Example - when you walk into Starbucks, do they know you're Carol and your drink is the Venti triple white mocha?

Yes! I pick up the takeout and people know my name & usual order. Dunkin Donuts, our BBQ spot, our pizza place (I'm Miss Lemon said so sweetly there!), and my Greek place remember me.
-
In university, the Tim Hortons on campus was like that for me. I don't go anywhere frequently enough now!
-
A friend and I have gone to the same restaurant every Friday for years...maybe 8 or so? Anyhow, we've gone there so much they know us and have even given us the employee discount a few times.
-
We don't go anywhere often enough and it's such a big city, I doubt they'd remember me anyway. I've been thinking lately how it's funny that some people are such "routine" people who always go the same places and get the same things etc, and then there are people like us, who are not at all like that. Maybe we need to get some more routines...? We don't have any of "our" places or things...hmmm
-
Yes a few blocks away. We are friends with the chef/owner. I get the same thing for lunch every time and dinner every time.
-
Yes, Starbucks.
-
Yep my local coffee shop (which isn't a Starbucks).
-
Name yes - we go to the same little Italian place every week and they know us well! We don't always order the same thing though
-
One of the managers at CFA knows LOs name. She remembers her from when we went on her bday and everytime we see her she says Hi LO!
-
Yes, I had a chili addiction while pregnant. The cafe near the office definitely knew my order.
-
When we lived in the nyc area, our favorite little Mexican place was like that. They knew us and what we liked and would sometimes give us free guacamole or margaritas
I miss it!
-
The local Japanese place. It was the last place we ate out before LO was born and the first restaurant we took her to. The waitress was especially happy because her name is Lily too.
-
the ppl at the Japanese restaurant we always go to know us and know our order
-
Pre LO, there were a few bars/pubs/breweries that knew us by name and when we walked in they'd have our drinks ready by the time we got to the bar.
While I was pregnant, my main craving was slurpees, so the clerks at the local 7-11 got to know me pretty well!
Now, we have a couple of local craft liquor stores that know us well enough to recommend things we might like when we come in.
(We are not alcoholics, I promise!)
-
There are a number of local restaurants where the staff recognize us but we aren't on a first name basis or consistent in what we order.
But at the local Firehouse Subs, they do know LO's order when she comes in. And the local convenience store I stop at daily, the manager knows me by name.
-
A waitress at the sushi restaurant by our house used to always remember our drinks and appetizer order - even though we only went every 3w or so. She doesn't work there anymore though.
-
Nope! I don't go anywhere regularly enough, and I usually change up my order.
-
They used to know me at Starbucks, but then I changed jobs and stopped going so often.
In university we went to the same bar so often that when they saw us come in, they'd have our drinks ready by the time we got to the bar. In retrospect, that's a little embarrassing.
-
Not anymore, but in college the Chinese place in the mall would totally know my order and would always throw in an extra crab ragoon every time
And the other local Thai place we ate at for lunch would make us origami saying we were her favorite customers haha. I worked at DQ in high school and I knew several people's orders (and everyone's name since well it was a small town.) But I would have one lady's large chocolate cone for her when she walked in & another guy would walk across the street (very old man) and he always ordered a hamburger, "shoe strings" aka French fries, and a cup of coffee.
-
@mediagirl: The local pizza place knows our names. We usually end up ordering once every week or so.
-
Yes our local Chinese takeaway knows our names and usual orders! In fact they even recognise my husbands voice on the phone when he calls with our order!
-
Chinese buffet by work... And it's b/c the cashier and I chat. But they don't know what I get b/c it's a buffet..
-
We have places that know who we are, but I change my order all the time.
-
There's a diner down the road where they recognize us and always comment on how big DS is getting. But we don't have a consistent order there for them to remember. When DH was taking a grad class he stopped at Moe's every single week and they recognized him and knew his order. They'd even make it for him even after it stopped being on the menu.
-
The Starbucks and Kolache Factory across the street from work because I stop for breakfast and a drink almost every day.
-
Yes, Starbucks, and they spell my name right, too!
I miss it!
