How to get a napkin from a typical restaurant napkin dispenser: Use your thumb and index finger to take hold of the exposed edge of the front portion of the napkin. (If no edge is exposed, push the stack of napkins in and down to expose the edge.) Pull the front portion straight up. Pull the rest of the napkin straight forward. On some dispensers, you may be able to skip step 3 and simply pull the entire napkin straight up. On other dispensers, particularly when they are full or over-full, this will tear the napkin. Zoom
