I had this conversation with a barista earlier this morning and I was confused.

She: Do you hang or work around here a lot?
Me: Yeah.
She: We will make it in house next time.

What does she mean by that?

Welcome to the forum. :hi:

I'm not sure what she meant. What exactly were you talking about? What is the "it" in her second sentence? Was she referring to a particular coffee that you had just ordered?

Yes. It's what we call a non sequitur.

Have you looked up in-house?

If "it" refers to my iced latte, does that mean anything at all?
Thx for answering btw :>
