I wait over 30 mins after checking in for a mobile order for 2 drinks. I watched as people pulled in after me, receive their orders. After receiving them the cups felt soft as if they were sitting on a counter the whole time I waited. When I tried it, the drink did indeed melt. Not wanting to waste anymore time, I went home. This location will more than likely not get any more of my business.

These people at this location did an outstanding job. They were one of a few places that were open for business after the storm. The employees were very nice and smiled. I thanked them for being at work and being open.

I placed an order 24 minutes before closing time. Then the lights turned off and I waited until after closing time. Then someone came out to sweep the lot. Another employee yelled across the lot to me that they are closed. I told him that I placed an order about half an hour ago. I asked them if I was going to get my food. He said they closed 30 minutes ago. And I would get a refund in 3-4 days. Its hard to maintain civility at times...

Made me pay for the wrong order, had to pay again ended up spending a total of 26 dollars instead of the original 10 dollars, yeah the refund is otw awesome but I won t have it for days, then after that they gave me onion fries instead of mozzarella sticks, so I had to drive back and get my mozzarella sticks. didn t even get an apology, I remained respectful as everyone should, but this remains my worst fast food experience, no apology, nothing offered for the bad experience couldn t even give me a few extra mozeralla sticks. I won t be eating here ever again.

Gloria the manager used profanity with my five year old child in her presence. This happened after sitting in the drive thru being the only car and waiting for her here milk shakes that were completely melted. I asked for the manager and was guest ion we why while I watched my food and drinks sit on the hot counter. Missing a cherry out of the smallest milk shake when you could clearly see there was once a cherry there! I will be filing a formal complaint! My advice . Stay far away from this Sonic It s better to drive to Edgefield Road.

If you decide to go through the drive-through and its raining just dont... park. I hate to do that to the employees because theyre going to get soaking wet going back and forth, buuuuuuut their awning might as well be non-existent. The amount of rain that dumped off of the covered overhang inside my car when I rolled my window down was insane!! I had to take a towel and dry up the water that was pooled and sloshing inside my car door cup holder, etc as well as deal with soaked-through clothing including jeans.

I will never go to that sonic again! 44oz strawberry limeade was spilled no sorry, had to ask for napkins she saw what she did with I dont care attitude. Received my drink and noticed it was full of ice, and I forgot to say no ice. Return to her saying no ice, please. She shut the drive thru door, and I could not see through the door. Another girl opened the door and handed me my drink with a straw and napkin and said nothing. I Thinking all was good, left. We stopped at the gas station. I opened the lid to pour in my Yehti cup, and it was full of ice! I was livid. They never gave me a new drink with no ice, but the same cup they first gave me. I accidentally spilled the drink on me, I was so upset, threw the cup away. Went back and argued with the manager why she gave me back the same cup with6 fullofice heasically said, I am a liar, an I asked for less ice. My husband, who is black, and I am white, got out of the car and came to ask her way she arguing with me, I am the customer? Another manager came and calmed the situation down and asked whated6wanted, a new drink or my money back? I wanted my drink with no ice. The managers got me my drink before I got it they wanted the cup I threw away. I told her the cup it spilled, and I threw it away. The manager said, Whatever, thats when I got mad. I said I would have my husband go back to Circle K and bring the cup to them. As I was leaving, I got my drink,with no ice finally. What a stupid hassle. Never go to Soni again!

The food was like lukewarm. I asked for sauces and I only got one and it wasnt the right one. They took a lot of time at the window there wasnt really anybody there there was five employees inside that I could see through the drive-thru I was disappointed with lukewarm food for money and time spent there.

Rude employees. Ordered a diet cherry limeade and was given a Sprite. When I pointed out it was wrong the girl was visibly annoyed and try to say it was correct. Its very easy to identify cherry vs Sprite. She went to fix the problem and brought back the exact same drink a few minutes later. Wont be wasting my money here again.

Ordered a drink in the app & selected pick up inside (I assumed this meant the drive through). Boy was I wrong. A Slender and sassy man (identified himself as a manager) proceeded to tell me that I needed to pull into a stall to get my drink. They were not busy, and no one was in the drive-through line but me. I asked him if he could just hand me my drink since I was already there and he said no I need to pull in and get the drink. No other sonic in the area has any issues about giving a mobile order through the drive-through. What a jerk!

I told the young lady how long I had been there and she just looked at me I think she apologized I couldnt hear nor understand her. Sad

Im impressed by how clever the person taking orders is. I asked for a combo with and add on of moz sticks. The combo is supposed to come with tator tots ....when my order arrived, and they werent there I was told he just upvharged for the sticks...so I had to order tots separate. By my math he got $3 off me...if hes doing that to every customer I imagine that franchise is banking.

Ordered the number 19 for breakfast. What I don t like, he didn t get me a receipt and instead of him telling me that the sauce was 28 cent before he went and got it, he told me after, expecting me to pay. That s messed up. I don t like the way he handled that. Had no problem paying for it, but dang!

Order to route 44 sweet teas in Drive-thru to only drive to find them unsweetened. So turn around went back advised of the issue they advise be with us in a moment. After 10mins they bring out new tea take old back for us to only take sip that fills our mouth with chunks of sugar as in they just poured like cup sugar in cold tea. I know $6.35 might be stupid to complain about but my time also and for them to not only server wrong once but twice is just poor service. Wheelchair accessibility: Drive up order in car

I used to enjoy Sonics. But this was the WORST meal Ive ever had. First of all I ordered onion rings and got tater tots. The chicken was fried real hard and where the coating flaked off the meat looked gray. The tater tots where extremely COLD. The only good thing was the drink. EXTREMELY disappointed. It will be a long time, if ever, before I try them again. Parking: Always enough parking

This sonic is going down hill fast. The only person there who knows what she s doing is Allissa. They do not care about their customers or quality of food or drinks that go out. When it comes to food I d rather go to McDonald s. Drinks are okay if you want a cup full of ice and a few sips of drink. They don t pay people enough to care about their work which interns mean the customer don t get quality items. Idk where you spend your money. But when you re spending the money you work for anywhere you want it to be up to standard.
