Get a flash. Learn to use it. ASAP.

One, interiors are always darker than they seem to be. Our cameras don't work like our eyes, and you don't want to end up pushing your ISO to 1600 or beyond.

Two, if the place has windows, and a lot of them, the problem is that windows tend to be on walls. Unless you have some control over the layout of the space, you'll end up shooting toward the windows often, which means people will be in their own shadow. Some fill flash helps amazingly.

Three, don't drink while you're shooting. Or do, if that's what gets you better results.
