👉 A tipman is a person who works in the restaurant industry, particularly in the United Kingdom and Ireland. They are responsible for serving customers with tips, which can range from a small amount to a large sum. Tipmen often work in a variety of roles, including bar staff, kitchen staff, or even as part of a team that manages customer service. They typically earn their living by taking a portion of the bill at the table and using it to cover the costs associated with running the restaurant.
