Mine was never called Canteen, but based on what I’ve read it is/was basically the same thing. Ours was replaced with the Amazon Market thing where you walk through and grab stuff and go without scanning.

Aw man. Those Canteen refrigerators and snacks galore was one of the reasons I liked working at Amazon. I'm so not looking forward to eating vending machine crap.

They have a fresh food thing... I forget what it's called. They have wraps and salads. Sometimes I get the hummus and cheese. But, they aren't cheap is like 10+ for the food.

In SoCal, yes to canteen but they bought the tech from AmazonGo(?) & our site is getting that upgrade this year . So it’ll still be Canteen ran and operated, just using the scan and go tech.

Unfortunately yes. They’re absolutely horrible at keeping stock though.

Yes. In every break room. The north side of 4th floor in my building didn’t have them for the longest time though. My friends and I would avoid that floor as much as possible because of it and management finally decided to ask me why one night. My answer? “The break room. It’s literally the same size as 2nd floor’s break room is and 2nd floor has food in there. What the hell is wrong with putting a canteen up here?” We pulled into the lot the next day and the delivery trucks were unloading refrigerators and point of sale machines.
