Poll of the Day > There's like 45 cars lined up in my towns Starbucks drive thru

(+) Yeah! (+)

they literally need a police officer to control traffic. The line goes all the way around like 3 buildings.

I cant figure out why.

I understand its the only starbucks in town (while theres like 6 Dunkin Donuts) but that still doesnt explain why people would literally wait in a 40 car line...thats over an hour wait

---

Maybe everyone decided to get coffee at the same time?
But knowing starbucks, thats more then an hour wait

---

I bet the line actually moves pretty quickly considering they probably arent doing indoor orders I assume

the in-n-outs around here have had pretty much nonstop lines out into the street and sometimes even around the corner at intersections, but since it is just the drive thru it moves really quickly

---

stupid me just making my coffee at home, ok?

---

I just left one of those lines. It moves really quickly.

Its irritating when you've ordered something online somewhere but still need to wait in a drive through line behind ass nuts who dont like using phones/computers to order and insist on making the workers cook it all up for them there on the spot.

Before all this virus nonsense started itd always be possible to fast lane somehow with an online order and either just walk inside and grab it or yes drive through if nobody was there. Now all the people are in one single line in many cases and I'm once again having to wait behind jerks who just dont know how the modern era works.

A lot of folk line up outside one shop near me but not the shop that sells almost the same things at the same price. It's really baffling.

They move pretty quickly. I love Starbucks.

in n out having very long drive through lines is standard

Its probably because theyre giving out free coffee to some essential workers.

you can make Starbucks coffee at home

Like every day for the past 2 weeks, there's been a line for Captain D's that goes out on to the street, yesterday there were like 10-15 cars in the street in line

I don't understand it. They're not having any clearly advertised special, and they're not very good

Why buy Starbucks brand coffee if you're just going to make coffee at home? Get something better.

People need their sugar fix

My wife lost it in-line the other day...she was doing the opposite of what she was told to do at the other open Starbucks

---

Every drive thru in my city looks that way because apparently, UberEats drivers etc have been nibbling on people's food when they order in.

This is my Starbucks every morning
