When and how much to tip depends on a variety of factors, including the situation, the service, or even the location.

Tipping used to be an expression of appreciation. However, today most service workers depend on tips.

Times and places and where to tip

In the restaurant

Depending on the situation, it is recommended to tip anywhere from 15 percent for average service to 20 percent if you were delighted.

At the bar

If you are relaxing at a bar, it is recommended to leave a fixed tip of about $1-2 for drinks. And for snacks and high-level service - up to 20 percent

At the hotel

It is customary to leave the maids about 2-3 dollars daily for a good cleaning of the room.

In a hairdressing and nail salon

In most salons, it is customary to leave a tip of up to 15 percent in cash.

For the nanny

When paying hourly, it is customary to round up the payment. Praise a regular nanny at the end of the year with a bonus for two weeks of work.

Food delivery courier

How much to tip for food delivery is up to everyone. A fair amount would be $3-5.
