    This location is permanently closed, no idea who is allegedly confirming the business hours because it's clear from the outside there are no tables or anything inside. Wasted time and gas, real unhappy with Sonic rn.

    This location gets 5 STARS. Sonic gets NONE. Sonic decided to close this location and there are no other locations within miles of this one.

    I rushed to sonic right before 11am to get the drink special. I was told the .99 cent drink stops at 10am. 🤔 I had to show them on Google it says 11am. I also said other locations said the same. I was disappointed but I finally got my drink. So I gave them 3 stars for not keeping up with the specials.
