About Tipping
Tipping is a way to show appreciation for services provided. The amount you tip can vary based on the quality of service, local customs, and the type of establishment.
Standard Tipping Guidelines
- 10-15%: Standard service or when service was below expectations
- 15-18%: Good service at casual restaurants
- 20%: Great service at any restaurant
- 25% or more: Exceptional service or upscale establishments
- Bartenders: $1-2 per drink or 15-20% of the tab
- Food Delivery: 10-15% of the bill, minimum $2-5
- Takeout: 0-10% depending on service complexity
- Large Groups: Many restaurants automatically add 18-20% gratuity
Tipping Around the World
Tipping customs vary significantly around the world:
- United States & Canada: Tipping is expected (15-20% standard)
- Europe: Service charge often included, but rounding up or leaving 5-10% is common
- Australia & New Zealand: Tipping is not expected but appreciated for exceptional service
- Japan: Tipping is uncommon and can sometimes be considered rude
- Middle East: 10-15% is standard unless service charge is included
Remember that in many countries, service staff rely heavily on tips as a significant portion of their income. When in doubt about local customs, it's always good to ask locals or hotel staff for guidance.
