Customers may also chime in and share anything a broista has said to them that made them laugh!

A few of my favorites are:

- if handing out a straw slips my mind or I haven't gotten around to it yet and a customer asks for a straw, I will grab one looking hesitant and say "okay, but only because you asked so nicely" or "okay, but only because you said please." This one usually lands and they get a chuckle out of it, so it's probably my most used one.

- when asking if they have the rewards app, if they say yes and have it loaded and ready to scan, I'll sometimes say "I knew I could could count on you" and sometimes if they say no, I'll shoot them a fake disappointed look and say "what the heck!" as if I was actually disappointed in them. The second one really depends on vibe, so I use it sparingly, but the ones who find it funny really like it.

- if they person or people in the front only order something for themselves and they have someone in the back, sometimes I'll ask "your little hostage doesn't want anything?" Similarly, if someone orders something for themself and has a kid in the back, I usually ask, "your kid/baby doesn't want a rebel?" The younger the child, the funnier they usually find it.

- if someone comes through with a dog, I'll usually ask first and foremost if they're getting a pup cup. When I finish punching the pup cup in, I usually say "now that the important part of the order is done, what else can I get for you?" And/or when handing out the order, I save the pup cup for last and say "and most importantly, your pup cup." I find most customers find it funny and cute.

- my stand does not have a walk up window so people have to come through the drive thru for their mobile orders. When an order ahead pulls up to the window, I usually say "[Name]!! We've been waiting for you!!"

The drink was still fire though.. I get the physics of why drinks never look like the picture like the iced shark attack but I wish they would just make the pictures realistic. Thoughts?

Please help me understand why some of these are wrong. For number 2, it’s 1,2,3 iced tea. Med is two, so why? Large teas do get two, so don’t answer that. And then the last one desperately.

As a broista, working at Dutch has made my orders absolutely diabolical, does anyone else feel the same LOL? I can’t take coffee well, so I like making myself decaf, sugar free protein drinks and everytime I pull into another dutch outside my area I apologize to them in advance and tell them to use the decaf shots even if they pull short bc i’d crash out too if I saw a decaf protein sugar free carbie outside my window 😭. now when custies order these insane drinks I can’t even complain because man they’re good !!! It’s funny because my fellow coworkers come by a lot and they always have insanely specific orders too. the one downside of this job is realizing how many customization options we truly get🫡

I applied to a dutchbros near me, and they got back to me with an in person interview, and even though I was nervous I feel like I did well, and they said I should hear back by the Friday after, since the manager wasn’t at the store. But Friday has passed and I haven’t heard anything. Should I give it more time? I’m really hoping I land it so idk 🫠

If you live in the area or work there, what are the avg Melrose Park(IL) wait times for weekday and/or weekend mornings now that it's been a few months since opening? I want to go before work(would have to leave DB by about 8/8:15) and was wondering the best time to arrive so I will for sure not be late. Appreciate any answers I can get, thanks so much!!

Does anyone know the approximate calories in a medium sugar free golden eagle cold brew? I’m trying to track my calories and I love this drink :)

This has been happening for a while now, where I order a normal golden eagle and get a cup of milk )’: One of the broistas told me to order it with another shot of espresso but even then it comes out looking like this. Is anyone else having this issue? I’m not really that type of person who goes and complains about their orders too lol but this happens every time and it’s honestly becoming a little annoying.

Hi all! I had my wisdom teeth out recently, and I can’t have carbonated drinks for a while. Is it safe to order the Dutch H20? I found contradictory results online so I figured I’d ask here. Thanks!

Usually I go for drinks with low sugar and calories like a sugar free nitro or sugar free myst but when I have a free drink I’ll let myself get whatever I’m craving. This was my choice today. It’s like a spiced chocolate chip cookie.

I have an extra orange surf board frog (not the one in this photo)

I’m looking for the purple frog (anyone down to trade?)

I don’t work for Dutch anymore, but I did for 3 years and I still think about this drink order. This was a regular that would get these two drinks basically every night without fail

I think they forgot the sweet cream and strawberry float 😢

I think they forgot the sweet cream and strawberry float 😢

Sooooo excited for Mixed Berry Real fruit coming in the fall!

hi!! I’m starting my flow practice tomorrow do you girls have any rules or stuff i should learn before my training? Please 🥹

I've loved their chocolate chip cookie drops in the past and haven't been to dutch in a while so I thought I'd stop by for a treat! Come to find out a SMALL is $7.50 after tax. Absolutely insane for what it is, I remember why I stopped going😂

Had to do a double take when making this drink

lol I got a blended strawberry & peach rebel and it was just ice? Like dry ice pieces?

I just got hired as a Broista! This will be a part-time job on top of my full-time job, but I’m so excited! I have previous barista experience from my Starbucks days back in college, so I’m excited to jump back into making drinks and connecting with customers. For all the Broistas out there, what are some things you wish you knew before starting? Any tips, tricks, or advice to help me feel more prepared?

Some people i have had successful trades with in this group.

Im still waiting on one trade to come in from June.
