Hello all,
I need to know what the bartender's name is in The Shining. Also, I need to know what Jack says to him the first time they meet, or however you want to categorize their encounter.

Thanks all

I believe the bartender's name was "Lloyd".

U can check here:

i love this movie


"Wendy, I'm home"

I love this movie as well, and I also love the book. The two of them are both quite different, though.

Yep, his name was definitely Lloyd.

I found a rundown of the script as well, and here's the encounter with Lloyd the bartender...

Jack: Hi, Lloyd. A little slow tonight, isn't it? (Jack emanates a belly laugh)
Lloyd: Yes it is, Mr. Torrance. What'll it be?
Jack: I'm awfully glad you asked me that, Lloyd. Because I just happen to have two twenties and two tens right here in my wallet. I was afraid they were gonna be there until next April. So here's what. You slip me a bottle of bourbon, a little glass, and some ice. You can do that, can't you Lloyd? You're not too busy, are ya?
Lloyd: No sir, I'm not busy at all.
Jack: Good man. You set 'em up and I'll knock 'em back, Lloyd, one by one. White man's burden, Lloyd, white man's burden. (Jack opens his wallet and finds it empty) Say Lloyd, it seems I'm temporarily light. How's my credit in this joint, anyway?
Lloyd: Your credit's fine, Mr. Torrance.
Jack: That's swell. I like ya, Lloyd. I always liked ya. You were always the best of 'em. Best god-damn bartender from Timbuktu to Portland, Maine - or Portland, Oregon for that matter.
Lloyd: Thank you for saying so.
Jack: Here's to five miserable months on the wagon and all the irreparable harm that it's caused me.
Lloyd: How are things going, Mr. Torrance?
Jack: Things could be better, Lloyd. Things could be a whole lot better.
Lloyd: I hope it's nothing serious.
Jack: No. (He taps the bar for a second drink) Nothing serious. Just a little problem with the, uh, ol' sperm bank upstairs. Nothing I can't handle, though Lloyd, thanks.
Lloyd: Women. Can't live with 'em. Can't live without 'em.
Jack: Words of wisdom, Lloyd. Words of wisdom. I never laid a hand on him, god-damn it. I didn't. I wouldn't touch one hair on his god-damned little head. I love the little son-of-a-bitch. I'd do anything for him. Any f--kin' thing for him. That bitch! As long as I live, she'll never let me forget what happened. I did hurt him once, OK? But it was an accident, completely unintentional. Could have happened to anybody. And it was three god-damned years ago. The little f--ker had thrown all my papers all over the floor. All I tried to do was pull him up - a momentary loss of muscular coordination. A few extra foot-pounds of energy per second, per second.


Here's the entire thing if you need it:

God, I love this film.

One of the greatest movies ever.

vs - you rock, thanks a lot

No problem man. Glad I could help.

i really want to know why OP needed this information

I'll pm you whygohome's cell number. I don't think he posts here anymore so a pm would be futile.

would you say your posts about RMers' cell phone numbers are the lenny version of my 'coffee' posts?

That's very well possible, mister.

white man's burden, len, white man's burden

Don't I know it.

He's a very inquisitive fellow.

I wonder if he was related to whygodeep.
