“Delicious chocolate. I’ll come here sometimes or go to the Chocolate Shoppe for gourmet candy when I’m shopping in Bryson. Friendly workers; mostly kids but they’re great with their service skills. The packaging is pretty and giftable.“

“One of the cleanest Sonic’s I’ve been to. The manager even came out to ask for something special I had asked them make, to make sure it was correct. Food was generous in size and tasted good. We bought these in the afternoon on the way home so the photos aren’t great but we re-heated the onion rings in the air fryer and they were fantastic!“

“I don't do fast food super often and usually DQ isn't at the top of the list. Had a triple burger with bacon. Not bad. The fries were actually really good, better than McDonald's. We had a new guy and he messed up the order but they more than took care of us with the fixes. It was next to the Tesla charger so it was easy better than sitting in the car.“
