    Genuinely such bad service for what the food is. Plan for a 30+ minute wait for your order, even if you're just getting a soda and a fry with an empty parking lot. I've had to refund my meal before when the wait got to almost an hour and I had to get home. So dumb.

    They only accept online orders now it seems. I have tried to get food here 3 times over the last 2 weeks and it has been the same every time. I used to stop frequently on my way home from work. Not any more.

    I would leave a 0 star review if i could. Every time i go to this sonic i have a terrible experience. This time i ordered a reeses blast and all they did was sprinkle a tiny bit of a crushed up reeses on top. No chunks mixed in the ice cream at all. Never going back. Shop local.

    Awful staff. Awful service. Closed the stalls early and didn't even leave a sign for drive-thru only! After finally being able to talk to staff and be directed to the drive-thru we received our order however it was wrong. I didn't receive the sauce I paid extra for, my pretzel did not have salt on it, I did not recieve sweet cream in my drink that I paid extra for and one drink was completely wrong. The staff then blatantly lied to our faces saying it was correct. I ordered a cocoberry cream and recieved some watered down, blue drink that had no cream and no strawberries and the staff REFUSED to fix it. GET NEW STAFF!! I honestly have lost all respect for this location. They consistently close early, mix up orders, refuse to fix issues, have incorrect order times, lie to customers to avoid doing their jobs, and are rude.
