calculateur de pourboire by State

Tipping in the USA is expected, not optional: the 2026 norm is 20% (18–22% range) at sit-down restaurants, 10% at buffets, 18% for taxis and Uber, $2 per drink at the bar, $5 for valet and $3–5 per night for hotel housekeeping. Worked example: a $100 dinner in New York City carries 8.875% sales tax ($8.88); a 20% tip on the pre-tax subtotal is $20 for a $128.88 grand total, while tipping on the post-tax base gives $21.77 — a $1.77 difference, and both are fine. Parties of 6+ usually have an 18–20% gratuity auto-added, so check the check.
