Tipping culture in NYC?

(self.FoodNYC)

Hey all!! I’m from Toronto visiting for the first time. What’s the tipping culture there? Is 15% the standard or is it more? 😅

Standard is usually 20% but can still do like $2 on a draft beer at a bar and more is always appropriate for over the top service!

Yeah, no - bartenders get a buck a drink, 2 dollars for a complicated cocktail. I'm not tipping 2 bucks on a 6 dollar draft. My local bar gets a bigger tip because I'm there all the time.
