FAQ

What is a standard tip percentage?

In the US, 18-20% for sit-down service is the current norm, with 20%+ increasingly common. Quick-service and takeout typically run lower (10-15%). Local customs vary — when in doubt, 20% is a safe default.

Should I tip on the pre-tax or post-tax bill?

Convention is the pre-tax amount in the US, but most servers do not mind either. For a group this small the difference is pennies — split on whatever total you are actually paying.
