Just learned that a friend of mine always tips 10% on takeout. Ive never tipped on takeout unless they offered me a water/soda while I waited or something.

US biased, but I’m a little curious about other countries as well.

    I never ever tip if I’m picking up the food myself. No service is being rendered.

    I also pretty much never get takeout anymore because the grossness of being asked for a tip ruins the experience.

      There’s a donut place I go to that hands you a device/keypad thing when you pay and it has like a gazillion prompts and questions, including tip. But I found that if you order ahead and pay online, you can skip all that and just pop in and pick up your order. So that’s what I always do now.

      For anyone in the Chicago area, you need to try Stan’s Donuts. Everything is good but specifically the yeast-raised donuts are to die for. Best Boston Cream donut I’ve ever had.
