My daughter is a manager there so will ask her to do same.  The lids are
different in that they are designed for higher temperatures than the
soda lids so not sure if anything different would be required.  I assume
you would want to know decaff, sugar, cream, or just plain?

Hi

I have always been thankful for the brail on the drink cup lids at 
McDonalds. However I was vastly disappointed to find the new super sized

coffee cup lids only had print. I E-Mailed McDonalds and they said they 
would forward my complaint to the proper department but nothing has
change 
on the lids of the coffee cups.
