No Tipping At Newport's Packhouse Meats

Featured Replies

From various posts it seems pricey for spaghetti and meatballs, particularly when you throw in the no refills. Don't know if we'll be trying it out or not.

 

I agree. Unless I'm missing something sounds a little pricey. And no refills? I don't see how that will stand for long.

They don't have a soda machine. Only sell bottled beverages...

Oh...well that makes more sense then, but I still think that would be a big black eye for them in the minds of a lot of people. How about sweet tea?

Plastic bottle...

When I worked at Rafferty's we were supposed to at a minimum claim our tips as a percentage of totals sales equals to the percentage of our tips on credit card sales. People who paid with credit and left cash on the table were most appreciated.

Great little place, especially for a quick and fairly cheap lunch.

I try my hardest to always make this my method of tipping. Its the best way to tip your servers.

I can always reward exceptional service, this will bring every server to a normal level of service eventually. I don't like it.

At least two of the waitresses at the Packhouse are one of the owners daughters .

Its funny you mention that because my wife and I were out eating a couple weeks ago and when the bill came it had listed on the bottom exact tip amounts if you wanted to top 15%' date=' 20%, or 25%. Anything above you had to figure it out on your own. I believe that was the first time seeing that listed on a bill.[/quote']

 

I saw that a few times while eating out in Myrtle Beach this past week. One thing I noticed is that the based the tip percentage before taxes. I've always tipped on the total of the bill, not the pretax total.

Any updates on this restaurant's policy and how it has worked out?

My son advised me this weekend that you are to tip on pre tax total. I always tip post tax.

I always have done post tax. Even on a $100 bill, doing it post tax is only a few extra cents.

Tax times 3 is the norm, then adjusted based on service.

Is that cheaper overall?
