Abstract
Disclosed is an establishment designed to facilitate dispensing food or other commodities to customers in automobiles from drive-up stations or windows. The establishment has two of its sides joined in a curved segment with one dispensing window on the curved segment, and dispensing windows on adjacent sides. Multiple egress lanes are disposed such that at least one lane is accessable from each dispensing window even while automobiles are parked at the other windows. The use of a curved segment rather than the typical corner arrangement facilitates using multiple egress lanes to significantly increase traffic flow.
