FAQ

What is a standard tip percentage?
In the US, 15-20% is standard for good service. 15% for adequate service, 18% for good service, and 20%+ for excellent service.
Should I tip on the pre-tax amount?
Technically, you should tip on the pre-tax bill, but tipping on the total is common and easier. The difference is usually small.
How do I calculate tip quickly?
For 20%: move decimal one place left and double. For 15%: calculate 10% (move decimal) then add half of that.
When should I tip more or less?
Tip more for exceptional service or large groups. Tip less only for truly poor service, not for kitchen issues beyond server control.
