We stopped in for the Happy Hour Special. Two Limeades, one classic Cherry Limeade. The second, a Strawberry Limesde. So refreshing on a hot, sunny, day! And the price is right. (Drinks are half price, from 2-4 pm) Thank you, SONIC !

Used the app to order ahead for an ASAP. Gave them 10 minutes before I got there, checked in to stall 13, and said my order was in the kitchen, then on it’s way. At about 10 minutes, I pressed the red button as it still wasn’t there. They said a receipt didn’t print, and they didn’t know who it went to. I told them my order and location, stall 13, just outside the door. Another 10 minutes, still nothing, press the button, no answer. After a few minutes of no response, I walked in. Told them the issue as nicely as I could and went back to my car. Another 5 minutes pass, we get our items, the food cold, and the slush melted. Sonic has gone downhill while their prices rise. Good thing kids like to hang out there; you’re running off adults with your poor service.

Service is fast and friendly enough. Just had the most rancid mozzarella sticks of my whole life from there, though. Like, they made me gag. Terrible.

We didn’t get any food here, but the slushes are AMAZING! The only reason I don’t give 5 stars is because the first booth we drove into didn’t answer us for about 5 minutes. We had to move spots and finally got service. At least the slushes made up for it.

Who doesn’t love Sonic! I loved my Ocean water and cheeseburger! I love the skating staff! The parking lot had some trash scattered throughout. Overall it was a good experience with quick service even though it was busy.

Pretty hard to mess up a sonic burger and fries, but it happened to me on Wednesday this week. I got my #1 cb and fries in record time so you think they would be hot, at least warm. Nope the fries had been sitting awhile they were dry and wrinkled and the burger was not fresh. I figured they had been made at least 30 minutes before I ordered. I was hungry and in a hurry so I did not complain. The limeade was good.

We told the guy that he didn’t offer us mozzarella sticks but I guess that promo stopped a while back ago and instead of informing us he just stared at us not saying anything trying to be intimidating or something…. He has a speech impediment and pronounces “R’s” as “W’s” so im assuming thats why he didnt want to explain about the mozzarella sticks.

I got my 6 in coney and the bun was a 12 in coney bun cut in half same with the hot dog it was a 12 in dog and it was also just cut in half not to mention the hot dog looked like a little stick bc it was burnt so bad on the bottom side of it I went to take a bite and couldn’t even bite into it and I ordered my coney and a medium drink and was sitting there for 30 minutes while there were only a couple other cars there

The food is pretty decent, the atmosphere is what you would expect at a sonic; nothing special. Service can take a lot of time sometimes and they ask for a tip when they deliver your food.

I ordered something on the app and had an add in. I paid for it. I checked my order and it didn’t have the add in. I pressed the call button and asked for my add in. The lady who answered the call button was extremely rude and only escalated when she was proven wrong with both the receipt and app that we had an add in at all. Believe her name was Ashley or Ashlyn. She refused to correct it in anyway, repeatedly saying she just “wasn’t allowed to”. She tried to refuse to give the receipt back too. Probably won’t go back to this Sonic considering they refuse to follow the way Sonic allows you to order. If you want add ins, you’re probably not getting them because “they’re not allowed to”.
