I don't think it's necessary, but I do just because most restaurants make waitstaff/bartenders ring to go orders under their employee number and so it adds to the amount of "tip out" they have tip out at the end of their shift. I think restaurants should have a "TO GO" number that everyone could ring under so that they dont have to tip out on the to go orders they place. I don't tip as much as I would if I had dined in, but I always tip $2 or $3 depending on the size of the order.

well, I didn't used to until I started working in a hoagie shop, I work very hard making food as fast as I can to please every1 and it's just nice to know ur appreciated a little. I usually just throw a bunch of change or $1 in the tip jar or leave it on the counter. I was getting a to go order at a place once and I just left the change lay there on the counter it was only like .85 cents or something and the girl said hey! u forget your change! I said no just keep it. She looked at me so surprised like no1 has ever thought of leaving her a tip for a to go order. It was just some change but it made her happy. The cooks work just as hard as a waitress does.

I do not belive that you should feel obligated to do so. Usually, a tip is meant for the folks that tend to your order, bring it to you, & also for the folks that clean up the table after you've left. Servers in restuarants really do not make all that much hourly, tips are neccesary for these people to make ends meet.

I never tip when ordering to go though I probably should.
I noticed the other day there is space on the receipt for it at my chinese place where I go.
I think tipping is more for the actual service you get while eating at the restaurant so I don't tip unless I eat there.

If you're getting your to-go at a place that is generally a sit-down restaurant (i.e. Olive Garden, Chili's, Friday's, etc.) then you're needing to tip, but typically not more than 15-percent. Believe it or not, it is harder for your person to prepare a to-go order than for a waiter to bring out food to your table.

I always just give the server $2 - $3 in cash depending on the size of my order when I get food to go. The server is still obliged to take time away from their sit down guests to gather your order, napkins, utensils, condiments whatever.

No, you never tip for fast/to-go food. I mean you're taking it home they're not even having to be hospitable or anything.
And I think that the slips are kind of generic so that's most likely why it had a tip section in it.

Checked this one out with "Miss Manner's." Tipping is most customary for services such as wait staff, bell service, pull men, and package delivery, etc. It's not necessary to tip when purchasing a take out order unless you feel the service has been beyond outstanding or in someway above the bar. So unless your local 'to go' place give you the red carpet service it is not necessary to leave a tip.

No there is no reason at all to tip for an order to go , on the other
hand if you changed your mind and decided to eat in then yes
definitely maybe that is why the notation for tips was on there

If you SAT DOWN at the table and placed your order to go, then yes I do think that it is appropriate to leave a tip.
If you walk in to a restaurant and place a to-go-order, and then you proceed to STAND after having placed that order, then I feel that no tip is required.
