I feel like Jimmy johns and chick fil a are the only truly fast restaurants anymore. For JJ you do have to go inside, but they often make your sandwich and complete payment in less than a minute, maybe 5 minutes max.
Meanwhile I've been to other drive throughs where even with very few people in line, it somehow takes 10/15 mins to get your meal. Plus, it's often incorrectly made and expensive
Chick fil a is homophobic; that might be keeping demand lower than it would be otherwise.
There are plenty of other mediocre chicken sandwiches that don't come with a side of hatred.
It's still damn popular here in gay-loving California, anyway, and has no problem hiring gay people besides. The people who own the chain suck, but that doesn't mean all the individual restaurants do.
Hey I'm in California too! ✋️🌞🤚 But people around here do not universally love gay people as much as the rest of America thinks - as you know, a disturbingly large percentage of us are bigots. They don't care who profits.
Yeah, it varies wildly depending on the area. Like anywhere else, rural areas tend to be full of bigots.
I mean it’s an overtly Christian organization
I dont agree with their views, but I really dont think it's affecting their demand as much as you think. Lines are always insanely long - they just move them through very efficiently. By taking orders/payment as soon as you enter the line and knowing which car to give the food to when you get close to the window, the line never stops moving
How much do I think demand would otherwise be?
The one by my work always has people lined up down the block around lunch time and still 10x faster than the BK next door and they don't fuck my order up every other visit.
