Expect platter but no coffee – it's on order (7)
I believe the answer is:
predict
'expect' is the definition.
(thesaurus)
'platter but no coffee it's on order' is the wordplay.
'but no' is a deletion indicator.
'coffee' becomes 'latte' (type of coffee drink).
'it's on' is a charade indicator (letters next to each other).
'order' becomes 'edict' (synonyms).
'platter' with 'latte' taken away is 'pr'.
'pr'+'edict'='PREDICT'
(Other definitions for predict that I've seen before include "Foretell, prophesy" , "Prophesy - portend" , "Anticipate" , "Estimate consequence of" , "Foresee" .)
