Tipping

Utahans are notoriously stingy tippers, so don't ask a local what to tip. It is customary to tip 15% at restaurants; 18%-20% in resort towns is increasingly the norm. For coat checks and bellmen, $1 per coat or bag is the minimum. Taxi drivers expect 10% to 15%, depending on where you are. In resort towns, ski technicians, sandwich makers, coffee baristas, and the like also appreciate tips.
