10% minimum tip for restaurants. Free now has automatically added 10% tip onto my account. But no tip for bar staff in pubs.

I would always try to leave a 10% tip in a restaurant. But I leave it in cash because I feel like the credit card tip may be less likely to make it to the workers, whether that’s fair or not.

Always, always leave the tip in cash.

I tend to ask the waiter nowadays. Most are happy with an electronic tip and they'll take it out of the till. Ask them and they'll tell you if they would rather cash.

A good barman or barwoman I'll sometimes say, "And take one for yourself," which is basically a tip because only the odd few would stick around after their shift with a pint.

Generally it's in quiet boozers where the staff are half the entertainment and the other half of the entertainment is the other punters. Although I'm sure I'm their entertainment.

Crust have reopened on McCurtain Street doing pizzas now.

Sad to see. The place did the best toasted sandwiches in Cork, and I don't think we need another pizza joint
