Standard restaurant tip in the US is 15–20% of the pre-tax bill. In the UK, 10–15% is typical. In many other countries, tipping is optional or included in the service charge.
Etiquette varies. Most guides suggest tipping on the pre-tax amount, though tipping on the total (post-tax) is also common and acceptable.
