Finally tried Howlin' Ray's last week. I got the sando. I mean it was tasty. It was a really good sandwich so I get the hype. But as good as it was it wasn't THREE FUCKING HOURS IN LINE good

No and if the place is that popular they need to learn how business works and expand. Forcing their customers to wait that long is dickish and is probably costing them lost revenue for the people not willing to wait.

I'll stand in line for up to 90mins for good 'cue. Some places that routinely have long lines will have free lite beer for their patrons. 3 hours is too much even for the best of cue. I would never do it for a meme sando, though.

The other anon is right. If cattle are willing to wait in line for three hours to get a dumb sando, why not let them and milk the hype? It's the same reason Kanye makes people enter a raffle to get his $300 sneakers instead of selling them to everyone. Artificial scarcity builds the perceived value of your brand.

I am unfamiliar with OPs sandwich brand but presume they will expand eventually given the demand. Still, there are so many logistical factors to expansion while maintaining the integrity of the original product, not to mention the additional supply and labor crunches all service industry businesses are feeling right now. I bet you had fun playing CEO though?

1 hour? Easily especially if you're with good company (or alone). I mean, maybe not literally "standing in line" but waiting 1 hour, sure. Any longer, probably not

as a food delivery driver, most drivers won't wait past 40 minutes for food. if they're told they're gonna have to wait 40 minutes, they'll either cancel your order, or they're going to do personal shit like shopping or eating before they pick up your order.

there's a ramen shop like that near me that is very popular. but at least they're with the times and you sign up with your phone number and you get a 5 minute warning when you're almost up so you don't have to stand around and wait right in front of the restaurant with 100 other folks for an hour.

For the 10th anniversary of shake shack, they had michelin star chefs come in each day for a week at the Madison Park location and do their own burgers instead of the normal fare, but at normal shake shack prices. Daniel Humm (Eleven Madison Park, #1 restaurant in the world, 3 michelin stars, etc) did a truffle burger. And I mean legit big shavings of truffle. see picrel, it's the truffle fries they offered at one promo (didn't take a pic of the burger).

I waited six and a half fucking hours on my day off for two truffle cheeseburgers. They were delicious. One of the best burgers I've ever had. They were not worth the wait. They did give everyone a free chicago dog for waiting, which was nice as you were gonna be very hungry otherwise.
