Taco Bel has been titled as the fastest drive through. While Chick-fil-A was labeled the slowest but with the most customer satisfaction.

I believe that this claim is neither right or wrong! After researching for articles to backup this claim, I came across this article by New York Post. And in this article it does only give a written response about Taco Bell being the fastest fast food drive thru, but at the end of the article it shows a graph of various different fast food chains and the time it takes to get your food and Chick-Fil-A is at the bottom. But as I continued to research more I found this article by Food & Wine, and they claim the complete opposite opinion about Chick-Fil-A. In this article they don't even mention Taco Bell at all.

Truthfully, I do believe there can be a statistical answer to this claim but in the end I feel it just depends on the location in which your ordering from!

According to a recent analysis of the connection between speed and consumer satisfaction at fast food restaurants, Taco Bell had the fastest drive-thru time. QSR Magazine also states that Chick-fil-a had the slowest time, but ranked higher in customer satisfaction due to their friendliness and accuracy. Mystery shopping visits helped gather data for this study, where researchers would time the waiting period and evaluate the accuracy of the orders they received. They noted that Chick-fil-a consistently had much higher traffic than Taco Bell which suggests that customers value friendliness and accuracy over efficiency.
