I traveled to the lot with one of my werewolf sims and saw multiple npc sims walk in, order a milk tea or food, and then leave without drinking or eating it. Just leaving it on either the counter or taking it to one of the tables. My sim couldn't order because there were too many plates on the counter because sims were ordering and leaving. I went back the next day as a different sim and the same thing happened.

    Same issue here - it's making the Thriftea lot unplayable because there's very quickly a pile of teas on the counter, on the floor in front of the counter, on tables, everywhere. No sims are drinking them, they only pick them up and put them down on a table, then they walk away and never come back.

    I added the counter to a marketplace lot in Evergreen harbor.  I have the same issue of non-played sims ordering and either not picking up the drink or putting it down somewhere else and leaving it.  My sim can't order because the counter is full of drinks (they can take one from the counter) and there is a huge mess left everywhere because no one throws away even the empty drinks.  

    I'm getting really tired of not being able to use things in the game that I paid for because they don't work properly.

    Still happening. Almost all NPCs order, wait, and then leave.

    Thriftea lots are LITTERED with bubble tea cups, both empty and full ones. Why don't sims get rid of the empty drinks either? Aren't consumed food and drinks supposed to just disappear after a sim is done eating/drinking? In a café (if you manage to get an order in because they keep cancelling from the queue 😞) the finished coffee mugs will just disappear so there's no mess left behind.

    @N0T_RiS This is still happening in my game too with every boba counter. They not only block the counter, they leave cups and food all over the floor. I'm not even kidding when I say a Bubble tea lot with be littered with cups within about five min of loading the lot
