It depends on where you work....the average in tips at any given bar is about $100 a night, with some being higher and some being lower. On weekends, you can double that amount. The highest tips are at the busiest bars, obviously, and at the gay bars. I know a few bartenders that work at the gay dance bars and they average $200 a day and $500 on the weekend per shift. In the finer hotels, the clientele is a different element and the tips can be in the $1000 week range without the loud noise you will find at the other establishments I mentioned in this post. Good luck with your endeavors in New Orleans. You will enjoy life here....especially if you are on the eccentric side. We have quite a few eccentric bartenders in this city.
