    How much do you tip in a restaurant ?

    As per title, hubby reckons you should tip 10% of the bill if the service is good, 5% if the service is ok, If it was me paying the bill I wouldn't tip cos no bugger tips me so why should it be different in a restaurant?

    10% is what i pay and ONLY if i've had decent/good/resonable service. If they are slow/food crap/or nasty then the get nothing

    With very few exceptions I generally tip 10% unless the service or meal has been awful

    I'm with you on that 10 then 5 then nowt if its $h1t3 but if it is then you must complain immediately & you may even get a discount so its like they tip you....!
    Over the water they are expecting a minimum of 20% these days and most tip higher....this bugs me when they stick it straight on the tab...grrrrrrrrr.......its starting to happen here aswell now...most of the time if they automatically add it I take it off & don't pay.
