❓ Frequently Asked Questions
How much should I tip at a restaurant?
In the US, 15–20% is considered standard for good service, and 20–25% for excellent service. Many restaurant workers earn below minimum wage with the expectation that tips will supplement their income. In the UK, 10–15% is typical. In many Asian and European countries, tipping is not expected or even considered inappropriate.
How do I calculate a 20% tip quickly in my head?
The fastest mental method: move the decimal point one place left to find 10%, then double that for 20%. For a $65 bill: 10% = $6.50, so 20% = $13.00. For 15%, find 10% and add half of it: $6.50 + $3.25 = $9.75.
Should I tip on the pre-tax or post-tax amount?
Etiquette books suggest tipping on the pre-tax subtotal, but in practice most people tip on the total shown on the bill. The difference on a typical meal is less than $1, and servers genuinely appreciate the generosity of tipping on the full amount.
What does "gratuity included" mean?
It means a service charge — typically 18–20% — has already been added to your bill. You don't need to add another tip, though you're welcome to leave extra for truly outstanding service. Always check the bill for a "service charge" or "gratuity" line before tipping.
How do I split a bill unevenly?
Our calculator handles even splits automatically. For uneven splits (where everyone ordered different amounts), calculate the full total with tip using this tool, then divide manually based on each person's order. Some restaurants will also split the bill across different payment methods on request.
Is it rude not to tip?
In the US, yes — not tipping in a sit-down restaurant is considered very poor etiquette. In many other countries, it's perfectly acceptable. The key is to understand local customs wherever you are dining.
