The vey few times I have been in a Charbucks, I always ask for a Medium House Coffee, Black. When they say something like “Vente Drip” I just repeat — Medium Coffee, Black.” After a few rounds they get the point.

And they are just waitpersons. “Barrista” is just stupid.

I refuse to say “Venti” anything. I ask for a large coffee and no room for cream.
