comment Should I refresh result set after changing Dropdown values ?
No I don't think you want to modify the behavior of the query form between first and subsequent use because it's confusing for the user - its inconsistent. I don't know enough about your context, but it seems to me you might want to think about separating the fields that generate the initial results set, and result-led fields that further filter those results. Mixing the two sounds confusing.

However, I have moved my comment about the button positioning into a comment, and made my point clearer.

Whilst on topic of mobile below: having zoomed in, the two entry fields have the 'I'm drinking' button underneath them so I can see it on the same screen. On your first example, it's out of view and I have to scroll right to see it.

I disagree - the question was: 'How necessary is it to point out your call to action so obviously?'. I'm making the point that for mobile users, it is necessary to be very obvious because screen real estate is a premium and the message needs to be clear, obvious and readable. The OP's less obvious option using the call to action via light grey text inside the text field is not sufficient for mobile.
