Would a "Manhattan on the Rocks" usually be considered a "well drink.?"

Because there is no mixer in it (it's all booze), I would say no.

A Manhattan is considered a specialty drink on the cocktail menu.

Well Drinks are the cheapest brand of alcohol the bar has and a simple mixer.
Vodka OJ
Rum and coke
Tequila soda
...ect


You could ask for a Whisky on the rocks but Don't expect the vermouth or bitters.

Well drinks are a combination of one alcohol and one soda. No Martinis or Manhattans. The flavorings are what makes it expensive.

That's why people stick to Applebees and other chain restaurants for fancier cocktails such as martinis and appletinis because they have the 5 dollar option. Another place that has exotic cocktails is Dallas BBQ but I think they're expensive.

No tip for water, 1 dollar for ~5 dollar drinks, 2 for ~10 dollar drinks.
