    I stopped in the morning 6 months ago. I asked for a route 44 Sprite- with one of my flavor combos (blackberry, raspberry, and strawberry), and a BLT toaster. When I got to work and tasted my Sprite combo, I was very surprised. I could actually taste the flavor in my drink. I went back the next morning and ordered again. This time with another flavor combo ( peach, mango, and strawberry). And the BLT. Again, I was greatly surprised. And my BLT was great again. Actually had mayonnaise on it, not just a dot. The bacon was fresh and not burnt. The lettuce and tomato was fresh and crisp. Lindsey is the woman at the drive thru window. She is polite and cheerful thru the entire transaction. She asks how my morning is going, etc. She is always smiling. She remembers the customers. I have made this Sonic part of my daily routine because of Lindsey's service. I think the owner needs to recognize the high quality service Lindsey gives. I will continue to make this my morning stop.
