It’s the same as how McDonalds stopped displaying the full menu at the drive thru, instead it’s just an animated screen showing a few key lines they want to push at that time.Alexia wrote: Thu 04 Dec, 2025 18.29 On a semi related note:
if coffee chains continue to replace static behind-counter above-eyeline menus (that can be browsed pretty much at leisure while in a queue) with "dynamic" TV screens that rotate between three or four pages 20 seconds apart, one of those pages being a fecking advert, like some demented dystopian Teletext carousel, thus forcing folk who are not intimately familiar with every one of the drinks on offer to quickly scan the menu in something not a million miles away from a panic, then they will lose custom from casual, drop in, occasional visitors; especially at this time of year when those of use who aren't slaves to their caffeine-based restoratives may fancy something nutty, minty or orangey as a treat.
Whoever thought they were a good idea needs something cold and sticky dropped down the back of their shirt.
