I don’t know if it’s standard, but we tend to hold off on getting nitros ready until the person is there to get their mobile order so it doesn’t go bad. I would think you should be good if you order half way, especially if it’s possible to go in and grab your mobile order. I know at my store we start getting extra busy around 7am, but different days can be slightly different. For us Monday’s and Tuesday’s tend to be a little slower. To avoid stress it might not be a bad idea to order before you leave tomorrow and gauge what the lines are like at that time, if you can maybe even ask the barista what to do in the future. At worst, if you get there and it seems like your drink has been sitting out you can always ask to have it remade. Nitro with sweet cream is super easy so it’s not time intensive to remake if needed. Congrats on the new job!

thank you so much, you are the sweetest! ♥️ I will take your advice & see what happens. I may leave my house a little early in case of a wait or something so I should be fine. thank you again! (i’m always scared of making baristas mad on here)

I think most of do want to help. Also, I’m one who leaves super early to get to work and is usually worried about being late, so I get it. I was going to suggest calling around that time to see what their busy times are/when their rush starts, but since you’re talking about tomorrow that wouldn’t work. When you place the order on the app it will give you an estimated time of when the order will be ready and usually will tell you if your order will be ready before you get there which could indicate you should be ok to place it while you’re on your way. When I place mobile orders I prefer to do it before I leave wherever I’m leaving, but that’s more just I don’t like having to mess around with the app while I’m at a stoplight/driving.
