Stopped by here after rehearsal for a wedding in the area. The burger was a little messy, not sure why some locations seem like they want to put all the condiments in the container on the burger, and at others they are made to perfection. As you can see in the picture, it looks as thought the top bun of the burger might have been used for a family feud button. Tater tots was really good. People were nice, but the restrooms were locked. Could use some tidying up around the place to make it look more welcoming. I would suggest you all give them a try.

They served me corn dogs with hard shells and the meat inside is turning green I feel so sick right now. This location either needs to close or everyone here fired because who serves green meat to people 🙁 And look at the other reviews, people get served raw meat at this location too! They’re just wasting everyone’s time and money, go literally anywhere else, even the dumpster in the back might be better smh.

My friend and I did a mobile order and we ordered slushies, burgers, and onion rings. The slushy and burgers were pretty good but the onion rings tasted like they were made in cinnamon batter and they were too sweet. I feel like I wasted my money because I couldn’t even finish them and I ate them with sauce.

They are way over priced. Food presentation is horrible. Food looks old. Employee at drive thru seemed like they had an attitude when I told them they missed a whole meal. They gave it to me and even the other employee admitted she read it wrong. Just not good vibes.

We ordered two popcorn chicken and two drinks. First, it took them awhile to take our order (we were the only ones there), then when she came out, she only had one drink. She told us we were only charged for one, and sounded like we were bothering her when we asked for the other one to be added.
I told her my cranberry grape limeade only tasted like grape, and she said let me see your receipt. She said that the receipt said cranberry limeade add grape. She then walked away with the receipt, and threw the receipt away as she went back inside.
I felt she didn’t care and just wanted us out of there. It was still an hour before they closed, but she treated us like we arrived five minutes before they closed.

Finally ate at Sonic again. It was so bad. Had a big order for numerous people. Two burgers that were Triple All-Americans, (that come with bacon), one was ordered with no tomato due to the person having GERD. It came WITH tomato and NO BACON! One burger was prepared right.
Two other burgers, (2 double burgers were ordered with NO pickles and NO BACON due to religious reasons). BOTH burgers were prepared WITH EXTRA pickles and BACON!!! Trashed.
Two Coney footlongs. The hotdogs were awful, absolutely awful. Tasted old and were not eaten.
Two large orders of chili cheese fries with extra chili and extra cheese, (at a cost of $2 each order). What we got was two small orders of hard old fries with around a tablespoon of chili and cheese on each order.
The ONLY thing they got right was ONE burger and ONE order of fries out of a huge $60 order.
Sonic will never, ever get another dime of our $$ again. When my husband picked up the mobile order, he told them, ‘Okay guys…let’s make sure it is right this time because we are always missing food and we didn’t get a refund either time.’
They got really nasty attitudes with him about it. Wish I could leave a -5, but it isn’t available.
Sonic is one of the worst fast food places in the US!
UPDATE:
Talked with SONIC Customer Care. They added some semi free; By this and get this free, stuff of their choice to our account which quickly expired before we got a chance to even use them. They also were going to have the manager of the involved store to call me and he/she never did.
So be aware that if SONIC makes a mistake on a pickup order, they get to keep the money UNLESS you drive all the way back and have them make it right. Since that would have been another 30 mile round trip, that was out of the question.
We are done with SONIC unless they give us the $ back they stole from us.
Last night we made an online order for pickup around 9:30 pm. We had put our dog down due to illness and my husband had spent a couple of hrs burying him. Afterwards, and after such a long sad day, we were starving. We placed a Sonic order at the Lexington Rd Sonic in Athens, Ga.
So my husband drives 15 miles to pickup the food order and they couldn’t find it. Then they finally found it and supposedly prepared it. The food was ‘okay’. And the burgers were really good. But we ordered condiments and a large mozzarella sticks that was $6.89 that we did not get. My husband was NOT going to drive another 30 mile round trip for the mozzarella sticks. So I called repeatedly so they could issue a refund. They would not answer. Then I called again this morning and they would not answer. So I then called Sonic customer service only to be told they cannot issue me a refund, only coupons for certain products of THEIR choice, not ours.
What place of business REFUSES to issue refunds for products not received? That is downright theft and should be illegal!
On top of that, I tipped in advance for a job well done that was far from well done, so that really should be refunded as well.
I worked in the service industry for 10 years waiting tables and I would never have expected a tip in advance of service. I am DONE providing tips without knowing if the service is good or not.
And I am done with Sonic unless they make this right…which they say isn’t possible. We shall see about that.

Very disappointed with our service at sonic. They didn’t put any ice in our drinks, and when we asked for a cup of ice because we didn’t get any in our drinks they made us pay for it. My drink also had strawberries at the bottom that were fermented and tasted like gasoline. When we got home, the bacon on the burgers were basically raw. The food was not good at all and with being pregnant this was a huge health risk. Absolutely disgusting. Do not go here.

I wanted a supersonic bacon double cheeseburger with no mayo and no lettuce. The girl kept taking off tomato. She did it three times. Finally I got frustrated and said just give me whatever and I’ll take it off myself. Tots were greasy and under seasoned. Shake was really good.

I am typically not one to write negative reviews, but I had the worst service I have ever received in any customer service establishment.
My girlfriend and I went to the walk-up order station, and the person taking orders said “It will be a minute, hold on a second.” I then replied, “No problem, take your time.” In order to pass time me and my girlfriend made conversation and I made her laugh along the way. The person taking orders who had been silent for the past five minutes then chimes in saying, “I can still hear you, don’t laugh in my ear.”
I can understand a wait, but I can’t understand being that rude to the customer who is patiently waiting.
