I don't recommend this Sonic. Cashier was wrong and refused to ring my coffee up for $1.82, had to drive all the way from Paris Road to Lake of the woods for no reason. Manager who claims he has been there since '02 suggested that I go to the Lake of the woods location from now on since they do it right and on Paris they do not. That's common sense. Not only that but the female cashier hung up on me. I suggest the manager finds a new career because you can't possibly he happy working at Sonic for over 20 years and the female cashier should learn to place calls on hold like she lied and said she was trying to do instead of hanging up on customers. When you're wrong you're wrong. So I guess all the other Sonics are ringing up coffees for less than $2 but Paris location is the only ones who refuse to, just don't want to. They made my boyfriend a oreo blast shake, it was awful. Just don't go here, they're trash.
