Late entry in the 70s "three girls" cycle is set at a fast food restaurant with the three girls working for a drive in. (There are only two initially – they are waitresses working for Dick Miller who sells his business - but a third one joins.) There's lots of skimpy outfits but little nudity (or sex come to think of it), a lot of silliness and high spirits - including a car chase and some dopey gangsters - but little wit.
I found it hard to tell the three girls apart - the actors try but aren't that good. Their male love interests were more distinguishable (hunky architect, dopey son of evil businessman who wants to buy out the restaurant, random weird guy). The villain looks like Fred Clark but isn't; Dick Miller's the only actor in the cast you are likely to recognise, but it was edited by Steve Zaillian, who later became a major screenwriter. The director was Barbara Peeters who made the similar, but better, Summer School Teachers. Apparently this was based on a script written by Stephanie Rothman, Carhops (the credit here is given to "Dallas Meredith").
