I waited 30 minutes for a medium soda because they were “busy” socializing with each other

Went to drive thru and ordered a medium coke. $3.79 !!!!!! Are you kidding me ????? You're screwing your customers bigtime. I will never go there again ! Please explain why
I've been many times to my local sonic recently and the car hops have been really friendly and nice, I got Lauren last time and she was so upbeat and positive that I just say and enjoyed my food there where I normally just take it home - was just in a good mood that someone was just being friendly that day.

Received 2 flavorless carbonated slushys.
The drinks were almost clear, I am surprised that they didn't notice. 😑
I went there yesterday, I ordered my food and pulled up to the sign that says “pull up to here” with an arrow. I pulled up to where the sign was. There was a young girl with snake bite piercings on her bottom lip. (Don’t know her name) who told me to back up to the window because she doesn’t feel like walking back to me to give me back my card…. I told her there’s a sign that states pull up to here. She told me to ignore the sign.
This is very unprofessional and rude. If you don’t want people to follow directions. Then take down the sign or cover it up. Don’t think I’ll be coming back, the waits are long anyways.

Hailey was rude
Ordered online on may 9, 2025 at 9:15 and just ordered 2 route 44 sodas and when my PREGNANT WIFE opened her soda she discovered a broken piece of styrofoam in her drink so as a former employee of sonic they would clearly notice if there was any debris in the ice chest or by the fountains. So not only did they acknowledge the piece of styrofoam that could’ve been in the cooks ass crack and still filled the drink up and sent it out to us. I understand this isn’t fine dining but legitimately if you’re gonna work in food service, neglectful actions like this can lead to some major consequences. Do not order from this location if you want trash in your drink or food and god forbid this happens to anyone else. Never coming back to this dump again.
The mozzarella sticks are the best and the happy hour is the shit
Best milkshakes around (especially at 11:00pm)

The garlic burger is amazing. I still think about it. The flavor is perfect and it has a perfect crunch.

Above average food for a drive in but service is varies greatly from good to terrible. Last time they forgot were waiting and when food arrived two items were missing.

They were not taking orders. Severely understaffed.

Waited for 15 minutes for 1 #5 and the cars in the drive thru got served before me. The guy came out and asked me if I had this milkshake and a burger and drink and it turned out the food I ordered, they forgot about it somehow. So it just goes to show that sometimes you get screwed over and it’s probably not the fault of anyone
