If there's a lot of regulars which usually happens in small town bars you might count on some pretty good tips but I think over $50 per night might be a bit lofty!. I don't know what kind of atmosphere it is - live music, dancing etc certain nights or activities may make some nights better than others!. If it's the kind of place where people go to celebrate birthdays or hang out after sporting events, you can kind of count of the tips being pretty good!.
You also have to consider the weather and holidays where your at work - but nobody else is!.
Being pregnant probably won't help a lot with tips, in fact some folks might think a bar isn't the place for a pregnant person to be - I know because I was and soon as I started to show, I got all of the day shifts where I was working the busy nights before!. However, this was a big place that got really busy!.
After the baby - it can be tight skirts, tops and heels and I can guarantee tips will be better!. I know it's sexist, but money is money!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

On a weekend i would say around eighty to one hundred and twenty a night depending on the amount of hours they work!.
