Well drinks only - I was always taught when I came to the USA - it should be a minimum of 1 dollar per drink -unless of course a bottle of wine . If I am not driving, I would have 4-5 drinks so they would get a minimum of 5$ from me alone. Food would be at 20% tip and food + drink likewise. A busy bar I would hope they would get an absolute minimum of 30$. Otherwise as you ask "What is the world coming too?".
Some Brits may seem like tight wads. I want to assure you all, I certainly am not.
