@kdfrawg When you consider that Gig Harbor:

  • Already has a Drive-Thru Starbucks
  • Already has 6 of them (including ones in Grocery Stores)
  • Is not that big of a town (around 9,000 in city limits according to Google)

Kinda agree. One local chain here (Cutters Point) is doing pretty well, with a number of locations nearby [cutterspoint.com]. There are a handful of others.
