Frequently Asked Questions
- Standard US restaurant tips range from 15% for adequate service to 20–25% for excellent service. For takeout, 10–15% is common but not required. Coffee shops often see 10–15%. At buffets, 10% is typical since service is limited. Tipping norms vary by country — in Japan tipping is uncommon; in Australia it's discretionary.
- Convention is to tip on the pre-tax subtotal, since tax is not part of the service. However, tipping on the total (including tax) is common and simpler — the difference on a $50 meal is usually under $1, so either approach is fine.
- This calculator splits evenly. For uneven splits, calculate each person's share of the food subtotal separately, then add the proportional tip. For example, if you ate $30 out of a $100 bill, your tip share is 30% of the total tip amount.
- No. Using a calculator is perfectly normal and actually more accurate than guessing. Most restaurant-goers and servers prefer a calculated tip to an arbitrary one.
- For food delivery, 15–20% is standard, with a $3–5 minimum for small orders. Consider tipping more for long distances, bad weather, or large orders. The delivery fee paid to the app does not typically go to the driver.
