Sonic Drive-In is a popular choice for both breakfast and lunch, offering fresh and customizable options. Customers appreciate the convenience of being able to enjoy their meals from the comfort of their cars, as well as the friendly and helpful staff. The restaurant is known for its wide variety of drinks, including the ability to add unique toppings like pickles or fresh strawberries. While one customer had a disappointing experience with a gift card issue, the overall consensus is that Sonic provides a good meal and a great atmosphere. However, this particular location hasn't always measured up to others, with wait times feeling longer than they should. Sometimes drinks have shown up wrong or out of things, and burgers and coneys can arrive lukewarm. Service is also inconsistent; some carhops are friendly, but others drop orders off without much effort to ensure accuracy, leading to small mistakes like missing condiments or sides. The lot itself could use more attention too, not having the same tidy look seen at better Sonic locations. At its best, Sonic should be about convenience and speed, but this location just hasn't nailed those basics. If it tightened up on service and kept food quality consistent, it would be much stronger. For now, it lags behind other nearby Sonics. On the other hand, one recent visit was an awesome experience. The double cheeseburger did not disappoint, being perfectly cooked, juicy, and packed with flavor. The service was quick and friendly, and the retro drive-in vibe was loved. Everything came out hot and fresh, and the convenience of ordering from the car added to the overall experience. If you're craving a classic, tasty burger, Sonic's double cheeseburger is a must-try.
