Super friendly staff! Our cashier, Jevon, was not only welcoming but also incredibly knowledgeable. As Canadians, we were blown away by the warmth and hospitality—it truly stood out. The restaurant was spotless, very kid-friendly, and had a warm, inviting atmosphere. Highly recommend stopping here if you’re passing through this town—you won’t be disappointed! And don’t leave without trying the sauces—the pretzel with ranch is an absolute must-try!

Love this place. Nice pepole, orders always right. Food is filling and tast good. The onion rings batter tast like birthday cake thougj, didnt mind that.

Get the app, can save cash, and you can order online and pick it up super easy. They have a bathroom but you got ti ask for key. They got inddor seating and a drive through. Also saw a few outdoor seating as a bonus.

Visited this location for the first time and was not impressed. I ordered the most expensive item on the menu, the double patty burger with bacon. The burger, with only one strip of bacon, was very greasy and had no pickles, relish, mustard, or ketchup, so it tasted like eating beef and cheese only. The chicken bites, although expensive, were pretty good. Very overpriced establishment, and I would not recommend or return.

Great spot in a rather industrial section of Elmwood to grab a bite. From burgers to hot dogs to shakes to breakfast, it’s all good. Ciara welcomed us as soon as we came in. She made sure to double check our order and recommended a way to combine good to save us money. Food was delivered via a person on roller skates, and Ciara came over to check on how we were doing. Space is clean, airy, and they offer outdoor seating, old-fashioned drive up service as well as mobile and drive-thru service. Convenient to area businesses, and we’ll worth the trip for slushes, and shakes on a hot summer day. Happy hour 2-5 with 1/2 price drinks and slushes.

Service was average at the cashier to the servers that come around to serving you; your meal. First time at Sonic. Had the Cheeseburger combo paired with tater tots, popcorn chicken and mozzarella sticks. Then their signature limonade soda. No complaints in their food, maybe the sandwich being too wet; as it seemed to been left in the wrapping too long as the other food was still being prepped. Also tried their BBQ sauce, marinara sauce, buffalo sauce, and honey BBQ sauce. Only the honey BBQ sauce was not worth it.

When I say that I am at this Sonic location at least 5 days a week, that is not overstating. Most of the time I get Bailee in the drive-thru and she’s the best. There’s never really a long wait when she’s in the window and my order is always perfect. You don’t get someone like Bailey in your average drive-thru. She’s always smiling and happy. When I hear Bailey over the intercom, I know that everything is going to go well.

I was very surprised by the quality of food you get for the price. Got the Oreo peanut butter sonic blast. It was delicious. The philly cheesesteak isn’t original but close enough, tasted great, loads of meat, and can’t complain about the price.

Overall amazing experience.

It’s 10 o’clock in the evening. You and your friends have recently enjoyed some cannabis. The munchies have set in, and you’re craving a smash burger or perhaps even a pretzel. You’ll need to drive up and order through their carhop service; they roller skate directly to your car. It evokes a sense of nostalgia, and the snacks are excellent. I often opt for the pretzel or even the onion rings; the taste is quite satisfying if you’re looking for something different.
