I am a decent tipper, but I do NOT hold to a set percentage. We go out to eat breakfast on occasion. For good waitress that kept my coffee cup full, served my food promptly and hot, and did an overall good job I will not just tip a buck fifty (15%) I will give em 4 bucks.

Conversely when we go out to a high end restaurant and order prime rib and I get a Chimay with my food and the bill is knocking on $100 I am not going to tip fifteen to twenty bucks to someone that never refilled my water glass, and only did the minimum effort. They did less work that the breakfast server, just the food I ordered was more expensive.

My average tip for good service is 20%

I had one lunch meal that the waitress has HORRIBLE. I even walked over to her as she was flirting with the manager and told the manager it was the worst service I had received in years. It took 1.5 hours to eat at a Mexican joint that should take 30 minutes max. We never got the tortillas I asked for or the sophillas. I left a one penny tip on my credit card receipt.
