Red Rooster does not publish a drive-thru count, so we counted. Of the 312 stores in our database, 275 have a drive-thru and 37 do not.
That is 88% — high, but the exceptions matter if you are planning a stop.
Which ones do not have one
The stores without a drive-thru are almost all shopping-centre and food-court locations, where there is physically nowhere to put a lane. Names containing "Food Court", "Plaza", "Centre" or a level number are a reliable tell, though not a guarantee.
You can filter for this directly. On the store locator open the Features dropdown and tick Drive-thru — the list narrows to just those 275 stores, and you can combine it with a state filter or a suburb search.
