Sonic Drive-In

I was so excited to try sonic for the first time! Overall, service was quick and easy. The bacon burger, foot long hot dog with chili, and iced drinks were yummy!

Not sure if they changed management or staff recently but I’ve been here twice within the last week and half. Both times my order has been wrong and it took forever to even get to the car. Smh the mics to place your order are very hard to hear from and I believe that could help if they could hear the right things. Mayb I’ll try again in a few months.

In a sucker for a promotion/​sale. I visited only bc they were offering ½ priced cheeseburgers. The commercials always make the food look good so I figured I’d try it out. To my surprise the burger was good. Service was prompt and I received a coupon to return for a free drink. There is a Unilocal check in deal Available. I don’t plan to return any time soon but I very much enjoyed my lazy night treat.

Very confusing, I don’t think the employees get it either. Or maybe we got a new guy. Food was ok but my burger was plain nothing came on it. I thought that was strange because we weren’t inside so I can’t add fixing. We were asked several times the same thing when ordering. O and he forgot my coke. I’m not impressed or going back.

Cool spot to take the fam. They serve u on roller skates. My favorite is their onion rings and mozzarella cheese sticks well seasoned sandwiches are good too I love their drinks so many to choose from

Am I watching Roll Bounce! Car hops are on it! I just came for a strawberry limeade. He gave me like six spins with the order.
And he was polite. :)

My all time fave and guilty pleasure… Cherry Limeade! I love this stuff seriously can’t get enough. Sonic is great for a quick bite to eat and I like how they will pretty much customize all of the menu items to your taste. I’ve never had a bad experience at this location or any other for that matter and it is also awesome to watch the car hops on their roller skates. My advice is to go between 2 and 4pm it happy hour and all of the drinks are half price!

So glad that there is a sonic in Maryland. love this place and it has such great prices and deals! I can’t wait for when it starts getting warmer outside. It’s a nice place to have family and friend time with a meal

The burgers were substandard and extremely cold! They were thrown together haphazardly because when I pulled it out of the sleeve most of the lettuce, onions, and pickle contents fell on my lap. The tater tots were luke warm which was much better than the cold burgers. The buns were very hard and dried out as if they were very old. The tomato was mushy and old. Not fresh at all. It was substandard even by fast food standards…
Then the woman taking our order was hard to understand as she sounded less than enthused to be working there. She had the server run over to check our military ID to get the discount. Thanks for the discount but I haver never had someone run out in the middle of our order to check for it… Awkward much?! Then she disappeared for awhile until I asked «hello?» Where she screamed our total and ended it with a sassy «ok?!»
The male server was polite. However, another male worker opened the door and hollered at a car speeding super fast through the parking area to come back around to talk at the drive-​thru window (I suspect a friend). Then the car came around and stayed at the window and chatted the whole time we were there eating… Even when cars came up to get their orders, it stayed. I’d be so upset if I had to wait for workers to finish their conversations with their friends while my food was getting cold… Oh wait mine was anyways!!! Unprofessional!

THE GOOD:
Woo Hoo!!! Happy Hour here is the only reason I go here now (between 2 – 4). The drinks are great! You can mix many combinations and the slushes are good too. When I get a drink I have to tell them light ice because the fill your regular drink up like it’s a slush with ice. The Milkshakes are good too. All their drinks are great.
THE BAD:
The food here is not the greatest… but if you are hungry you will eat anything. The hamburgers are okay, if they aren’t cold by the time you get home because it’s just a drive-​in/​through. The fries are not good… nothing like BK or McD’s…even Wendy’s has better fries. The chicken tenders are dry, the hot dogs are always undercooked… need I go on… nope…I’ll let you be the judge.
THE UGLY:
If you are in a hurry DO NOT GO HERE. There is nothing fast about this fast food joint. The service is extremely slow. You can sit in the drive through line for a good 15 – 20 minutes and then to add fuel to the fire, when you get to the speaker to order they ask you to wait again which can be another 5 minutes or more.
RECOMMENDATION:
I would only go for a good drink, slush, or milkshake. Otherwise I would go to BK.

Terrible. The milkshake was good, but the fries and tater tots were lukewarm. The grilled cheese was not good at all. A waste of $ 10.

With the exception for sometimes being rather slow this Sonic is a great location. The employees are always friendly and my order is always right.
My go to meals:
Cheesy bacon pretzel dog
Asiago chicken sandwich
A #1 bacon no onions
French Toast sticks
Chilli cheese tots
Strawberry shake
Vanilla slush

Let me start off by saying, I love Sonic. This particular one wasn’t that good. The lady who took my order had an attitude and kept asking «is that it» in the middle of me ordering. Can I finish my order first?! Sheesh.
Anyways, they got my order wrong twice. The guy who was sent to my car started off nice and then had an attitude because I asked him three times to bring me some sauce. I’m thinking «I didn’t tell you to work here. You put the application in, not me». The only good that came out of this Sonic was the chicken tender sandwich (which was only given to me to compensate for the difference of price, since they charged me for large chili cheese tots instead of the small).
I sat in my car for 30 mins while they got my order right.
It’s not everyday I get to go to Sonic because we don’t have one near my area. I just happened to be in Baltimore, and I was super excited to go to a Sonic. This particular Sonic definitely killed my excitement.

Better than my first foray to a Sonic 3 years ago in Dover, De where I was served feeble fries from day old grease and a burger on a bun ravaged by freezer burn. My optimism assumed it wasn’t indicative of Corporate’s fast food model.
Sonic Drive-​In of Milford Mill offered improved fare. The Bacon Cheeseburger Toaster Sandwich with the works was doable. Most of it’s zing came from the toppings than the flatly pressed patty. Bacon fairly bold. Maybe it was an off day for the acclaimed Tots as I found them aiight. The pineapple shake was the clear-​cut winner with it’s almost massive amounts of delicious pineapple and decadently swirled no holds barred whipped topping. As the novelty of Sonics finally being embedded around Baltimore has waned so have the immense crowds. Service was brisk and thorough with a pinch of friendly.
While better than my Dover debacle, I can’t call myself a Sonic fanatic. It’s not in the upper echelon of my fast food burger exposures, yet definitely not crawling with the bottom feeders either. Overall, my recent Sonic jaunt’s sitting somewhere just above the middle.

This place had my husband and I dreaming about being teenagers again! Why this place wasn’t packed, I don’t know! We were on our way to Frederick so we didn’t do the drive in but watching the people there was so fun. The guys skated so smoothly out to the cars. I would have been all over the place. :-)
It was fun to have something like an old fashion corn dog to order! We got the cherry lime drink that had cherries and two slices of lime at the bottom… Yum. Less ice would have made it a bit more enjoyable. The chicken poppers tasted like chicken… my first time doing chicken. nuggets in years!
The mozzerella sticks were absolutely divine. Service was nice and fast. And after a fun day in Frederick we returned to Baltimore for a rare repeat. Lol. Yay for Sonic for making fast food a fun experience.

Yum… I just had the Super Sonic Breakfast Burrito #12 I think it was. That little baby burrito/​wrap was delish. It is a burrito with seasoned eggs, sausage, onions and jalapeño peppers. They really packed those hotties on there this time! Those jalepeno peppers will wake you up, and they serve this all day long too. It is a decent compact sized burrito not to be compared to Chipotles or Qdobas. Sonic puts a fair amount of everything into the burritos and they include salsa packets, if needed. I don’t need the salsa but I’ll sprinkle some on throughout the burrito just for a different taste. I ordered tator tots and a soda which rang me up to about $ 5. All combined I am feeling satisfied, I enjoyed breakfast this morning!

The first time I had sonic was last year in Williamsburg Virginia and I fell in love! We probably went 5 times in the 2 days we stayed down there lol!
I was excited to hear that there was one about an hour away from my house and decided to drive 50 miles to get my fix! It was well worth the trip!
Its very hard to go to sonic and get a simple combo meal. The food is so cheap you will find yourself consuming almost everything on the menu. I love the Sonic burgers with chili cheese fries. I usually wash it all down with a blue coconut slushy (Mmmm). Their coney hot dogs are also very delicious.
Make sure you leave room for desert! I love the frozen yogurt sunday topped with strawberry fudge, chocolate fudge, whipped cream, and bananas! Ahhhh so good!!! Your mind tells you to eat all this stuff but your body tells you NO haha! If I there was a Sonic within a 15 to 20 mile radius of my home, I would be twice my size!

I finally made it to Sonic in Baltimore. It’s a fun concept where you drive up, order from your personal kiosk/​booth and then wait for your food to be delivered to your car window. My server brought my food out on skates, which is the Sonic way!
I’ve eaten at a few Sonics. This one is nice and new. I got the Diet Cherry Limeade, a cheeseburger and the tots. The sandwiches/​entrees are decent. I think the highlight for me are the tater tots and the array of beverages. If you are thirsty, this is the place to visit.
If you are planning on making a visit, the Sonic Happy Hour (half off drinks) and sunny, warm days are the busiest. Go figure. It’s fun to go to Sonic, and it breaks up the fast food doldrums.

If this review was just based on the burger I had, then it would be a 4 star review. However, since a burger was not all that I had this is the reason why I gave it 3 stars.
The onion rings are very sweet. I do not think that it is because of the onion itself but because of the batter that they used. The batter was too sweet to my tastes and didn’t make my onion ring experience a very tasty one.
Overall, I did like my meal just not the sides.

Yay! Sonic! I had been to the one many times down by the Eastern Shore (yes, we have had a Sonic in MD for a while. Just not near Baltimore!) and fell in love with the Cherry Limeaide with a shot of chocolate. And the fries. Oh, so good.
I came here two days before it was supposed to open (they were doing a test run) and while the line was crazy, it moved fast. Service is impossibly friendly and prompt. The prices are right, and as an added bonus, the McDonalds across the street looks like it’s about to cry every time I drive past.
If you can deal with crazy lines, it’s worth a trip. Even my dad was impressed.
