I hope this question is allowed here.

A random cafe asked for 10/20/30% for takeout.

Thanks for all the helpful kind replies:)

    Thank you for your reply. That is interesting to know.

    Is it still culturally okay to not tip? I found the options also shocking.

      Places that have traditionally relied on tipping such as waiters and delivery drivers it would be considered uncouth to not tip.

      Places that have not traditionally relied on tips such as fast food or take out it is considered perfectly normal to not tip. Anecdotally I have seen stories online that the employees of these traditionally non tipping business often don’t receive the tips anyway, so all the more reason not to do so.

        Those places that relied on tips also traditionally got paid less than minimum wage, after covid that carve out was removed. Now it’s the higher minimum wage + tips.
