I have never tipped at nandos and I have visited locations aboard as well. I live a block from the one here and I have never tipped there. I think the tip on the receipt is just standard to their POS.

Former waitress here - I don't tip at counter service restaurants.

I had to work hard for $2 on a burger and iced tea served at table service for a party of 1. I don't really understand this trend of counter service employees expecting tips.

Bartenders are excluded from my wrath.

Actually the service at nandos is usually really good, everyone is nice and helpful, so I tip 15-20% like I would anywhere else.

I don't tip at the register. The server who brings the food gets 10%.

Ive never tipped at Nandos. But I first started going there in the UK, where tipping is often included. But, no, I don't tip at Panera, either. At District Taco, I drop a few dollars in the communal tip bowl at the register. I do tip (a smaller amount) at the Nordstrom Cafe, since they come back to check up on you and refill drinks and such.

They are paid "non exempt hourly" according to the NandosPeriPeri website.

Actually I always tip if they bring my food - at the bakery or something, I just throw a couple bucks down.

I'd want to know how the staff at Nando's are getting paid.

If they are paid above regular minimum wage ($7.25 now?) and tips are pooled, I'd tip like I do at Starbucks/Panera/other places where the staff is paid at least minimum wage and tips are pooled--that is, sporadically, without regard to percentage, and for exceptional service or if I'm feeling generous. I worked at Starbucks for 7 years and tips were great, but I never counted on them.

If they are getting paid waiters wages ($2.15?) and do NOT pool tips, I'd tip 20%.

I'm *guessing* they probably get at least the full minimum wage, but of course I have no idea how I'd confirm this, so it's a bit moot.

Does anyone here tip at Panera bread?
