poll answer - eating Q-Doba take out from Wednesday - Mexican Gumbo for the win!

Posted by JenBro Aug 2 '13, 09:54

It always tastes better when it sits a day. So good - I really wish I didn't have to drive to Traverse City to find a Q-Doba though. And I do not tip "to go" orders - unless I've asked them to make something special - like ordering off the dinner menu at lunch time or whatevs.

I saw that poll. Having a pat rule of not tipping on takeout orders is unwise if you plan on returning - con_carne Aug 2, 10:03 9
- At places like Chipotle, Subway, etc. I'll throw my spare change into the tip jar. If I'm getting takeout from a local restaurant, I'll tip a few - kelly Aug 2, 10:33 1
  - The chain places is where I draw the line, I guess. I don't if I've ever even seen a tip jar at a Subway... -- nm - con_carne Aug 2, 10:43
- I guess the closest I've gotten to a take out order in recent years is Papa Murphy's 'take and bake' and they don't get tipped. - Meg Aug 2, 10:13 3
  - Right, the fast food chain restaurants don't count. And, I've never been to Papa Murphy's or QDoba. -- nm - con_carne Aug 2, 10:27 2
    - Q-Doba is good - but still new to me - I've had it maybe 4 times? wish it was closer - I might be a regular :) -- nm - JenBro Aug 2, 10:37 1
      - There is one near my momma's house, but she is a Chipotle woman -- nm - con_carne Aug 2, 10:55
- I guess I've just always equated tipping with waiter/waitress/bartender - not a cashier? - JenBro Aug 2, 10:09 1
  - Pretty much. The opportunity has to be there. But, if you're going to be a regular, you're going find a way to do it if you really want -- nm - con_carne Aug 2, 10:14
- sometimes the waitress has more work to pack up a to go order esp if they are not known for to go orders -- nm - zeitgeist Aug 2, 10:08
(except for the whole "pulling a Nathan" bit) :p -- nm - kelly Aug 2, 09:55 1
- heh ... I *just* spilled a bite on my shirt ... someone put up the Pixie alert! :) -- nm - JenBro Aug 2, 10:05
