Member Standards
Tipping Etiquette
Support the craft. Respect the experience.
Your $5 cocktail is a member benefit — not the true value of the drink. Every cocktail is crafted with the same care, ingredients, and expertise as a full-priced menu item.

01 Tip Based on Full Value
Please tip based on the regular menu price (typically $18–$22), not the discounted $5 you paid.

20% Tip
"Tip as if you paid full price."
02 Standard Tipping Guidance
- 20% or more is the expected baseline.
- Exceptional service deserves a tip above the standard.
- Additional drinks or food — tip on the full check, full price.
03 Be a Great Guest
- Show appreciation. A simple thank you goes a long way.
- Be patient during busy service periods.
- Consider another round or a bite to eat. The bar wins, you win.
04 Why This Matters
Supports the people behind the bar
Bartenders pour real drinks. Their craft and time deserve real compensation.
Strengthens venue relationships
Generous members build trust with our partners. Trust opens doors.
Keeps the program sustainable
This works long-term only when every venue wants to keep saying yes.
