Question

Is tipping traditional if the place already adds %18 service charge?

Answer 1

I hate places that add the tip on for you.  I think it should be up to the individual customer as to how much they want to tip depending on the service.

If it is already added on you don't have to tip again unless you think the service was so great that you would like to add a little extra.

Answer 2

Since an 18% tip is already included, you definitely are not obligated to add more. However, if the service was exceptional you could always leave a little more (2%). Servers work hard and if your service is good be sure to tip them well!

Answer 3

no, the tip is included in their 18 %,so your final number is at the end of your bill.
