    This will be our last visit to this sonic. So far I’ve been waiting for 30min for 4 soft drinks. Last week I waited over an hour for hamburgers. While the servers are kind they are chronically understaffed and unable to do anything in a reasonable amount of time.

    Came here on Sunday around 11ish: Drive-thru was slow, but food was fresh! Order was all correct and the cheese was melted on my burger. I can’t say the same for other Sonic locations in the area.

    Pushed the order button at 10:30, waited, no one took our order, pushed it again, finally somebody on the intercom responds at 10:45 saying they can’t take our order because they close in 10min. 30 minutes should’ve been enough time. They weren’t busy. Sounds like they did it on purpose to not have to take our order at all.
