A Jack-In-The-Box in San Francisco (The Geary Street one) decided to keep its drive through open until midnight while the walk-in part closed at 8pm, which bugged me as a bicyclist. (They wouldn't serve me without a motor.)
Eventually the place opened up a walk-in window for after hours service, so I wasn't the only one bothered.
Take a chainsaw with you next time. If they complain that you don't have a motor, offer to demonstrate to them that you do in fact have one (without being threatening of course).
I would try riding up while revving my mouth as a motor.
“This is an e-bike. The motor is in the hub.”
What's the reasoning behind that
Less staff needed?
What's the reason to not serve people on foot at the drive through if they closed the walk-in?
I've been told it's a safety concern because people can get hit
I think it's related to safety and insurance but I don't really get it.
