Drive Through As A Food And Beverage Service

 Drive-through or drive-through is a type of food and beverage services service provided by a company that allows customers to purchase products without leaving the vehicle. This form was invented in the United States by Jordan Martin & lt; in the 1930s. Since then, it has spread to other countries. Hillcrest State Bank of Dallas, Texas, has introduced the first drive-through banking system in the United States. It was a building designed by George Dar, built in the 1920s opposite the SMU. The second recorded use of a bank with a drive-up window switch was in 1930 at the Grand National Bank in St. Louis, Missouri.

The drive-up counter only allowed  deposits at that time. Orders are usually placed through a microphone and received personally in  the window. This type of food and beverage services differs from drive-in in several ways. Cars form a line, move in one direction with a drive-through, and usually do not park, but drive-ins allow cars to be parked side by side. Usually carried to the window by a server called a carhop, customers can stay and eat in a parked car. However, to shorten the queue and avoid traffic flow issues, drive-through may switch to an "order in the window and then park in the designated location" model during peak hours. In this model, the customer receives food from the attendant when the service is ready. This leads to a perceived relationship between the two service models. Drive-throughs have generally replaced drive-ins of popular culture and are now found in the majority of modern American fast-food restaurants. Drive-through stores are sometimes referred to as "drive-throughs." Alternatively, this term will be added to the service. "Drive-through restaurant". Or "drive-through bank". Drive-throughs usually have a sign above the drive-through lane to tell the customer which lane is open. The type of sign used is normally lit and you can change the "open" message to a "closed" message if the lane is not available.

The drive-through window was not the only advancement in technology that occurred in food service however; it also led many restaurants to establish separate counters for people who wanted to place an order, but did not want to stay inside the restaurant. The invention of the telephone also allowed people to easily place an order ahead of time or even call their orders in when they were ready without having to be inside the restaurant.

The advancements that took place throughout the years only helped advance food service more, which can be seen today through many different types of services including online ordering and delivery, separate counters for mobile orders, and even electronic menu boards.

With all of the advancements in technology it is important to remember that food service employees are still people who need to practice general courtesy in order to make a customers visit a pleasant one. By providing good customer service along with appealing presentation you will be able to keep your customers coming back for more.
