    The worst Sonic I’ve ever been to. They consistently forget parts of your order. Which makes you go back to get it. Be sure to check your bag to be sure you have everything if you make the mistake to visit this place. Shut it down and build another gas station or something. Would be an improvement.

    Just order slushes and drinks and the guy that was taking the orders was just sneezing and touching the lids of the drinks without gloves, like discusting if we get sick I know from where my kids got it. Why have workers work ill not cool for the customers.
