A drive-thru would be a disaster, their average turnaround time on orders is like five plus minutes drive-thrus need to be able to be pushed out in generally under 2 minutes.
I feel like people forget that they don’t pre-cook their burgers. Drive-thru’s only work because a lot of the food is pre-made based on popularity and just sits under a warmer
I feel like that’s stretching the definition of drive-thru. I guess you still don’t need to get out of your car but it feels like curbside delivery with extra steps
Also, Culver’s has a tendency to turn their burger patties into weapons by overcooking them. If they make them right, they’re amazing. If they burn them, they’re worth more as throwing stars than as food.
I would go to five guys if one of them would put in a drive thru. Drive thru food and ambiance but as a sit down restaurant? Why?
this is a great point. it does seem like the perfect place for a drive thru

culvers isn’t quick service either, but they do it.
you order, pay, and if there’s a line behind you (there always is), you get a number, pull ahead and park. they bring it out.

this is a great point… But… we are post-covid. i would bet a non-insignificant percent of their orders are now ‘pre-ordered’ unlike before
