Frequently Asked Questions
What is the standard tip in Canada?
In Canada, 15-20% is standard for restaurant service. 15% is considered adequate, 18% is the new norm, and 20%+ is for excellent service. Note that many POS systems now suggest 18-25%.
Should I tip on the pre-tax or post-tax amount?
Traditionally, tipping is calculated on the pre-tax (subtotal) amount. However, many Canadians now tip on the post-tax total for simplicity. This calculator uses the pre-tax amount.
When is tipping expected in Canada?
Tipping is expected at sit-down restaurants, bars, hair salons, taxis, and food delivery. It is not expected at fast food, retail, or self-serve locations, despite the rise of tip prompts at POS terminals.
