One more tipping question Fantasy Remy, Palo, BBB

[Cruella 66]

I hope this will be the last question I ask on tipping. I don't want to ignite any debates but just straight answers: do you tip extra for Palo, Remy, and BBB? Thanks! Cindy

Yes, some people do. Others don't.

We have always tipped extra at Palo & Remy for both Brunch & Dinner. Never used BBB

BBB can't/won't accept tips.

We're bringing candy so can we 'tip' BBB with candy? Also, how do you figure a tip for Remy or Palo? I know at a restaurant, for good service we generally go with 20%. Would it be 20% of the surcharge?

 

[lbgraves]

You could probably give them a gift bag with candy in it to be shared with everyone at BBB.

You could do that -- but around here the buffet would be more than the Palo upcharge and a dinner like that would be WAY more than the upcharge.

We tip usually $10 per person, sometimes $15. Depends upon the service. Can't describe it but there have been times we were compelled to tip more - because the overall experience was so much more awesome than Palo's normal Awesomeness!

Yes I do and I think most do, there is a minority who do not, like all tipping, DCL official diet says at your discretion. I tip in Remy, Palo, drinks there is an automatic 15% on all booze that's purchased.

Remy is dinner theatre and the service is great I have tipped a lot there, Palo is circa $ 20 > $ 30 pp for me, plus booze.

Yes, we have tipped anywhere between $20 and $50 for Palo.
(not been to Remy nor used BBB)

And, yes, will occasionally add to gratuities for drinks.

Can't comment on BBB, but I absolutely tip extra at Palo and Remy.

For Palo, I base the tip on what an equivalent brunch or dinner (including drinks) would cost back home (brunch = $50 pp and dinner = $100 pp). At Remy, I tipped based on the bill (upcharge + wine pairings + port).

We definitely tip extra in Palo. We had dinner and brunch on our last cruise and we tipped $25-$30 per meal. I have no idea if this is "right" or "wrong" but its what we did.

It's consistent on what I do but it's personal to all.

 

[sambycat]

Yes, we tip extra

Does anyone know if the tips/ gratuities that are given to the servers @ Palo and Remy are kept for themselves or within the Restaurant group or are they put into the general tipping pool like all the other tips received on the ship.

 

[lbgraves]

Most of the fee charged for Palo goes to DCL with a very small portion going into a pool for the servers. If you add tip to the check, that goes to your server.
