Could do well in this area, but the pervasive suburban mentality here has trouble conceiving of something without a drive through, even though it seems to work well in many other places.

Disagree - Farrow just up the street seems to be doing just fine.

Is Farrow considered a fast food chain? If not I think the main part of my point was missed.

Farrow absolutely serves fast food. As do the donair/shwarma restaurants in the area. As does Banh Mi Day close by on Jasper Ave.

This serves as a model for what can be done in the neighbourhood without a drive-in.

Not trying to be disagreeable here, they may be a model and perhaps something like this will go in this space.

Before somewhere, it might have been here or elsewhere, A&W was mentioned, so it was something like this I was thinking of when I made my comment.

To clarify, I am not saying it can't be done, but that such chains or their local franchisees (if applicable) may not feel it will work.

This city really has to start thinking that being in a car endlessly isn't the be all and end all of life.
