Fast Food Drive Thru's...

[dunfree]

Since I have not been in a McD's in decades, what qualifies as ludicrously expensive? I can get a filling meal for me from Panera for $14, maybe $12 at Chipotle, $13 at Noodles. What's a Big Mac and Fries (no drink) go for these days?

a Big Mac meal (including drink) is ~$9.50+ tax. A Big Mac + medium fry is on a deal day $5.50+ tax. That’s prices via their app, today, for pickup. Note prices vary by location.

i think chipotle & othe Mexican tastes way better but I’m not sure it’s much healthier.

Last time I went through a McD's drive-thru while travelling, I saw a Big Mac meal for about $15 and I noped on out of there and left empty-handed. Just couldn't bring myself to do it.

ok, so it is much more expensive then it used to be but it is still cheaper than the options I go to. My current fast casual fave is this place but it only has two locations, Boulder and Lakewood (though it feels like it is ready made for franchising).

bonjangles and cookout do me right every damn time. can never understand what is coming through the speaker but i really don't need to as long as they understand me the first time and they do.

franchising ruins most places.

Chick-fil-a usually has two to four teens on ipads outside taking the orders then another kid to take your payment and then you drive around to pick up your order. Don't even bother ordering on the Chipotle app anymore since there is sizable difference going inside to order in person compared with ordering online. I stopped going to other places due to price, service, and crap food. Thank dog for Waffle House and Whataburger, 24/7 hour service, always hits the spot after a night out drinking.

Should all of this be posted in the "first world problems" thread? Take a lap, beaters.
Sorry, my inner buttflake appears to be verbalizing...

stash that shit

haha, yeah buddy you're right

A Big Mac + medium fry is on a deal day $5.50+ tax.

Yikes, $32 CAD!!

I don’t go to McDonalds anymore but my son likes it and uses the app all the time. He is pretty happy with it. If I’m doing fast food, it’s Wendy’s and I’m almost always going inside cause the drive thru line is ridiculous.

On the other hand, I am one of the millions that worked at a McDonalds as a teenager and I think I learned a lot from the experience. Spent one summer just cleaning the place overnight while it was closed. I learned some very high level mopping skills there.

Where at? Legit curious b/c i design MCD sites as part of my day job and have never seen a 3 lane DT.

I90 exit 32. But you're correct. Only 2. 3rd lane is a drive around not through.

So are you the reason the ice cream maker is always broken?

I rarely eat fast food but I have to say, Homophobic Chicken always has unbelievable customer service. We stopped at the one in Orem recently on a road trip and even my daughter commented on how nice they are.

This makes me even more suspect of their operation.

i been in the back of all of them cuz we get the contracts

you got a server and a bunch of screens running the POS and some bump bars which advance the screens in the kitchen as the kid makes your burger

ever thing is encrusted with grease, the phone is all greasy when you use it, go for a whiz and everything is greasy,

so I'm changing a bump bar and old condiment are falling in the condiment tray

did i mention I don't do FF ?

Tim hortons was probably the best of the worst

I just spent $27 for dinner for one person at portillo's in Chicago. That's arguably a step up from McDonald's, but still...

My dog loves his Sunday morning pup cups at the local Starbucks drive thru.
