“#South Carolina restaurant staff receives $2K tip with a note left by \u2018regular\u2019 customer<\/strong>”<\/p>\n

\n

A\u00a0restaurant\u00a0in South Carolina recently received a\u00a0generous\u00a0cash tip from one of its regulars.<\/p>\n

Workers at the Greenville-based Eggs Up Grill got to split $2,021 earlier this month, which the unidentified\u00a0customer left inside an envelope. The customer did not wait to see their server discover the gratuity, Eggs Up Grill Managing Partner Adam Bair told Fox News<\/a> via email.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe gentleman that left the tip is a regular who comes in at least 6 days a week,\u201d Bair wrote. \u201cThe gentleman paid for his $10 meal and left the envelope with the money and the note without waiting around for his server to open the envelope. We tried to catch him in the parking lot to thank him but he had already left.\u201d<\/p>\n

Four servers at the McAlister Square location received $400 each, per the instructions left in the customer\u2019s tip note. The remaining cash tip was split among Eggs Up Grill staff based on hours worked.<\/p>\n

\u201cAll of the staff were very thankful and taken back by the gesture,\u201d Bair added. \u201cWe\u2019ve never received a tip that significant before. We\u2019ve been in business for almost three\u00a0years now.\u201d<\/p>\n

The customer who left the tip has left regular gratuities for staff in the time he has frequented the breakfast- and lunch-focused restaurant.<\/p>\n

According to Bair, the gentleman \u201chas always tipped well.\u201d Throughout the pandemic, the customer has even tipped kitchen staff multiple times, usually around $5 for each\u00a0cook.<\/p>\n

Although the restaurant has received tips from this gracious customer before, staff were shocked when they received the $2,021 tip on Friday, Jan. 15, which was left right at closing time.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt was very surprising. It made a huge impact on all of us above the monetary value,\u201d Bair explained. \u201cIt made the servers feel app<\/a>reciated during a very turbulent time with COVID. Their tips have gone down tremendously and I know the money was very much needed. It was perfect timing.\u201d<\/p>\n

Similarly, Eggs Up Grill\u2019s Marketing Manager Laura Boles told Fox News that she believes the customer\u2019s tip is a testament to the restaurant chain\u2019s level of service.<\/p>\n

\u201c[The staff] work so hard each day to put a smile on the face of every person who walks in the restaurant,\u201d Boles remarked. \u201cThe incredible generosity of this guest means so much to this team that has faced truly unprecedented times over the last year.\u201d<\/p>\n

Since March, altruistic Americans have been leaving larger tips than usual to help restaurants and their workers stay afloat as the nation faces financial challenges caused by the coronavirus pandemic.<\/p>\n
