How It Works
Splitting a restaurant bill equally is the quickest approach, but it can feel unfair if people ordered very differently. This calculator supports both equal and itemised splits. You can assign items to individuals and divide shared items like starters or bottles of wine between a subset of the group.
The calculator also handles a tip on top of the split. Choose whether to apply the tip before or after splitting, and set a custom percentage. For large groups, many UK restaurants add a service charge automatically — the calculator lets you include this instead of a separate tip.
Example: £120 bill for four people with 12.5% tip
- Bill total: £120.00
- Tip at 12.5%: £15.00
- Grand total: £135.00
- Per person (equal split): £33.75
