The cost, if paid, is usually 10-15$. It seems overkill to leave more than $1/per person when you do most or all of the serving. I use these a lot and $1 is what I leave. Occasionally I forget to bring my wallet down, so then I just slink out....

The real cost for the breakfast is $15.

I typically just fix my own plate and beverage and never even use the server for anything.

Is a buck okay, or should I be tipping 15% on what the total cost would be?
