No. I don't tip for counter service, only table service or bar service. Counter service is basically take-out. There is no logical reason anyone should tip at an ice cream parlor or a coffee shop, and the fact it's become commonplace is part of what I'm railing against.

Well I asked because putting gelato on a cone could be perceived as a personal service, since the amount of gelato that goes on a cone varies in size based on the server.

As I said, it's not black and white.

And don't get me wrong, I'd ban tipping if it was possible.
