While I'm at it best Bagels in the world are here too

Done and Done! You tell me what you want and I'll take you to the best! it is all here in the city that never sleeps

I will take you up on that at some point. Never been there!

We tip 18% at restaurants, but I've never put pizza delivery in the same category. They aren't taking my order or refilling my drink or checking back with me to see how my pizza tastes.

The 18% was really in reference to the automatic tip that was suggested to be added on Large orders.

 

[Steamboat WillyNilly]

I am a huge Giordano's fan and I think they will deliver to Disney and Mickey can tip them 18%

There is no place like NYC

Average tip is $3.00 I only had 6 deliveries tonight and I got stiffed once. I only made $42

We usually tip $3. We're also less than a half mile from our usual pizza place. I guess I figured it was (much) less than a 10 minute round trip for the driver. And that's paying him a rate of about $18/hr.

I can't wait to find out if that is a good thing or a bad thing!

 

[Mantle1509]

for instance I just had the best Senegalese food last week

That depends on where you are

 

[DizDragonfly]

Tip your driver $4 for average wait. Tip them more and they will remember where you live and make sure yours is there as fast they can that night.

Hmmmm, maybe I'll consider increasing my pizza tips. Service is pretty fast usually though.

You are right about the bagels. There is a family here from NY that opened the New York Bagel Store. My Dad who was born a raised in NY swore they were the closest to NY bagels he ever had. My parents have passed, but I still think of my Dad when I have a bagel

I hate to sound snooty

No you don't.

I hope for at least 3 and change. Anything under 3 doesn't make for a good night. I know economic times are bad but that's why you see a lot of older drivers now. They need to feed their families too.

Ours is my favorite if you are asking me. I do enjoy some Flippers when I am at our WDW resort...

I keep hearing that place mentioned. I think the guys and I will have to try it one night. I've also heard good things about Giodanos too.

There is a coupon at restaurant.com for Giordano's too!

Good sauce still can't save bad cheese

Amen!

No you don't.
