Donnie Wahlberg started off 2020 with some IHOP pancakes

Not only that but he started the new year by tipping way more than the suggested 20%.

Donnie and his wife Jenny McCarthy were not in Times Square this year.  They were at an IHOP  St. Charles, Illinois,  and dropped $75 bucks on pancakes.  I mean, I ASSUME they ate pancakes.  Ihop has sandwishes and stuff too..  BUT!  I digress.  Jenny McCarthy, shared a pic of the receipt which revealed a $2,020 tip!  Humble brag!

Here’s the really cool part.  This is not the first 2k tip from Donnie.  In fact, he does this regularly.  Both eating at breakfast diners, and leaving large tips.  The moral of the story is that if you’re a server and your favorite New Kid comes to eat?  Make sure you get that table.

My mom waited tables, and my dad tended bars– for years! So, when I walk into a #WaffleHouse, and the staff treats me like a king, you better believe I treat them like queens! Thanks to the team at @wafflehouseofficial Charlotte, NC! ❤️
