* ''Anime/SpaceDandy'' likes to hang out at [=BooBies=] between jobs, where the waitresses (both human and [[GreenSkinnedSpaceBabe alien]]) wear pink bikinis. [[RobotBuddy QT]] thinks of it as "that restaurant with the jiggly waitresses and not-so-hot wings."

* Deconstructed at ''Manga/MutekiKanbanMusume'': Miki Onimaru is a Kanban Musume (poster girl) for a Ramen Restaurant, she uses a little red MagicSkirt, and Megumi Kannazuki is the poster girl for a bakery, she uses a larger TrueBlueFemininity skirt.

* Male example: [[Webcomic/AxisPowersHetalia England]]'s "Sexy Waiter" outfit, which basically consists of the lower half of a NakedApron, a bowtie, and cuffs.

* The various bars and restaurants in the Magical World in ''Manga/MahouSenseiNegima''. However, these girls are slaves. Some of them, anyway.

* The splash page of one issue of ''Comicbook/{{Scion}}'' has a sexy bartender leaning over the bar, cleavage in full view, smiling directly at the reader and asking, "See anything you like?"
* In ''Comicbook/UncannyXMen'', Comicbook/{{X 23}} first encountered the X-Men while working as a waitress at "Wannabees," a mutant-themed night club where the attractive female staff dresses as mutant superheroes.

* In the ''Series/DoctorWho'' Christmas special "The Snowmen", Clara Oswin Oswald is a historical variation on this when she works at [[TheGayNineties a 1890s]] London pub as a barmaid, in a dainty but still rather titilating [[http://media-cache-ak0.pinimg.com/736x/50/f4/e0/50f4e09467363628cda43b7c803c46d5.jpg red dress]]. The daintiness (and Clara's {{adorkable}} demeanor) is a deliberate touch, to make it a more kid-friendly example of this trope. Still, her dress would be seen as ''[[ValuesDissonance rather racy]]'' by the more prudish of her fellow Victorians (since even slightly uncovered shoulders were at the time seen as a sign of "looseness" and shamelesness).

* In ''Manga/LuckyStar'', [[ShipperOnDeck Hiyori]] outfits Minami and Yutaka in [[{{Takarazuka}} cosplay outfits]] for the [[SchoolFestival class cafe]] that pander for [[SchoolgirlLesbians her tastes]].

* ''Series/MarriedWithChildren'': When Al's favorite nudie bar briefly becomes female oriented, Al and his NO MA'AM buddies work there wearing a tie and no shirt.

* [[LampshadeHanging Lampshaded]] in the ''Anime/ExcelSaga'' anime, where Excel and Hyatt spend one mission working at a nightclub, and Hyatt notices that their outfits seem designed to emphasize their busts.

* Volume 19 of Shounen Shikou features a paedophilia version of this. An otouto dresses up as a meido for his SchoolFestival and [[spoiler:has sex with his oniichan]]. ([[SarcasmMode How did you know already]]?)

--->'''Megumi:''' ''[[YouFool You’re so foolish, Onimaru san]]. [[LampshadeHanging Women should make the most of their sex appeal]]. [[BreakThemByTalking If you don’t even know that]], [[TheReasonYouSuckSpeech what kind of Kanban Musume are you?]]'' [[NoblewomansLaugh laughs]].

* ''[[Anime/VariableGeo Variable Geo]]'' is about a tournament for [[WorldOfActionGirls combat waitresses.]] So you can expect heapin' helpings of {{fanservice}} from [[BoobsOfSteel buxom babes]], as they duke it out in mini skirts and [[ShesGotLegs stewardess legs.]]

* In the web-based [[QueerMedia gay]] [[UsefulNotes/FurryFandom furry]] story series ''[[http://www.furaffinity.net/view/1660394/ Welcome to Frappuccinos]]'', the main character Venti is a {{Hunk}}y male hyena serving drinks in a coffee house. His uniform on the job consists of nothing but a NakedApron.

* For the few days Ukyou was too sick to tend to her restaurant in ''Manga/RanmaOneHalf'', [[GenderBender Ranma]], [[DudeLooksLikeALady Konatsu]], and [[ShortTank Akane]] volunteered to take over for her so she wouldn't go broke. It didn't take long for Ranma to realize that plenty of male patrons came over to [[MaleGaze ogle]] the [[ViewerGenderConfusion cute "waitress" Konatsu]], and so he quickly turned female, [[ShowSomeLeg donned a microscopic miniskirt and heels]], and proceeded to attract even ''more'' customers. Later on, Akane made up [[{{Bishonen}} Konatsu]] as some sort of prince, attracting female customers [[MrFanservice just as effectively]].

** In the manga, Excel, Hyatt and Elgala get jobs at a beachside bikini bar. Excel (of course) misunderstands and turns up in [[SchoolSwimsuit a somewhat less revealing swimsuit from middle school swimming lessons]]... which turns out to be [[CostumeInertia surprisingly popular]]. Later, "Teriha" gets a job at a MaidCafe to repay Shioji for taking her in.

* Sookie and the other waitresses at Sam's in the [[TheSookieStackhouseMysteries Southern Vampire series]] have a uniform of very tight T-shirts and shorts; in an early mention, Sookie considers it worth it for the presumably higher tips.

* The movie ''WesternAnimation/BatmanAndHarleyQuinn'' has a restaurant called "Superbabes" in which the wait staff all wear skimpy versions of famous superheroines and villainesses of the DC Universe (including Catwoman, Supergirl, Batgirl, Powergirl, Starfire, Vixen, Fire, Ice, and even ''Granny Goodness''). Harley works there as a waitress wearing a skimpy version of her own Harlequinn costume that shows her panties. Indeed, one of male customers tries to cop a feel ... bad move.

Less commonly, the serving staff may be ''male'', and dressed to expose or accentuate his physique. He may be [[WalkingShirtlessScene shirtless]] (perhaps with a bowtie), or wearing a NakedApron, or some other RuleOfSexy.

* ''Webcomic/JuvenileDiversion'' has "Busties", whose waitress uniform includes an open shirt and hot-pink bra.

Female serving staff wearing revealing outfits. Can be anything from a [[FrenchMaid maid costume]] to a short skirt and low-cut top that reveals [[AbsoluteCleavage just enough cleavage]] to [[MaleGaze keep the male clientele interested]]. If the waitresses are wearing hot pants and a tight T-shirt, this, um, [[{{Pun}} outfit]] is probably a parody of Hooter's (a fairly common target of parody and of [[FollowTheLeader imitation]]--if the fact that [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Breastaurant "breastaurant"]] is a word is anything to go by).
