I don't eat multiple plates and I think regular waiters have far more interaction and provide more "service". </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-tip-when-you-go-to-all-you-can-eat-buffets#post-183972 Sat, 09 Jun 2012 07:20:17 +0000 SleepyMonkey 183972@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>yes, but not as much as the usual 15-20%. maybe 10%. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-tip-when-you-go-to-all-you-can-eat-buffets#post-183839 Fri, 08 Jun 2012 21:33:33 +0000 Sweet T 183839@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I do as long as there's service. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-tip-when-you-go-to-all-you-can-eat-buffets#post-183834 Fri, 08 Jun 2012 21:28:23 +0000 Alivoo01 183834@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yup.

(On an order for 6 people, though, and the next one will probably be just as crazy.) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-tip-when-you-go-to-all-you-can-eat-buffets#post-183734 Fri, 08 Jun 2012 19:31:35 +0000 autumnlove 183734@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Always! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-tip-when-you-go-to-all-you-can-eat-buffets#post-183733 Fri, 08 Jun 2012 19:30:59 +0000 banana 183733@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yup!I feel like buffet waiters/waitresses actually do MORE service than non-buffet waiters/waitresses. They're constantly picking up you plates (like many many times!) and refilling drinks. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-tip-when-you-go-to-all-you-can-eat-buffets#post-183713 Fri, 08 Jun 2012 19:08:40 +0000 prettylizy 183713@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yeah, as long as there are servers I tip. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-tip-when-you-go-to-all-you-can-eat-buffets#post-183708 Fri, 08 Jun 2012 19:03:49 +0000 BSB 183708@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yeah, I do.
