How Much Do You Tip & When?

we do give tip especially in restaurant as little £5 I think we appreciate young waiters

I leave tips normally a couple of pound for them all. If the taxi driver goes the longest way possible though i won’t tip.

My barber charges £7.50 for a standard haircut and always give him a £10 note and let him keep the change.

I am on a low wage so I don't tip unless I feel the person is on same or lower rate. I work regularly with a taxi driver who earns more in a week than I do in a month so wouldn't tip even if I used them.

Yeah, I definitely leave tips, I tip taxi drivers, takeaways, restaurants, it's always nice to leave a tip, the people always appreciate the tip, the little extra money will add up if everyone else leaves tips for them.

I'm on benefits...I have very little spare money ...but if on a rare occasion I'm out ...on my birthday or I'm getting treated I always tip for good service. People working for really low wages depend on tips.

I agree to tip if you get good service in a restaurant and hope they go into a kitty to share with the kitchen staff. After all it’s the kitchen who prepare and cook the meals.

I never do electronic tipping because perhaps wrongly I assume the restaurant itself takes some of that tip rather than the staff getting all of it. I don't tip much. I tend to go for bargain meals out that end up about £15 or less and typically tip a £1 less than 10%. I go to wetherspoons a lot and never tip in there or see anyone else tip either after a meal.

I give a tip if I recieve really good service when out for a meal. My husband tips the barber when he gets his hair and beard done. We only have the one wage coming in at the moment so if we eat out it is at our local Morrisons.

I tip delivery takeaways only a pound but every little helps if they had one for every delivery they most prob be about 40 quid up a night

I tip in restaurants if I think the food or service has been excellent but I don’t just tip everywhere for the sake of it. also tip the hairdressers too :-) other than that don’t really tip much!

I hardly ever tip. I made an exception New Year's Day to the RAC - he got a fiver for a hot drink.

I don't believe in tipping, but do it sometimes.

We don't need to tip here. People are paid more fairly than in America, where this has come from. They need the tips to survive.

I tip here if I get great service in a restaurant.

Never tipped a driver, and I'd not tip for bad or average service.

I avoid any fee service offered like having bags carried to rooms, in case they expect a tip (not sure if they do?).

I don't as I usually don't have coins around unless necessary. I'd not mind giving a pack of spaghetti or rice, though.

Not a fan of tipping, especially if just for a friendly and efficient service, which is expected. However, I’d part with £2 or £3 for most places that don’t charge a service on top. I try to go places less expensive and very casual, so the tip expectancy isn’t so high

Usually around £2 or £3 but £5 for a takeaway on christmas Eve.

I still stick to 10% as much easier to calculate but restaurant bills usually come with 12.5% service charges. I don’t usually tip taxi drivers as it’s a pay by card system or use Uber.

In the UK never as it is not a country that basis wages on tips such as the USA.

I am currently beyond broke due to disability and unable to work BUT I never tipped and never will in the UK.
