    I saw a commercial and loaded the kids up and made a stop! I forget about sonic sometimes. They have so many options foods and drinks....we got the burger two kids meals. Service was great, food was hot and fresh and I love the style of the restaurant.

    Quick Service through the Drive up. Tip: If you download the app and order a drink/slushee it's half price all day!! I ordered 5 slushees for the family ....$6. My 2 strawberry slushees were almost white with a splash of strawberries. I inquired and the cashier made 2 additional slushees with EXTRA strawberries. They came out Perfect!!! For a quick afternoon surprise of sweetness head to your local Sonic.

    Ordered Cherry limeade... got a cranberry limeade... the jalapeño poppers are fried so hard, there's no cheese and 2 of the 4 got stuck together and the breading is like raw where they were stuck... Ultimate breakfast burrito had no tater tots, I ordered the new BBQ Chip tots, they didn't give them to me... then I waited at stall for 10 minutes after pushing the button to ask for them... no response... got out of the car, went in... waited for them... and I got a box of tots drench in bbq sauce... in a container that was cold and had bbq sauce all over. To say I'm disappointed is an understatement.

    If I could leave 0 stars I would. Absolute disgusting. First off, wasn't even given my whole order so essentially I paid for food I never received! Second, the food I DID receive (no I didn't check my bags until I got home) made everybody sick! Everybody had diarrhea. I reached out to the restaurant directly to let them know about my missing food and everybody getting sick. No one answered that day so I tried again the next and the rude manager (I didn't catch her name) decided to raise her voice at me accusing me of fraud and wouldn't even offer to pay the money I was overcharged for food I never received. She felt the need to call me fraud, and demand "proof" that everyone got sick. Manager/"Owner" is Alisha Gibson. HIGHLY DO NOT RECOMMEND. If you MUST visit a sonic absolutely do not go to this one at 341 South Church St. Burlington NC 27215. I REPEAT. DO NOT GO TO THIS SONIC.

    I came to get a slush on a hot summer day and he was very helpful in making a customized drink when I wasn't seeing anything on the menu that I liked.

    This is the first time I've been here and I love this place. I was running errands getting ready…read morefor our granddaughter's birthday so I needed to come here and go to the oven by Lyn (see my review). I stopped here because I was hungry and wanted to take a break from all the running around. Plus I could have a cheeseburger and a beer, but of course that had nothing to do with it. There were two gentlemen working at the time both very polite. Asked if I could have chili on a double cheeseburger and I was told I absolutely could and asked what else I wanted. So I got my cheeseburger with fries and a beer. I was the only person in there but it was also a weekday in the middle of the day. They brought my food to me and I got to sit down and enjoy it while watching the Addams family on television. It was pretty relaxing actually. The place is spotless, brightly lit, and the tables have lots of space between them which is really nice. The classic TV was also nice. I'm really glad they didn't have news or sports on. Lurch and Thing are a lot more entertaining. Anytime I'm in this area I'm going to look for a reason to stop here. I highly recommend this place.

    Stopped by Drake's in Burlington last night around 9:30 PM with my nephew, and overall this was a…read morevery good experience. The food came out looking great. Everything was presented well, tasted good, and despite it being later in the evening, nothing about the meal or experience felt rushed or like we were getting the "end of the night" version of anything from them. Our server, Ty, was excellent. Professional, attentive, friendly, and simply good at her job. She stayed on top of everything without being too much, made sure we had what we needed, and helped make the entire experience enjoyable, which meant a lot to her since this was my nephew's first time here. The one area I'd improve is addressing the front door host area. Last night we stood there a bit longer than necessary, waiting for a hostess, before my nephew noticed the sign next to the stand telling guests to find their own seats. Once we saw it, no problem whatsoever. We grabbed a booth and carried on. BUT even better, if there isn't someone dedicated to the hostess stand later in the evening, a quick "Welcome in! Feel free to grab a seat anywhere" from someone nearby or working the bar (about 10-12 feet away from the front door) would immediately make the experience feel more intentional and welcoming. That's a relatively small issue, but it's also the difference between a very good (5-star) experience and a slightly lower one. Overall, good food, great presentation, and excellent service from Ty. She represented Drake's extremely well and absolutely deserves the recognition.

They have a range of appetizers, burgers, tacos, and even sushi! I was actually very impressed their side salad. My quesadilla was so good. It was huge. I had leftovers. My son loved his tots and chicken tenders. I had an adult beverage and it was pretty good. They were busy for the holiday. The service was a bit slow, but our waiter was very nice. If your group can't decide on where to eat, this is your best bet. I'm telling you, they have something for everyone.

    Piedmont Ale House is a neighborhood bar and grill tucked away into an unassuming strip mall. They…read morehave a small outdoor patio, the main seating area and bar, and a separate connected room with several larger tables for groups of four or more. My husband and I stopped in on a Thursday evening around 7pm and the place was pretty full. We sat ourselves at a table in the back room, and I noticed how laid back the place was, which is something I really appreciate. Sadly, it seemed that the relaxed vibe extended a bit too far and reflected on their cleanliness, as I noticed all of the chair rails were dusty, the floors a bit littered, our table sticky, and the plastic menus in need of replacing. Service, however, was wonderful. Our waitress was friendly and pretty attentive given how busy she was. My husband was happy with their on tap beer selection, deciding on Red Oak ($3 on Thursdays!). I went with a margarita and it wasn't the best, but thankfully I didn't pay much for it since it was also on special. They were out of the southwestern egg rolls I initially ordered, so I ended up going with the Philly cheesesteak and homemade chips. I enjoyed the cheesesteak's fresh bread; plenty of tender meat, peppers, and onions; and gooey cheese. It could have used more mayonnaise, but it was still quite good. The homemade chips were tasty but undercooked; if I had been hungrier, I definitely would have returned them and asked for a fresh batch. My husband absolutely devoured the cheeseburger and fries he ordered. He said that it was one of the best burgers he's had in quite a while, and this is a guy who loves burgers and eats them often. I want to return to Piedmont Ale House in the future. I think there are some things they seem to do really well, namely burgers and beer at really reasonable prices!
