I appreciate the convenience, I’d rather have the freedom to poke around and explore the menu at my own pace. And avoid talking to a person.
- neogodless 8y agoIf I had to guess, the speed of ordering will depend heavily on how custom your order ends up being. I order items without cheese, which tends to take longer with cashiers anyway, who tend to assume you really mean you want it with cheese even if you say "hamburger". And there's about a 25% failure rate for the "no cheese" directive to be followed anyway. But I reserve the right to (really) pass judgement until I've actually experienced a kiosk! Hopefully the UI is logical and doesn't hide options. (The current trend in menus seems to be bigger pictures and fewer options shown by default, while there are items that are still available but hard to find. Used to be able to look for "Dollar Menu" but now "value items" are kind of scattered throughout. Just finding the price of french fries seems to be a challenge for my feeble mind sometimes.)
- mchahn 8y ago> I order items without cheese, The kiosk app makes you go through a screen to customize items. The first time I wanted to order a hamburger I was stuck because there were only cheeseburgers. Later a screen offered the option of removing the cheese.
- therealdrag0 8y agoI appreciate the choice myself, but PSA, my impression [0] is even when we consciously think we don't want to talk to anyone, simple human interactions, even with service workers, actually DO raise our base mood/happiness a non-trivial amount.
