This is exactly Ritual's (Toronto, Canada) schtick. Order ahead, start walking. Food will be ready when you arrive. There's no reason why you need to stick to coffee. I use Ritual to order from my favourite restaurant in the middle of a tourist attraction. The tourists wait 30+ minutes, and I can stroll up to the counter and grab my lunch and skip the line.

Ritual even tracks your location with GPS (if opt-in) and delays your order until the appropriate time.

The first time I used it, it was for a cappuccino. I walked into the store just as the barista was doing the art with the milk foam. 10/10 timing.
