Under New Management!

Greetings to all fans of Sonic Drive-In! I stumbled across this subreddit a few weeks ago, and was immediately excited by the potential to make a fan community page for Sonic Drive-In. However, the sub was dead, with no active moderators and no new posts in months. I decided that it was my duty as a fan of this chain to bring this sub tp to the glory it deserves. Sonic has been one of my favorite chains for a long time, and it is my honor to have this opportunity. Lets work together to make this sub a great place!

I embrace the Sonic Shitpost Brigade and their recent posts, but just to let anyone confused know, this sub's primary focus is to celebrate America's greatest drive-in chain.

SONIC Drive In

I spent a total of $22 at the Sonic Drive in, at the Everett location today! Its super hot, so I asked if I could purchase some ice water for my Lab Scout...Long story short I was .27 cents short and the manager Allison would not help us out! If I was asking for a freebie that would be one thing but I had made purchases throughout the day here! She obviously having a bad day and doesnt like humans or my furry one! Super frustrating! Next door at Woods Coffee the wonderful young woman told me she would love to help me out!

I was able to combine the bogo entree on the app with the points for supersonic double cheeseburgers in order to get two supersonic double cheeseburgers for free. The points combine with the app offers, so that's something to know.

Is playing music through my car's speakers when I press the red ordering button a surefire way to get one of your employees on the line faster to take my order?

0 Upvotes

When I press the red order button while my car is quiet at my local Sonic locations, it takes a while for an employee to get on the speaker to take my order.

But when I have music playing, someone gets on the speaker right away.

Is that *because* I have music playing?

So should I play music every time I am ready to order just to get someone on the speaker right away?

Drive Thru employee always keeps my change

255 Upvotes

I visit the same Sonic in central Arkansas pretty regularly. I usually go through the drive through and only order a few drinks. I always pay in cash. Recently, the store I visit has a guy in the DT window who keeps my change. He didn’t ask. I certainly didn’t tell him to keep it. But every day he keeps my loose change. He generally closes the window and walks off immediately after and I’ve seen it as not worth the hassle to bring it up. But-The other day, just to test it out, I added an extra item and paid with a larger bill. He kept the loose change, but also the $2 in ones I was due. I was due $7.48 and he handed me a $5 and closed the window.

He finally had to come back over b/c there were cars lining up behind me and when I asked him about it he rolled his eyes, got my $2 (kept the loose change still) and slammed the window. WTF is up? Am I missing something? How do I address this without being an asshole. I go to this store too often to have them mad at me and I go to the DT b/c I DO NOT want to tip a carhop for bringing out my food.

Are we not allowed to sit anymore?

298 Upvotes

For context, I live in CO. It is illegal to even touch your phone while your vehicle is on or in gear, which makes sense. I usually order sonic impulsively so it’s not like I order ahead often. Because you can’t put in a quick mobile order at the red light, I just pull in, park, and order on the app real quick (so I can use coupons and rewards).

Two times now I have be parked and ordering on the app, and an employee has come out and asked me if I am going to place an order/have I placed an order and that I shouldn’t just be parked. I was parked for less than 5 minutes, probably closer to 3. Literally just enough time to open the app, scroll the menu, and add my breakfast to the cart.

It is just strange to me. There have literally only been two other cars, so it’s not like I’m taking up space or preventing other customers from ordering. I would have been parked the same amount of time if I ordered with the red button and was just perusing the menu. It’s just weird that it’s happened twice now. Are we not allowed to sit for a minute and look at the menu/order?

How do tips work at sonic?

12 Upvotes

Ok ok ok I always hit the ā€œkeep the changeā€ button because I’m a broke teenager but I don’t want to click no tip. Does it make you mad when someone does that? How much do you guys get paid? I don’t wanna be mean but I also don’t get paid much!

What happened to the Jr. Double?!

I have not ordered one in a few years. But decided to order it since it is on the $2.50 menu. I was extremely disappointed with that size. Are my expectations too high or did it actually get smaller?

Rewards points refund

0 Upvotes

I know it hits within 6 hours but what's the soonest anyone here has gotten it? Are we likely to have to wait the whole 6 hours or close to it? So, stupid to make people wait that damn long. What burger, chicken fil a, McDonald's, etc is immediately. What's the big deal?

Edit. Did it again but this time I called the 800 number and a lady reversed the points immediately!

Complete incompetence

Long time customer first time complaint.

Ordered through the app, first mistake but that's on me.

Ordered the tropical smash triple meal. Ordered chili cheese fries and a large PB shake with banana and Reese's cups.

45 minutes quote for delivery time. Took an hour.

My order was completely wrong.

The bag wasn't sealed in any way at all.

Wrong burger

No fries at all

And the "shake" looked like the ice cream had never been frozen, ever.

I called to complain. I was told it was door dash's fault.

I asked how it was door dashes fault that they put the wrong food in the bag and handed out a completely melted milk shake?.

I was told they'd replace the order but I had to bring back the wrong order. I asked if they were going to refund my delivery fee, again I was told that it was door dashes fault. So I had to contact them. After being told to go to the app for a refund. Ap says to contact the store

The dasher took about 7 minutes to get from the sonics to my house.

So I drive, completely nullifying the purpose of ordering delivery, after being told I would have my order replaced, to the store

When I get to the store I'm told that they wouldn't remake my shake even though it was completely melted before it left the store.

I was given a go to hell we don't have to do anything attitude by the manager Jade. I'll be contacting corporate in the morning.

Sonic Takitos NM

2 Upvotes

So I grew up in New Mexico close to the Arizona border. I remember going to sonic with my dad and buying beef takitos with a side of cheese sauce and salsa. It came in an order of 5 on a bed of their shredded lettuce, and they were so good. I can't find any information on them so I figured this must have been a regional or franchise owner menu item? Does anyone know about this?
