McDonalds Double Wide in Kaneohe
Oh 96744, I don’t know if this says anything or not, but your renovated McDonalds features a double wide drive thru. I’ve never seen a McD with dual lanes in Hawaii. But I guess you can get your yummy fries at twice the speed?
Or is it just so that the line of cars no longer blocks the shopping mall’s entry way?

Actually, I guess this would be the second? The McDonald's on Keeaumoku by Sam's Club/Wal-Mart has a dual lane drive thru. While in theory it sounds like a good idea, in practice it's not. What they do is alternate taking orders between the two ordering boxes. So in actuality, it's still just one big line. Dunno why they do this, things still back up the same if it's busy.

Thanks for the info. Never did see the drive thru at this popular McDonalds. I think it's primarily done to alleviate traffic lines snaking out to the streets??

The double lane drive thru is part of their newer formats. While the lines do converge to a single pay station, and continue onto a single pick up point, these are variables that can be controlled (for the most part) by McDs. The biggest variable is the time it takes the customer to look at the menu, and order their food. The double lane order station is supposed to assist in the reduction of this variable. McDs has probably studied it to death, and found that it helps their servicing times.
