I'm an employee of a nearby restaurant/bar. This past Friday, I got off of work a little before 10PM. I considered grabbing a late dinner before I left, but instead decided to visit your new A&W/KFC location in Walpole on Providence Hwy (Rte 1). I am a big fan of your Original Recipe thigh/drumstick meal!
I pulled into the drive-thru, and there was one car ahead of me, and two or three behind me. There were about a dozen cars in the parking lot. I sat behind this one person for a while, it looked like they were ordering, but I couldn't tell because it was cold and my window was still rolled up. After a while, I rolled my window down. The person ahead of me was going "hello? HELLO?!". They eventually drove off. I pulled up, waited about 30 seconds, then decided to pull up to the window. I couldn't see anyone inside either the first or second window. I decided to go inside, since I could see others parked and getting out of their cars. I pulled into a parking spot up front, then noticed a man inside sweeping the floors. He was talking to one of the three people outside trying to get in: "We're closed!" The person asked "Even the drive-thru?". The man nodded.
I drove back around the building to pull out, and noticed two more people in the drive-thru. I leaned out and told them KFC was closed.
I'm not sure when you close, but I'm assuming probably 9, as it looked like this cleaner was the only one in the building. Yet people were flocking to the doors and drive-thru to order your tasty chicken! Did you ever consider making this one of your "Late Night" locations? The Taco Bell near the Walpole Mall is open late, and it's not unusual for me to stop in there after work, and see it packed! I think you'd see a great business from local restaurant/bar employees getting out of work, and also the bar crowd who's looking for a snack after a night out, but don't want to shell out all that money for bar food.
I can say you'd have one regular customer right here. Athough the seams of my work pants probably wouldn't appreciate it!
Give "Late Night" some consideration!
