it's not a ... non-thing? I mean, compared to in a supermarket where you would basically never tip the cashier, in a restaurant/café/bar you might well choose to tip the staff ... but it's not culturally required, and there's no particular expected amount, if you do.

Tipping in Australia is pretty much only when you go to a restaurant with a group of friends, and everyone puts in the for their meal, and at the end after you've paid your bill and been brought your change, there's a handful of $2, $1 and 50c coins left over in change, and everyone agrees to leave it for the waitstaff rather than be bothered trying to divvy it up.
