Absolutely. Nothing better than breezing past the couples at the door waiting 45 mins for a table just for me to plop down at the bar.

I find it pretty enjoyable to get some decent food and veg out on my phone for like 45 minutes.

At a fast food place sure. I've eaten alone plenty of times on my lunch break.

But I'm not going to bother going to a restaurant just to sit there by myself. Some places take 30+ minutes to bring out the food and that wait is much better when you have someone fun to talk to.

I know I would be willing to do so, but I'd also have to really be craving the food there that badly.

Being walking distance from a bar is so clutch. I work from home and sometimes I just wanna get out for a bit. Lotta sports on TV too, local or otherwise, and it's fun to shoot the shit with other randoms.

Why wouldn't I? And yes, I've done it before

but how often do you see someone at a formal restaurant or something eating by themself?

Why would I be paying attention to anyone else in a restaurant?

No I'm not paying all that and tipping someone to sit there alone. I may get something to go and eat it at home. If fast food I'll sit in my car and eat.

It kind of sucks being in a restaurant period. Only tolerable if you're with someone to talk to or drink with

Yep. Two years ago when Red Lobster had their All You Can Eat shrimp special, I went there alone. Olive Garden's specials a while back? Yeah. Layover with only a Ruby Tuesday within walking distance? Alone with just my burger.

I have no qualms against eating at such places alone, but I'm not a fan of waiting on restaurants. Also, I generally don't eat at fast food places either because I have no problem eating and walking at the same time. Might as well head to wherever I'm going next instead of needlessly hanging around here.

Yes.

A couple of times because I got stood up

And once when work was paying for my meal. I had a $35 limit so I went to a resturant.

I'd probably just place a pickup order if going alone.

Unless I'm trying to kill time like when I'm waiting for my car to be serviced or something.

I remember years ago, I'd go for pub feeds with the squad. I'd be like "maybe I should go and get food there by myself some time" and they'd be like "no that'd be weird don't do it".

The way I see it, I'm going there to eat. As long as the food is good and I'm enjoying myself, I'm perfectly satisfied. Where's the harm in going out to eat by yourself?
