WOW!!! Didn't know all that about DQ. The one in Miami has been there forever and it has no seats...strictly a walk-up to the window one at a time...it occupies about 8' wide by 12' long...just big enough for 2 people to be inside to serve ya.
Thanks for the information, Scott!!!

For some odd reason, my city (110,000 general population) went for years without a DQ. Then, about two to three years ago, one opened up. For almost a years, cars would be five to ten deep to get in. It was near to impossible to just drive up and order something. You had make sure you have enough gas in your tank to sit through the wait. oldcajun123, remember how crazy what place would get? Too bad Blizzards are keto. Although, to be honest, our oldest Chick-fil-A has been that packed for well over the past decade at pretty much anytime of the day. |

 Yep I remember the craze , we called it Zesto, ice Creme spitting out of a machine. Nowadays reading about the uncleanliness of such machines, I think my Zesto days are over. HaHa. Hey I ate monkey in the jungle, I earned my badge..

I wish I had one of their chocolate nut sundaes made with hot fudge and wet walnuts right now. I was probably less than five years old when I enjoyed my first one.

Passing through Espanola NM on my back north it is not unusual to stop at the DQ for a SMALL strawberry milkshake. Still very good after all these years. |

Some locations are better than others I like the ones in the small towns that are independently owned they always make the best burgers.

It seems like I'm missing out here. We do have our own alternatives here though which tick the boxes for me.

When I was on the road for work I ate the Steakfinger Basket with the toast and gravy. Quite filling and easier to eat while driving. Important because once I got to the data center I might not get a chance to eat for 12 hours or more. Their Gutbuster hamburgers are still good too. The locals you meet in the country places are great.

Used to get them from DQ, but now they've discontinued them. So I get the chicken basket with toast and white gravy. Adapt and overcome |

No Doubt this is the most amazing "fact" of all presented.
Why they misspelled "Joliet", the company's founding city is odd.
