MB Way, cards and tipping — what is normal in Porto restaurants?
Do I tip 20%? Will every tasca take MB Way?

Card payment is normal in restaurants; MB Way is common for splitting and small transfers between friends. Some tiny tascas still prefer cash — ask before you order if you have no notes. Tips are a thank-you, often rounding up or 5–10% for good service, not a mandatory 20%.
Checked 8 November 2026. This is practical community guidance, not legal, tax or medical advice. Prefer official pages and a licensed professional for your case.
Service charge is uncommon on casual bills. If a large tourist menu adds a fee, read the line before you pay.
Keep the receipt if you need it for expenses. A photo of the MB Way confirmation helps disputes.
