoned escort. It can be easy to not feel at your 100% energetic best especially during long bookings like an 8 hour overnight. Having a drink, like a jager bomb can give you a quick boost to keep your energy high. The key is moderation. A single drink can complement the vibe and match your client’s pace
Build a Natural Connection
Escorts who have years of experience know that genuine rapport is the secret to repeat bookings. Sharing a drink can help bridge the gap between professional and personal interaction. It encourages open conversation and helps you read your client’s mood more easily.
The connection doesn’t come from the alcohol itself, it comes from your confidence and communication, but the social ritual of drinking together can make everything feel smoother, more familiar, and more human.
The Cons
Be Aware of Your Surroundings at All Times
If you’re working an outcall, you’re stepping into someone else’s space. Whether you visit a hotel room, an apartment, or a private home, you don’t know the exits, the neighbours, or the layout. That means you need to stay fully aware of your surroundings.
Even a little alcohol can slow your reactions or cloud your instincts. If you sense something isn’t right, you must be able to act on that immediately. Awareness isn’t paranoia, it’s professionalism. It’s how you protect yourself and maintain control of the environment.
Memory Lapses and Misplaced Items
The consequences of overdrinking aren’t always dramatic. Sometimes, they’re simply inconvenient and expensive. Unfortunatetly, it is not uncommon for us to be told by models that they have misplaced their phone, handbag, or even the cash they’ve just earned. After a few drinks, small mistakes pile up quickly.
Finishing a successful date only to realise you’ve left your money behind is the kind of error that damages both your confidence and your reputation. Keep your wits about you, and your belongings exactly where you left them.
Alcohol Can Blur Boundaries
Escorting is all about maintaining control over the situation, the energy, and your own choices. Alcohol softens boundaries and makes it harder to say no clearly when you need to. Clients may test limits more when they think you’re relaxed, and it becomes easier to agree to things you’d never normally consider. Alcohol can be be the difference from you earning more money from extra to being talked into providing a service for free.
A Must-Follow Rule If You Do Drink
At the end of the day, you are a grown up who can make their own decision and we just hope our advice helps. However, If you decide to drink on a booking, there are two non-negotiable safety rules you must always follow.
1. Never accept a drink you didn’t see being made or opened.
Always watch the bartender pour it, or check that the seal on a bottle is intact before it touches your lips. Never accept a drink that was waiting when you arrived. Even in luxury hotel bars, your safety must come first. If in doubt, politely insist on ordering your own. A professional client will respect that boundary without hesitation.
2. Never drink alcohol if you’ve driven to an outcall.
If you’ve travelled to the booking by car, you must not consume alcohol under any circumstance, not even after a single glass. The legal and personal risks are enormous. Driving under the influence could cost you your licence, your income, and your safety. Keep the job professional: enjoy a soft drink, and save the wine for when you’re back home.
