      @Matt:

      What’s up with tipping in the UK?  Restaurants, bars, cabs, tattoos.

      I don't have any tattoos, but @Graham @Bailey @Olly all have a fair few as well as most of the other lads, so someone will help there.

      Don't tip in a bar when ordering at the bar. If you order food at the bar, then it's delivered to your table, usually service is not expected. If you have a sit down meal and a waiter takes your orders, then a tip would be expected, though more and more it is included in the bill total, so make sure you check the bill before leaving a tip.

      I never tip Uber drivers, but sometimes will tip a cab driver in London, but it's not expected or required, and no one will call you a twat like they do in New York when you forget to tip.

      10-15% is the bracket

          Though if  a NYC cabbie called me a twat I’d consider myself getting off easy.

            @Matt I have plenty tattoos and I don't think I have ever tipped one, I was tempted to when my mate done it, but the cost of getting them nowadays I'm sure they make enough haha! It is certainly not expected mate.

              Thanks!  I think if I were getting one at a shop that was taking a percentage then I’d do it but I’m sure the ones at the party will go directly to the tattooer.  Excited too ok see what he’s got in the works for us.

                We def don’t tip a percentage over here when getting tattooed but I may throw in an extra 10 or 20 if I have it on me and I had a really good experience.

                🤘

                  My tattoo artist has flatly refused every time I've offered a tip, but he knows I'm coming back…

                  Take the dive...

                        No worries. Still leaning on the annies vs. normal 634s, but I’m thinking the cordovan patch alone is going to put a small premium on them  😶

                          I’m also anxious for some more details to help me decide if I’m going for these or UHR.  Right now I’m leaning towards UHR because I don’t have any.  The unknown details will help push me one way or the other.
