- Country or region Australia
@ms0022105 if they're asking that in a coffee shop it either means 'how is everything going' or 'how is everything' referring to what ordered.
You could reply with 'everything's going good' or 'everything is good'.
Ps: it doesn't have to be good it can great, bad, ok etc.
