Recently I had the displeasure of traveling through Newark Airport and at least at Terminal C, you cannot order anything from any bar or restaurant without a phone. You must scan the QR code and order that way. If you talk to a worker or even manager and tell them you don't have a phone, they will tell you they can't help you.

That feels just asinine, specially in place like airport where people might prefer not to use their phones for various reasons...
