Sonic Drive-In

$$$$$$ $ 3.11 for a large drink?! One of the priciest sonics I have ever been to but I paid it cause I love it. You can get ice by the bag for $ 2.49.

The tater tots here are delicious and so is the crispy chicken sandwich! Skip the regular fries. Ask for the honey mustard dipping sauce for the tater tots!
I didn’t like how we had to talk though a machine (dining in) while there was a glass booth with about 6 workers inside… like why can’t you just take my order face to face. I see you, you see me. There’s no need to repeat things or ask for things to be repeated through a scratchy microphone when I’m dining in! I felt like I was at a drive through, just standing and without the car. The dine in place is outside… which we didn’t enjoy because we had flying company (Mosquitos)…I also didn’t like the concept of the waiters wearing roller skates. This poor girl came with our orders in roller blades and dropped one of the drinks, we all had a heart attack for her and it wasn’t a pleasant experience… it was really scary and awkward…

I don’t know why I keep coming back to this place. It’s in an awkward location and when I order at a stall I have issues resolving payment with the car hop. Not as fast as other sonics, but not as busy either. Happy hour is half priced drinks– I’m addicted !

Some guy tried to send me a backhanded compliment saying that the jet noise was my freedom flying by. Fuck you dude. My husband is Spec Ops and gone 9 months a year defending YOUR freedom on a scale you can’t even fathom. Lecture me? I don’t think so.
It’s still loud as shit here, it’s easier to hand the carhop your order on a sheet of paper.

The commercials are so awesome that I was so happy to finally get to a Sonic. My hot dog was so small, I could have eaten two but it was delish. The onion rings were meh. They had an after taste. I loved that the servers wore rollerskates and my slushie was TOO SWEET (it did have candy in it). I’d definitely come back and try more things the menu is huge!

Very very very badddd service! We were ordering from the car park area and was ordering via their speaker system. The person helping us was in a rush and didn’t ask if we have more items to order after the first one. She gave us our total right away. When we told her we have more order, she didn’t respond anymore. We left and went to Wendy’s where we had a much better experience. Management of this site needs to train their staff on courtesy.

Waited 35 minutes for our food with no real excuse. Rude and understaffed. I thought fast food was supposed to be reasonably fast.

Due to the repairs on I-​264 at night, I chose to avoid the highway (better on the car anyways since the highway quality is poor), and almost as if there was a toll bridge — we had to stop at Sonic! As a result we hit this place many times during our two week stay in the Chesapeake VA/​Virginia Beach area. Thankfully they had ½ price shakes from 8pm so my kids got those many times.
* Lunch
Family picked up 2 American dogs with extra ketchup and one had the new pretzel cheese and bacon (good tasting bun) and a Chicago dog. All tasted great. You ask for extra ketchup and the like but somehow it never makes it to the waiting staff. (all are like this we find). Here at least, the guy came with our food and returned with the extras we needed. No complaints.
* Shakes /​Desserts
On each visit the kids got shakes — when they got home one of them didn’t finish all of it — and I tasted the peanut butter — REAL! I half expected some flavoring. Not here. We had a really nice banana split and my wife LOVED their sundaes.
I tried the hot fudge cake with ice cream — cake was fine but it definitely could have used more ice cream. (cake sucks up the ice cream. so you need more ice cream). Other than that, a pretty consistent location.
There was a girl — I wanted to make note of her name better — it was close to Tequila but more like Taquita. She was nice and on two different nights when she brought us our shakes — she also gave us mints — sometimes they do that but not always — but that was her thing. Very friendly.
This location is also rather large — with at least one more row for cars than most. At a location close to the hotel (
) it was a disappointment.
Visited July ¹⁶⁄₂₀₁₃ with many others after.

Love the diet cherry lime aids. Triple thick chocolate shakes rock. The new pretzel dogs are pretty darn tasty. Enjoy the breakfast burrito… but why are they so small now?

Never tried Sonic before so when I was driving on Laskin Rd. in search of the exact location Captain Georges Seafood we ran by the Sonic… First the ride was for the kids as they wanted something to eat. They saw the 5 guys… but we werent at Captain Georges yet. So I found it and made a U Turn… first stop SONIC… I was impressed with the set up… all these outside order screens that you can pull your car up too. I hit the order button… Ordered my food and swiped my card. The pretty young lady was out on her skates in less that 3 minutes with our food. I was astounded at the service. Super duper top notch I will be back. I ordered the Chicken sandwich with bacon and cheese… str8 yum with my diet busted but there was a party in my tummy that was so yummy. Way to go Sonic I will be back…

I am from chicago and grew up on (chicago hot dogs). I could never find them in the south. Now they are here and they are great. I can now get my fix and not have to drive 900 mi

Sonic! Awesome PB shake and cheesy chili fries!!!
