Sticker Printer for just cafe(self.starbucksbaristas)
submitted by NervosaNervous
I feel so bad for the people that come in and order. They get stuck behind the barrage of mobile order stickers and they end up waiting 30-45 minutes for their stuff. I wish we had a printer for just cafe orders so we can get them finished and out of the store ASAP.

At my store we have a drive thru printer and a mobile/cafe printer. (We’re also one of the test stores for the cold bar printer but we don’t always have a cold bar person so it’s not always on) I imagine their set up is kinda similar. I try to prioritize cafe orders as much as possible but in general it’s a mess. I wish we had a third espresso machine especially during peak. Having so many people in the cafe makes me nervous.

ohhhh i see. i work in a cafe only store so our second printer is the mobile one. instead of a cold bar printer it should be ur mobile one wtf :( people order soooooo many drinks on mobile and then come stand in the lobby 1 minute later

I think the cold bar printer is pretty neat because it prints Frappuccino’s, shaken drinks, cold brews, and iced coffees so it distributes the weight of responsibility a little more and the bar partners don’t have to leave their station. I think separate cafe and mobiles printers would be a good idea too but I think inevitably we’re just so high volume that people are gonna wait regardless and I’ll try to get the people who are waiting for cafe drinks or are here for their mobile out as fast as possible but there’s only so much I can do as one person with one espresso machine.

Your shift can route drinks how ever it fits your store best we have delivery orders print to our cold bar printer and nothing else.... but also like above just prioritize in store over mobile orders- we sticker the counter when it’s real busy grab the cafe orders do a few do a few mobiles go back to cafe...

Wait, you guys have sticker printers?

We have three actually. I’m saying I wish we had a printer dedicated for Cafe orders specifically. That way we wouldn’t have to dig through the mobile stickers to find the cafe ones.

Our stickers for cafe and mobile print at the same hot bar, and the stickers for drive, cafe AND mobile all print at our 1 cold bar, but we usually just stick the mobiles aside for a bit I’d we have to prioritize drive and cafe.

We get told not to do that because it supposedly tells the person whose mobile order it is that their drink is ready when we pull the stickers...idk how true that is, though.

My store has a separate printer for drive thru drinks, mobile drinks, cafe drinks, and food :) i couldn’t imagine 2 sharing one printer 😲

My store usually just pulls the mobile order tickets out and places them on the hoppers till they reach the cafe orders. Sucks that it messes everything up

We get yelled at if we do that at my store 🤷🏻♀️

I’m so sorry, that’s what we’re told to do bc Cafe is already there.. It’s stressful and hell doing it especially when there’s a ton of both mobile and cafe orders

My store has a dedicated mop printer, a drive, a cafe and a warming sticker printer.

We have three. Bar 1 (Drive), Bar 2 (Mobile/Cafe), and Bar 3 (Food). I’m saying I wish we had a printer specifically for Cafe vs. them sharing a printer with Mobiles.

When I worked at a cafe only store we had two side by side printers on hot bar. One for MOP and one for cafe orders! It was a dream and I miss it dearly now when I’m on front bar in my DTO store!
