Tipping guidelines/ question

I eat out a lot.
Although my friends like to point out I am pathetic on tipping (because we entered a restaurant made in 1975- which recently had as "throwback 1975" pricing night, and after a few beers I mistakenly took the tab and tipped n 1975 prices )-my mistake- which I will never hear the end of. That wasn't a matter of being cheap though- it was a matter of stupidity. Generally though, I spend thousands a year eating out, I do like to tip generously- even if service wasn't so great.

So I think I'm all awesome and such in the tipping department

So here is my question- Tipping in atypical situations- I'm curious.

Let say you go into an open bar. You order a drink from the bar. You don't sit at the bar- you just order a drink- get the drink, pay up- no tab- and walk off. What percentage is expected?

Now- scenario two- while drinking the above beverage- you walk over to an open grill- order food through a kiosk type window. You get your food- they hand you a box of food (good food though.. no complaints!) what % do you tip?

Just curious. Thanks
