Usually, whenever I go to Wendy's on a Wednesday (pay day, the day I actually take the time to get a decent lunch) I'll not use the drive-thru to make my order. I'll usually go inside to order in line and make sure they get everything right.

What do you guys do?

I've only used the drive-thru about three times, so I usually go inside to order everything I want. I trust getting it in building more than though a window.

Who knows what might happen between the window of the car and the building.

Always inside for a few reasons:

A) If they screw up your order via Drive-Thru, you end up running inside anyway.

B) In some cases, you end up getting your stuff faster. I timed it with a friend of mine once. I think I beat him bye a minute getting my food inside.

C) From personal experience at Wendy's, if you get in a crowed line inside and order one of the bigger burgers, the servers have a tendency to add a little too many patties to your bun. Last time I managed to get 6, 2 above the limit there. (+ Bacon ) How's that for a non-FDA approved burger.

I prefer just ordering at the drive-thru and taking it home.

Even if it's slightly chilled, I enjoy eating in the comfort of my chair at home rather in a car or next to Shithead McCoughAlot who doesn't understand common courtesy.

I tend to go inside for larger orders (such as burgers, fries, and such) that are easy to screw up and to use the drive-thru for smaller orders (such as drinks).

I prefer the drive through, basically because I don't have to get out of the car.

I really like the drive-thrus where they put your order up on a screen as you say it to confirm it.

By myself: drive-thru.
With others: inside.

I hate juggling more than one order at a drive-thru, especially when each person is paying separately. It's probably a huge pain in the butt for the poor kid working the window, too.

Drive through. Most of the time I get fast food, it's with someone else in the car, so they're driving and I'm eating. Unless I get Chipotle, with my friend, in which case we go in of course then go to the car to eat.

Well, since I don't have my car down here with me, I'm somewhat limited in my options.

However, if I did drive somewhere, chances are that I would go through the drive-thru.

No, you just can never decide.

Usually both. It just depends on how long the drive-thu line is compared to inside. But if its early and I am no the way to work, then drive-thu...just because I don't feel like getting out of the car.

For me, I just go in and order to go. There's no real reason, it's just a habit.

Most always we just go through the drive-thru, but during the school year whenever we went to Steak 'n' Shake we went inside so my mom could use the bathroom.


And yes, I'd rather eat at home (or in the car) than next to other random people.
