The Torontonian and recent university graduate had just finished a run and wanted to rehydrate. The barista behind the counter handed Montelli the water bottle and turned the point-of-sale (POS) machine β€” with large tip prompts for up to 20 per cent β€” to him.

Montelli paid for the water without leaving a tip, and decided to share his experience on TikTok.

Would anyone tip in this scenario?

I tip at coffee shops but somewhat erratically. The frequency is creeping up.

I'll tip at a coffee shop if I order something that they need to make that I know
a) Takes time
b) Takes skill

Drip coffee? No tip.
Pre-baked good? No tip.
Bag of beans? No tip.
Combination order – custom $amount (not percentage!) tip based on the value of the custom drink only (no need to inflate the tip from the +$25 for the bag of beans).
