Manmeet Gill Review of Peter's Drive In

I decided to check this place out, as I heard good things about it. We went around 630pm, on a weekday. There was quite a bit of a line already, both in the drive-thru and the walk-up windows. Very busy place! We waited about 10-15 minutes in the drive-thru just to get our food, so if you are in a rush this is by no means a 'fast-food' joint.
The menu is minimal, which is expected - burgers, shakes, fries, and sundaes. We ordered two cheese burgers, a poutine, and an Oreo shake. The shake comes in one size and it is large. My sister and I got one to share and we couldn't even finish it. The shake was delicious, though! There were lots of flavours that I would love to try for next time.
The burgers we're great - even though we got single burgers, they were double thin patties. Not sure if a single means double and a double means triple? The 'peters sauce' on them really made the burger! Sweet and tangy like a BBQ/rib sauce.
Poutine was lacking - the gravy didn't really have a great flavour to it and seemed under seasoned - we had to add a couple packets of salt to give it a boost. The size was good though, large enough for two people.
A couple things to keep in mind - there are two drive-thru windows on either side of the building - the line starts off as one and then kind of curves to split into two - it's hard to realize this because alot of the cars stay in the line closest to the beginning of the drive-thru entrance - we drove around the line to the second window and were able to get our food quicker.
Another thing to note - this place only takes debit or cash - no credit!
