    Holy crap, they must be on hard times at this Sonic! They just charged me .20¢ for 1 ketchup and 1 mayo packet! They gave 2 packets of salsa that I did not ask for for free and then upcharge the ketchup for crying out loud! I know it's not a lot of money but, it is the principle of the thing... I have never paid for ketchup at a fast food restaurant in nearly half a decade on this planet... Didn't pay for ketchup across town either. Also, 3 people in the car and 1 peppermint, screw you!

    Hi I really hope a manager reads this. Please check who you have on staff this evening October 2, 2025. There was a young girl at the drive through window with brown hair and heavy eye makeup with the worst attitude. She got my order wrong and decided to be rude the entire time from ordering to receiving the order. It was so bad I decided to leave a review rather than go back and risk having her spit in my drink. She really should be written up or find a different place to work if shes going to insist on being that way. Because now im leaving a review for the way she represented this establishment.
