Drive through or walk in fast food restaurant

[Adam West]

Ran some errands at lunch and swung by Chik-Fil-A for a salad. The drive thru window looked like an easy 15-20 minute wait. I parked, walked in ordered, and was out in less than 5 minutes.

Am I the only one who looks at the situation and if there appears to be a long drive thru line, simply park, walk in and order your food to go?

Seems like a no brainer to me but I see it all the time.

I do the same thing

I rarely go to the drive-though

Besides getting out faster, if you go inside there's less of a chance they'll screw your order up.

I don't have a car, so you know...

Walk in.....seems people can't get orders right and I always seem to be missing something through drive thru.....

[MIB41]

I walk in unless it's raining. I figure I get a little exercise before my meal.

every trip a judgement call if there are more than 3 cars queued I pull to the front door an look in more than 5 people in line I drive away I'd rather skip a meal than wait for fast food

when my kids are with me we stay in the car I don't care how long that line is

Walk in,it seems alot quicker than the drive thru these days.

I gauge the traffic. If the line is long, I go in otherwise I keep my fat butt in the seat and tool up to the window to order my double cheeseburger. I gotta change that.

If I'm by myself...I'll go drive thru...with a buddy...dine in...

Like Joe Pesci says in Lethal Weapon 2.... "They **** you at the drive thru!"
Plus I don't drive or have a car either

In France they do the DRIVE BY on McDonalds.

[jcsites]

We always pass to a drive through restaurant specially during rush hours. We used to eat inside the car while on the road. Its somewhat a convinient way of having meals while on the road....

Just to clarify, assume you are by yourself and intend on doing a carry out order. Do you sit in the drive thru line even it is backed up with 20 cars but the inside looks empty or park your car, walk in, order your food and be out of there by the time 2 or 3 cars have passed through the drive through?
