Some find it weird, I see it as a free skip the line pass. Used to go to this bagel spot near my old place, would get the same sandwich every time. Once I became a regular, I never had to wait in line to place an order again. Counter guy would see me walk in, look at me, I'd nod, he'd nod. Sandwich got made, it was great.
I have a place like that, and I only go there once a month, but as soon as I walk in, before I even get to the counter, the guy remembers & starts preparing what I need, which is pretty impressive considering they have at least a few hundred people in & out of there every single day 🤯
There was this pizza place in my hometown which unfortunately has closed. Anyway, I'd order there so often as a kid that the literal second they heard my voice, they were like "The usual? You got it!" and it was actually really nice.

When he hits you with 'the usual, boss?' you know you're family
