Sonic Drive-In

Don’t go through this drive-​thru. You will be here forever! Food is average, service is poor.

Deserves NO stars now. My family moved to the local area 2 months ago and were happy to be living so close to a Sonic. Our first few visits were great. They were fast, the staff was friendly, and the food was typical. Drinks didn’t have much ice in them, but that was easily solved by asking for extra ice. The speaker system at the drive-​thru was a bit wonky, but they got our orders correctly, so we guessed that it was just that their microphone was turned up too high.
The last few times I’ve ordered Chicago-​style hot dogs they’ve come with either toppings missing or more in the cardboard tray than between the buns. I’ve given up on them getting the celery salt & poppy seed on the hot dog at all. Unfortunately, there isn’t another Chicago-​style hot dog option in the area other than Sonic, and no where sells the pebble ice that I’ve found.
This past week we visited the restaurant twice, once for dinner and the 2^nd time for bags of ice. After being asked to repeat our order multiple times during both visits, we were then treated poorly at the window. When delivering our food through the window the staff member shoved it at my husband without saying a word. They then turned to walk away so abruptly that my husband had ask, «Excuse me, is the receipt in the bag?» while catching the food. In a clearly irritated manner the staff member flicked their hands toward the food and said, «It’s on it,» and continued to walk off.
During today’s visit I spent 10 minutes waiting in the drive-​thru line for 2 bags of ice after going through what seems to have become the speaker yelling routine. My ice sat on the counter beside the window melting most of that time. The two vehicles before me had both ordered before I pulled up to the speaker box, so it wasn’t indecisiveness of their customers that delayed the line. While waiting an employee walked a drink out to the vehicle behind mine, delivered their drink, took their payment inside and brought the card & receipt back out to them-​all while my ice was melting.
There is another Sonic down the road in the opposite direction. Hopefully they have decent customer service. I love pebble ice, but not enough to pay for it at an establishment where employees behave this way.

Never again will I made the mistake of coming to this dump full of rude a$$ employees. I ordered fries and waited for almost 45 minutes just to get cold fries and when I ask for some ketchup. The chick did everything but practically throw it at me and then VERY rudely ask «now can you leave or do you need to bother me with something else» like, are you f***ing kidding me?! Just wow!

Went to Sonic’s last night because they had the shakes at half off. Waited a half hour for someone to answer through the speaker. Went through the drive thru, it was a ten minute wait. Shakes are usually $ 4.00, so if they’re ½ off it s/​b $ 2.00. Got to the window and the little fella said it would be $ 2.99. That’s not half off. Like, where did they go to school. Won’t be going back.

Drinks are good.
Food is meh.
Service is Bleh.
Speed of service… sloooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooow.

Horrible service, the workers come of as extremely rude and unhappy to serve you. The food is pretty bad. I would recommend driving to the sonic just a little further up the road for better service and food. Bottom line– I would only go to this sonic for the drinks.

Sad to take away our Military discount. To make it worse you charge for syrup? My French toast sticks were so burnt no amount of syrup could cover that.

This place is great for summer eats. You can drive thru or sit outside under the over hang. They have lots of hot dog choices, which are all delicious. They have the best mozzarella sticks in town too… must try them. The new pretzel dog with melted cheese and bacon is delicious.

Today was the first time I came to Sonic Drive-​in, and it was such a unique fast food experience! Drive into a parking space, you will see an electric order machine with menu. Push «click to order,» and you are greeted by an Sonic staff. Then place your order, and ta-​da, in a few minutes, someone will deliver food to your car! I liked the fruit smoothies they had made with low-​fat yogurt and fresh fruit. The tater tots were good too.
