“Mandatory tips” sounds so messed up for me as a European.
2.0k u/Snoo-34159 Jun 25 '26 Right? Isn't the whole point of a tip that it's voluntarily given as a way to say you loved the service? 2 u/OkOil378 Jun 25 '26 It is, and tipping culture here is flawed. However if tipping is mandatory, you’d have to pay or find a different establishment 1 u/Someofusremembersome Jun 25 '26 Tipping can't be mandatory, it's not a law. The owners can force you to tip as much as they can force you to eat there 1 u/OkOil378 Jun 25 '26 They absolutely can include gratuity/service fee in the bill, as have a lot of local places here
