On Monday, that was a bottle of cold-brew coffee and a protein bar. Laxner, who works in the building where the Amazon Go store is located, said he usually isn't looking to browse and knows what he wants in advance.

There's also a section with two-person meal kits designed to be prepared in about 30 minutes, aimed at people who want to pick up dinner on the way home from the office.īranden Laxner, 31, of River North, said he liked the focus on keeping trips quick. There is no hot prepared food, in part because of the focus on eliminating lines, but there are ready-to-heat items and two microwaves on-site. Some fresh items, delivered daily, are made by Amazon off-site and some are prepared by local companies like Fairgrounds, Farmer's Fridge and I Love Sweets. Amazon Go carries the kinds of pre-made sandwiches, salads and snacks you might find at a grocery store, along with packaged convenience store fare.
