    Took 19 minutes for a cheeseburger and breakfast burrito. Food was good, just don’t be in a hurry.

    Felt so bad, the staff was so kind. But the touch screen on stall #21 was so unresponsive that I was unable to tip and the staff had to run my card inside after trying 4 different cards outside

    30 dollars for two burgers fries and drinks? Do Sonic? That’s. A joke.

    Honestly ive been to other sonic's in the area and people were super nice at night. I understand your slowly closing and wanting to leave but first customer and last customers that come in should be treated kindly. This girl was very rude during the end of the order when I asked a simple question about the milk shakes and raised her voice being passive aggressive in a polite way... honestly wouldn't go back here and they took their time to give me my order and made a mistake.
