The Globe on the Lake, Alresford

A surprise 10% service charge appeared on the bill total with a statement that one can opt out. So tipping is not compulsory, so long as you don't mind an embarrassing end to a pleasant evening. The pre-dinner pints included an extra 10% as well becuase they were on the tab.
Long live the opt in system, which makes me feel much better when I leave a tip.
