❓ FAQ

Common questions.

What is a standard tip percentage?
15% is the traditional minimum for sit-down restaurants in the US. 18–20% is now standard for good service. 25% is generous. For takeout, 10–15% is common. Bars typically see $1–2 per drink or 15–20% of the tab.
Should I tip on the pre-tax or post-tax amount?
Tipping on the pre-tax amount is technically correct, but most people tip on the total bill for simplicity. The difference on a typical restaurant check is only a dollar or two.
How do I split a bill unevenly?
This calculator assumes an even split. For uneven splits, calculate the total bill per-item first, then each person pays their items plus their share of the tip.
Is 20% the new standard tip?
In the US, yes — 20% has become the de-facto standard for full-service restaurants as of 2024–2026, reflecting rising costs and the decline of sub-minimum tipped wages in many states.
How do I calculate a 18% tip mentally?
Quick trick: find 10% (move decimal left one place), then add half of 10% to get 15%, then add ~3% more. For a $60 bill: 10% = $6, 15% = $9, 18% ≈ $10.80.
