Are you still tipping 20% for takeout

Anonymous
No. I give around 15%

Yes. I won't be able to go into restaurants for the foreseeable future due to chronic health issues, so wish to continue to support in any way I can. So sticking with the 20% tip.

And, these are small locally owned restaurants where I pick up and take out.

I would tip zero for essentially self service.

No, a few dollars in the tip jar if I go in to pick up takeout. Otherwise, nothing.

Yes for takeout that gets delivered to me.

Yes, I still tip 20% for takeout. Before the pandemic I tipped 0% or put some change in the jar. Now, I'm still not eating in restaurants (either inside or outside) so I feel like I should help them somehow.

Why can’t we do it the European way? Restaurant workers are paid like regular folks, meaning no sub-minimum wage. Higher end restaurant workers could get paid more. No one tips. It’s all just built into the prices.

Right now, I tip 10% for takeout & 20-25% for indoor dining. I don’t tip for fast food take out, so places like pizza, Panera, etc. They aren’t or should not be getting paid a sub-minimum wage, which is the reason for tipping.

The industry is moving in that direction, but it will take a while to get there

0% for takeout, which we do irregularly anyway.

The extra $600 ended in July 2020
But yes I agree
