pickup counter

Order retrieval spot

A pickup counter is a designated area in a store, restaurant, or other establishment where customers collect orders they've placed in advance or items being held for them.

Common at pharmacies, fast food restaurants, and retailers offering online ordering: Your prescription will be ready at the pickup counter.

The term distinguishes this service point from where orders are placed or payments made.
