Post Malone Drops $1K in Tips at Grapevine Grill

The Grapevine native is known for his generosity. He once left a Houston server a $20,000 tip last Christmas Eve.

There’s a video of Post Malone that we’ve watched at least a dozen times. 

It’s Posty walking around New York City, stopping at a random table of people having brunch. He takes a glass of wine for himself and offers a drag of his cigarette. It’s the most New York thing to see a celebrity during your happy hour. It’s also the most Posty thing he could do, minding his business until he decides to do random pull-ups at establishments.

Fast forward to October. Post Malone was in Texas for the 2025 Cattle Baron’s Ball at Southfork Ranch. The Grapevine High School band kicked off the night and set the stage for Post Malone’s performance, which benefited the American Cancer Society.

After performing in front of a 3,000-plus crowd on Saturday, Oct. 25, he stayed to watch the Cowboys and Broncos game on Sunday at a local haunt (the Broncos beat the Boys 44-24).

In photographs posted on social media by Flips Patio Grill in Grapevine, Posty is shown hanging out and watching the game with other patrons. He covered two nearby tables’ tabs, leaving $1,000 tips for the servers on each check.

Earlier this year, we noted how Posty visited The Railyard Bar in Houston, changing 36-year-old Renee Brown’s life when he left a big tip for her.

Brown told Music Mayhem that she’s a single mother to a 9-year-old girl. When she spoke to Malone, she told him she was sad to be away from her child during the holidays.

Malone asked her to charge him for something so he could add a tip.

“So he asked me to ring him up for a penny or anything, so I did,” Brown said at the time. “I continued my close and collected all my checks and started to enter my tips. Then I got to his. It was a tip for $20,000.”

Post Malone is a nice guy, no doubt about that. If you need more wholesome content, here’s him meeting one of his biggest fans, a 6-year-old who got to meet him during her birthday week.
