Ordinarily I wouldn't mind, but this isn't a one off. The last time I ordered in this store via the app, I waited way past the prep time, then someone asked was I OK. When I explained they checked the computer and informed me that my order had just come through.
Sorry but its too slow. Watching people come in after me and get their drink and away is really...
