It’s 7:30 AM, and you’re already running late when you pull into your usual coffee spot’s drive-thru. The speaker crackles to life with a garbled greeting you can’t quite make out. You place your order twice, wait four minutes in line, and drive away with someone else’s drink.<\/p>\n
This scenario plays out thousands of times daily across America, and it’s shaping where customers choose to eat. Our 2025 Drive-Thru Experience Survey found that 54% of customers “always” or “very often” pick drive-thru over dining in. These brief car-window interactions have become critical moments that build or break brand loyalty.<\/p>\n

92% of customers notice improvements, like visible order confirmations on digital menu boards<\/p>\n

But here’s what might surprise you: customers aren’t demanding revolutionary changes. They want the basics done brilliantly. Fast service, accurate orders, and clear communication top their wish lists. When quick-service restaurants (QSRs) nail these fundamentals and add thoughtful touches like visible order confirmations on digital menu boards<\/a>, 92% of customers notice the improvement.<\/p>\n Drive-thru visits happen during life’s in-between moments: the coffee grab before a big presentation, the dinner run after a long day when nobody wants to cook, and the quick lunch between back-to-back meetings. These interactions might last three minutes, but they happen when people are already stressed, rushed, or juggling multiple priorities.<\/p>\n When these touchpoints work seamlessly, they build trust. When they fail, customers remember. Long wait times frustrate 64% of drive-thru users, while 58% cite incorrect orders as their biggest pain point. That’s why getting them right is so important.<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section fb_built=”1″ admin_label=”Section” _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” background_color=”#eeeeee” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_row _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” text_orientation=”center” max_width=”1000px” module_alignment=”center” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n Across every demographic and time of day, three elements separate great drive-thru experiences from forgettable ones: speed, accuracy, and clarity.<\/span><\/strong> Here\u2019s why:<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row column_structure=”1_3,1_3,1_3″ _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”1_3″ _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_blurb use_icon=”on” font_icon=”||fa||900″ image_icon_width=”50px” _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” text_orientation=”center” global_colors_info=”{}”]Speed sets the pace.<\/span> Nearly three in four customers rank timeliness among their top priorities, with Boomers leading the charge. When someone’s grabbing coffee before a 9 AM meeting, long waits chip away at trust in the brand. Even a minute too long at the speaker can make a guest reconsider returning.[\/et_pb_blurb][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”1_3″ _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_blurb use_icon=”on” font_icon=”||fa||900″ image_icon_width=”50px” _builder_version=”4.27.0″ _module_preset=”default” text_orientation=”center” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n Accuracy matters most.<\/span> Half of Boomers and customers 77+ call this their single biggest priority. Unlike dining in, there’s rarely a chance to fix mistakes on the spot. Drive away with the wrong order, and that frustration follows you to your destination. It’s the clearest test of whether a QSR has its operations dialled in.<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_blurb][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”1_3″ _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_blurb use_icon=”on” font_icon=”w||divi||400″ image_icon_width=”50px” _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” text_orientation=”center” global_colors_info=”{}”]Clarity prevents chaos.<\/span> When 47% of customers cite unclear speakers as a major frustration \u2014 jumping to 50% among women \u2014 the message is clear. Garbled audio turns simple ordering into guesswork.

Millennials and Gen Z make up 65% of regular users, treating these quick stops as extensions of their digital-first lifestyle. They’ve never known a world without smartphones, so waiting in line without knowing their order status feels unnecessary.<\/p>\n Half of Millennials use mobile ordering to skip the speaker entirely. Gen Z takes it further, with 40% wanting real-time order displays. For them, visual confirmation eliminates the guesswork that older systems created. No more wondering if the cashier heard “oat milk” or “whole milk.”[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row column_structure=”1_3,1_3,1_3″ _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”1_3″ _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_circle_counter number=”65″ circle_color=”#c6c6c6″ _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” background_layout=”dark” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_circle_counter][et_pb_text admin_label=”Text” _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” text_orientation=”center” background_layout=”dark” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n Millennials & Gen Z make up 65% of drive-thru lane customers<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”1_3″ _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_circle_counter number=”40″ circle_color=”#c6c6c6″ _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” background_layout=”dark” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_circle_counter][et_pb_text admin_label=”Text” _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” text_orientation=”center” background_layout=”dark” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n 40% of Gen Z customers want real-time order displays<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”1_3″ _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_circle_counter number=”63″ circle_color=”#c6c6c6″ _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” background_layout=”dark” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_circle_counter][et_pb_text admin_label=”Text” _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” text_orientation=”center” background_layout=”dark” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n 63% of Boomers avoid mobile apps altogether for ordering<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.27.0″ _module_preset=”default” header_3_font_size=”36px” background_layout=”dark” module_alignment=”center” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n Boomers approach the drive-thru differently. Most skip the digital extras entirely, with only 5% caring about order screens and 63% avoiding mobile apps altogether. They prioritise human interaction and straightforward service. A friendly greeting, clear communication, and getting exactly what they ordered matters more than technological bells and whistles.<\/p>\n The most successful QSRs bridge this gap without forcing anyone to adapt. Clear audio systems help all customers communicate better. Restaurant digital signage<\/a> reassures tech-savvy drivers. Meanwhile, older customers can focus on the personal interaction. Consistent service protocols ensure everyone gets what they need.<\/p>\n Rather than choosing between high-tech and high-touch, smart operators create flexible experiences. A 22-year-old can breeze through with mobile ordering while a 65-year-old enjoys chatting with staff. Both drive away satisfied.<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section fb_built=”1″ _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_row column_structure=”3_5,2_5″ admin_label=”Text” _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”3_5″ _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” header_3_font_size=”36px” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n Customers aren\u2019t necessarily choosing where to eat based on technology alone. Still, 92% of those surveyed said digital features like confirmation screens or visible totals improve their overall experience once they\u2019re in line.<\/p>\n These small touches make a difference. Sixty-one percent said they like seeing what they\u2019re ordering on a screen, while nearly half want to see their total before they pay. And one-third appreciate estimated wait times or dedicated lanes for mobile orders. These features bring reassurance and momentum to an experience that can otherwise feel rushed or uncertain.<\/p>\n Consider the stressed executive grabbing lunch between meetings. Seeing the total before reaching the window lets them have payment ready. Or the parent juggling three kids who can glance at the confirmation screen instead of mentally double-checking the order. Digital features work best when they quietly eliminate friction rather than demanding attention.[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”2_5″ _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/moodmedia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/Fryday-menu-boards-case-study.webp” alt=”Mood Media Fryday Case Study” title_text=”Fryday-menu-boards-case-study” force_fullwidth=”on” _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” border_radii=”on|30px|30px|30px|30px” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_image][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row admin_label=”Text” _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.27.0″ _module_preset=”default” header_3_font_size=”36px” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n The next frontier in drive-thru technology is already arriving, but customer attitudes reveal a more complex picture than simple adoption curves suggest. Nearly half of customers (47%) are open to AI-powered ordering or have used it without major issues. Yet 40% remain uninterested or concerned about the technology.<\/p>\n The hesitation is less about rejecting innovation and more about needing practical concerns addressed. Thirty-seven percent of guests worry AI won’t understand their specific requests, and 24% fear losing the ability to modify orders mid-conversation. Anyone who’s tried to explain “light ice, extra foam, with oat milk instead of almond” to a voice assistant understands the challenge.<\/p>\n Gender differences add another layer of complexity. Women show more resistance to AI ordering, with 36% expressing no interest compared to 25% of men. Meanwhile, men are more likely to worry about comprehension issues \u2014 40% versus 34% of women \u2014 suggesting different concerns drive the skepticism.<\/p>\n The QSRs testing AI ordering are learning that success depends on designing systems that feel like helpful assistants rather than replacements for human cashiers. The technology works best when it handles straightforward orders while seamlessly transferring complex requests to human staff. Customers want the option, not the obligation.<\/p>\n As AI capabilities improve, early adopters will likely gain competitive advantages, but the data suggests a gradual rollout that preserves customer choice will outperform forced adoption strategies.<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.27.0″ _module_preset=”default” header_3_font_size=”36px” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n Customers welcome personalisation more than many brands realise. Eighty-two percent feel neutral to positive about QSRs collecting drive-thru data to customise offers. This acceptance spans generations. Even older customers who typically resist digital changes see the benefit when it’s done thoughtfully.<\/p>\n The key is relevance over novelty. When a regular customer sees “Your usual medium coffee?” or gets a recommendation based on past orders, it feels like recognition rather than sales pressure. Generic upsells feel pushy. Personalised suggestions based on actual behaviour feel helpful.<\/p>\n This approach builds loyalty through small moments of acknowledgement. Customers notice when brands remember their preferences, creating the foundation for long-term relationships that extend beyond individual transactions.<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section fb_built=”1″ _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” background_color=”#f8f8f8″ global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_row column_structure=”2_5,3_5″ _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”2_5″ _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_text admin_label=”Final Thoughts” _builder_version=”4.27.0″ _module_preset=”default” header_2_font_size=”40px” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n Customers return to drive-thrus that feel dependable.
