WATCH: Forget Drive-Thru, Drone-Thru Really Happened At A Canton Starbucks

Show notes

Can’t leave the house for your Starbucks PSL? This guy might have the answer of the future. This video is of Austin Coon sending a drone through a drive-thru at a local area Starbucks (he happened to get a caramel mocha with soy and extra whip).

“Hey, I just placed a mobile order. Yeah. I know this might sound crazy – can I pick it up with my drone. Yeah? Awesome. I’ll meet you outside,” Coon says on the video.

The drive-thru (he got permission ahead of time) at Ford and Lotz roads in Canton was the target, and he came away with the goods, whipped cream and all.

Impressive, good sir. Impressive. Any time you want one of your drones to drop off some coffee for the Daily team, we’re game. Just saying.
