Tipping in Ireland: general rules<\/h2>\n

Tipping in Ireland is a lot less common than in places like the USA and is completely at your discretion \u2013 but if you feel as though you\u2019ve received good service, then feel free to reward that with a tip. More often than not tipping is optional, and the most common occasion that you\u2019ll need to tip is after a meal out.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Tipping at Restaurants and Pubs<\/h2>\n

Pubs and restaurants in Ireland are the most common place that you\u2019ll be tipping in Ireland. In Ireland, as well as much of the rest of Europe, your bill will include an optional service charge of 10-20% (see more on this below). However, this is will be split up among the service staff. So, if you want to show gratitude to your specific server or waiter, you can always leave a cash tip of 10 – 20% – this is certainly not obligatory, but will always be appreciated.<\/span><\/p>\n

If you\u2019ve have a meal at a pub, the same tipping rules as a restaurant apply. When it comes to bars or a round of drinks at the pub, you\u2019re not expected to tip \u2013 though feel free to leave some small change or round up your bill if you\u2019d like.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

At cafes, tip jars are relatively common. If \u00a0you see one, tipping it completely optional, but if you would like to leave one then put your coins in the jar.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Service charge<\/h2>\n

In the UK, tipping in inns and taverns has always been standard practice \u2013 but it wasn’t until with mid-20th century that the ‘discretionary’ service charge was added to restaurant bills, after the Second World War brought significant changes to the economy and labour markets. The aim was \u2013 and still is \u2013 to provide an incentive for restaurant staff. That’s why, if your server as done a particularly good job, it’s best practice to tip them.<\/p>\n

When it comes to tipping in restaurants, often the service charge will already be included in your bill, sitting somewhere between 10% to 20% (often it’ll be higher for groups of above 8 people). If this is the case, you won\u2019t need to add any extra tip on top of the service charge. <\/span>This is an optional charge, so if you feel as though your service wasn\u2019t of a high enough level then you can ask for it to be removed \u2013 just speak to your server or a manager. <\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Tipping with a credit card<\/h2>\n

If your bill doesn’t include a service charge or you would just like to leave an additional tip for your server, then you can do this by either cash or card. If you don’t have cash, then in most places (and particularly in cities) you can add your tip with a credit card.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Tipping in taxis<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/h2>\n

Tipping your taxi driver in Ireland isn\u2019t compulsory, but if you do wish to, then as a general rule you can round up your journey for an easy tip. <\/span>If you\u2019re taking public transport, then you definitely don\u2019t need to worry about tipping. <\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Tipping at hotels<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/h2>\n

Tipping in hotels in Ireland isn\u2019t common practice; your hotel bill should account for almost everything during your stay. A general exception is porterage, where you can pay a tip of \u20ac1-2 per bag and have them taken to your room. You can always politely refuse any porterage services and simply carry the bags yourself if you don\u2019t wish to pay. <\/span>During your hotel stay, any extra tips for excellent concierge or doorman services are at your discretion.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
