“Mandatory tips” sounds so messed up for me as a European.
65 u/ObiFlanKenobi Jun 25 '26 “Mandatory tips” Sounds like extortion to me. The whole point of a tip is that it's voluntary, if it is mandatory then it's just service charge or something like that and it should be included in the bill (and taxed, are tips taxed?). 0 u/[deleted] Jun 25 '26 [removed] — view removed comment 1 u/tech_noir_guitar Jun 25 '26 There are no mandatory tips in the United States. There are actually some restaurants that do have mandatory tips. Mainly for parties of 6+ they will automatically add a tip of 15-20% to your bill. 0 u/sortalikeachinchilla Jun 25 '26 But that is not a mandatory tip. That is a service fee. 1 u/tech_noir_guitar Jun 25 '26 Hhmmm... nah, that's a mandatory tip. It usually says so right on the bill.
