I had a looot of those types of orders yesterday. One of my other partners quipped “is today ‘hit every button day’ for customers?”

What has starbucks done to me because I read this and thought “That’s not bad at all”

This is so damn far from an iced blonde vanilla latte. Don’t ya just love when customers order an already flavored drink and then remove that flavor, then load it with a bunch of other flavors? A blonde vanilla latte with no vanilla, add dark caramel and cinnamon dolce syrup? LOL. Help me make it make sense

Goes to show they don’t have a damn clue what they’re ordering, and the amount of modifications offered gives them WAY too much power and encourages ridiculous ordering.

So many orders are modified so heavily to the point that they’re nothing like the standard of the particular drink, and it’s just silly to me.

From what I’ve heard, specifically with mobiles, sometimes there are deals where you earn more stars if you buy a specific drink… so this is their way of working around that and still getting what they want lol
coffee-and-chillll 20 points 1y ago
Ahhh I see. Thank you for explaining! Not surprised they find a way around it all for some lovely extra stars

I'm more put off by their name than their order. Heaven spelled backwards, is that seriously still a thing?

I mean from when I saw it as a “trend” I would say it makes sense that those Nevaeh’s would be in prime ordering complex mobile orders from Starbucks

IRONIC for being such a hellish human😂😂
Responsible_Snow7109 2 points 1y ago
Lol people see all the modifications drop down options but they can add into their drink when they are mobile ordering so they choose something from every single drop down for each modification. Just cuz it's there doesn't mean they have to pick something from each drop down. Like they have topping they have caramel drizzle and foam and everything else
aspiringgrandpa 7 points 1y ago
at least they put in the mod for caramel right. i’ve already gotten complaints bc they put “extra caramel drizzle” and they don’t get it on the inside

someone came to my old store and would regularly order a grande toasted vanilla oatmilk shaken espresso, sub sugar free vanilla, sub soy, regular espresso instead of blonde. we explained multiple times how to order it correctly and she still ordered the same way every time.
shibesicles [OP] 4 points 1y ago
people like that deserve the extra money it costs imo
vampi_bbx 2 points 1y ago
yeah you're right tbh
welcome2mybog 2 points 1y ago
we have a girl who orders java chip w no chips and she won’t believe us that it’s made the same way as a mocha frap :( usually i just let her go but sometimes i’m feeling testy and i’ll try to explain it to her. she said she doesn’t mind paying an extra 10 cents, but like for what lol??
vampi_bbx 1 points 1y ago
for the mocha drizzle??? maybe??? thats all I can think.

Is it just my customers, or is everyone who asks for caramel walls usually the most entitled person you see all day?

What is that a 15$ drink?
MK2730 3 points 1y ago
I will not lie I am curious about what this looked like after it was made
Dillonitis 3 points 1y ago
Has the ridiculous drinks order gotten more ridiculous over the last few years? I left at the end of 2018 and we would occasionally get crazy mobile orders but I definitely didn't see them often
shibesicles [OP] 4 points 1y ago
It’s everyday, especially with tourists coming back
Dillonitis 1 points 1y ago
I guess my first two store were not in touristy areas and that could explain it. 1 in Monument Colorado and the other in Laguna Hills California.
senescence__ 2 points 1y ago
of course it would be a nevaeh
leeblissy 2 points 1y ago
the way they could have literally ordered a cinnamon dolce latte and made it blonde and it would have saved so much room on the sticker 😭😭😭 of course their name is nevaeh too 💔
FluidCandy532 2 points 1y ago
Obviously she needs to change her name bc there ain’t nothing heavenly about her
converse_ing 1 points 1y ago
We have a regular with almost the same order.
