Operating your own tavern can be quite demanding, but Ale & Tale: Tavern adds a twist of excitement to the experience. After all, how thrilling is it to manage a tavern when the undead start showing up after last call? Whether you’re going solo or with friends, having some extra help can make serving drinks or handling dusty corners a lot easier.
While you can’t hire traditional staff, you can adopt some charming little helpers that add a fun element to your tavern. We’re here to guide you on how to find these delightful companions and incorporate them into your daily routine to streamline your workload.
If you’re looking to enhance interaction within your tavern or if you simply need an extra hand to manage customer orders, everyone can benefit from some assistance. Visit the merchant’s tent to access their shop menu and discover what you need.
In the furniture section, you’ll find options for both the Waiter Helper House and the Cleaner Helper House. They cost 1,800 gold each, which may seem pricey, but they’re a smart investment that can really benefit your tavern.
Tip: While there are different color variations for these houses, like livestock, you can’t choose which color you will receive.
You can place these houses inside your tavern or on the porch to conserve space. These cute little abodes will welcome the newest additions to your establishment: helper owls!
Helpers are meant to simplify your life at the tavern. If you’d like to generate steady income while also exploring for ingredients, these feathered friends can assist you!
Note: Though they can handle operations independently, it’s best not to leave them alone for too long.
The two types of helpers you can adopt cover the essential duties of running your business. If set up correctly, they can help you achieve greater profits.
Both types of helpers come with their own inventories that you can access, and you can also ask them to stay at their houses if you prefer to take charge of things yourself.
Inside the red helper house, you’ll meet a friendly owl that will help you take orders from customers and deliver food and drinks to the appropriate tables.
This allows you more time to focus on cooking and reduces waiting times for your customers, ultimately enhancing your tavern’s efficiency. The quicker you serve your patrons, the more satisfied they will be!
Tip: Make sure to place dishes and drinks on the counter so the owls can reach them!
However, keep in mind that the waiter does not cook and won’t access food stored in chests. They also can’t replace empty barrels, so you’ll still need to manage those tasks yourself.
The Cleaner Helper is arguably the most valuable companion. They will handle all the messy tasks for you, such as cleaning webs, mopping up spills, and removing dirt and debris to maintain a tidy tavern.
Additionally, they’ll clear away dirty dishes left by customers and put them in the dishwasher for you. They won’t wash the dishes, but they’ll ensure your tavern stays presentable.
By incorporating these helpers into your operations, you can elevate your tavern experience and enjoy your adventure even more!
