Well actually James we were there for about an hour (maybe a little more) the bill came to £64.10 and I left a fiver on top so you tell me, was that sufficient or was it an insult?

I think it was fair enough because we were treated right, service was quick, the food was good and the place was clean!

Interesting question James, but now the answer...

I think it was a very decent tip --when we go out for a meal which isnt very often these days i aways hand a fiver to the waitress --there is a resraunt not too far from me that has a large dish at the pat till  which the owner starts it off before anyone dines --- crafty sod-then i dont tip.but give the barman a couple of quid.

Good morning everyone, first time ever I am the first one here, only because I am waiting for workmen to change the heaters after a months delay, at least they have given me a portable one while the others have been turned off.

Regards tipping, I don't go out much to dine these days but at Xmas I always tip tradesmen, postmen etc but this year I did not tip the milkman because he does not acknowledge the cheque and I am used to the please and thank you days which does not seem to happen much these days
