We don't always have time to sit and dine. Chik-Fil-A won this one running away a year ago.

Chick Fil A no doubt...I mean they treat you like family there...how many places do you go where the drive thru attendant says "my pleasure"?

I don't care if they cuss at me, as long as it tastes good and is cheap.

Which is why I picked Taco Bell. Good cheap food, and they usually get my order right.

Wendy's wasn't on there or I would've went with them. I went with Taco Bell instead. Although they don't have my favorite foods anymore, they do have really good stuff for really cheap.

I didn't vote because I rarely ever do drive-in, but one time me and some of the guys on the LC basketball team were coming back from a team trip to the Globetrotters "show" at the Roanoke Civic Center (disappointing by the way, but at least I can say I've been to one now). We stopped by the Chic-Fil-A drive-in beside Little Caesar's. Turns out it was after hours, but the guy at the window was cleaning up and we asked if we could buy something, and instead of letting us buy stuff, he gave us a couple sandwiches, a box of chicken fingers, and a drink or two - all for free. I guess he figured since the registers were all taken care of for the night, he couldn't sell us naything (unless he wanted to recount), and the food was going to be thrown away, so might as well give it to someone who wanted it. That's what I call some drive-thru service!

Chick-fil-a, hands down. After that, Bojangles. Two places I feel I can trust to prepare my food. Everything else falls into varying degrees of sketchy.

Bojangles is usually a sit-down experience for me, but I voted for them anyway. Simply because of location, the one I most often visit is Hardee's--either for breakfast or lunch. Yesterday, the lady actually gave me a free apple pie with my order.

I got free apple pie at bojangles last week. They are my favorite food obviously, but I eat hardees a lot because they have good burgers, and mcdonalds if I'm in a big hurry and want cheap food. Also, mcdonalds for drive through dessert. Can we get a dessert category? I'd be interested to see the picks on that

Can I just tell you as a former employee of CFA.... I HATED having to say that. I will say CFA has always had the best service but I just couldn't stand saying that. i don't know why it just sounded weird to me.
