I went to pick up some drinks and at first there was a mishap with one drink order from the drive through. I went up to the window with the incorrect drink, only to be ignored until I tapped on the window to get their attention (it’s 15°F outside btw) and asked if I could get the ho ho mint mocha blended, they then asked if I wanted a crafted press or the mocha and when I asked what the difference between them was, they didn’t tell me and just gave me a blended drink that was not a ho ho mint mocha. I don’t even think it was a blended crafted press? Just all around confused and annoyed as this does not usually happen at this location. Do better please

I had my first bad experience at a Caribou today. I live within walking distance of this location and my dog and I take a walk there almost every weekend. They were quite busy in the drive-thru, and I was willing to be patient, but it was quite aggravating that my dog and I stood outside the window waiting for at least 20 minutes while they helped at least 10 cars through the drive-through before even making my drink..
