Fewer and fewer Londoners are offering tips to delivery riders, new data has found, as soaring inflation and squeezed incomes stifles the generosity of the capital’s takeaway customers. But the likelihood of leaving a tip varies enormously between different London boroughs.
Residents of Richmond are London’s most generous tippers, according to delivery driver earnings app Rodeo, with at least one in four leaving a tip, closely followed by those who live in Swiss Cottage, Notting Hill and Paddington.
