As a bartender, all tips are appreciated. If you like staying in the good graces of your bartender then it depends on what you get. If you get a beer or a well drink for yourself only then a buck is good but if you are spending 25 or more dollars on a round of drinks then I would say at least 5 for every 25 dollars is fair. Bartenders aren't greedy people and for those if people don't have alot of money then what they can give is alright but if you are a blow hard that screams at us to keep pouring and you only tip a buck or two after spending 50 bucks on a round of drinks for your buddies then hope and pray that you never ask me for another drink...because I guarentee that my thumb will limit the amount of booze that comes out of my bottles and into that glass that is overflowing with ice.

depends where u live. In the states u try to tip 20% of the cost w/a minimum of $1 per drink in case there are drink specials (example: $2 house margaritas) . Remember try to always tip the same bartender and if u know u will become a regular the more generous u are...the more generous they will be

I always give mine a dollar a drink and then a bigger amount before I leave depending on how well they served me. If they came back quickly after the first dollar tip, I keep it at a dollar then throw them a 5 or 10 at the end of the night (depending what type of bar I'm at)

Dollar for a basic drink and 2 or 3 for something that takes a little more work.

A dollar a drink. The more I drink the bigger it gets. When I come out the next time to the same bar, I usually get really good service no matter how busy it is.

I generally tip a dollar every 2 drinks. I guess logistics could play a factor though...I live in rural Iowa. Someone in New York City or Chicago for example may be expected to tip more.

I give them a dollar for every three drinks. If you have a party of four, it adds up quite nicely for the bartender. If it's a more expensive place, tip twenty percent of your total bill.

In the UK, nothing. We don't tip bartenders. They look surprised enough if you offer them a drink! If I offered a bar person money for getting my drinks I'd get some bloody odd looks!
