GrackleBirb comments on Is tipping the norm here in Toronto?

I hope this question is allowed here.

A random cafe asked for 10/20/30% for takeout.

Thanks for all the helpful kind replies:)

People tip here all the time at restaurants. Tipping at Starbucks or some bullshit - no not as much agreed.

Tell them that we don’t do that.

If you’re at a sit down restaurant where the server comes to your table then tipping is absolutely expected in Canada.

While this is debatable we believe in paying a living wage unlike the Americans so we consider tipping to be unnecessary.
