I see commercials on tv but never tried it till today! The shakes and hamburgers were done the way I liked the chicken nuggets and fries were hot and tasty! The area was large plenty of parking and easy to order thru the app! Service was quick and it was quaint spot to eat! read more

I had never been to sonic before but I feel like I did it wrong. I got a burger which was okay, I did like the fries a lot which were crinkle and crispy. I think I should've tried their speciality drink and make it dirty with the cream. I think that would have elevated the experience. Or a milkshake as my boyfriend says, to pair with his burger--he would've liked it more. It was good for being fast food but wasn't blown away after having high expectations. Also the drive up booths stressed me out they were so tight to pull into. But it's cute how they bring you your order and you press the button when you're ready. Overall it was fun but I feel like I need a do-over with the menu. read more

We opted to go inside cause it's hard for everyone to read the full menu from the car. Although they do have a lobby, it was clear that it wasn't a priority. The electronic menu didn't work and nobody was based at the cash register. If one of the runners from out back noticed you standing at the counter, ask if you knew what you wanted while they were dashing in/out to a car. All the tables could have used a wipe down. One had some kind of dressing drizzled on the floor underneath. The food itself had it's ups and downs. My son enjoyed his mozzarella sticks. His Sonic blast didn't have too many pieces of cookie dough in it. It was all on the top of it. We were expecting more of a blend, judging by the pictures. My daughter's chicken sandwich was mid, absolutely nothing special. I actually really enjoyed my double smash burger. I'd get that again for sure. My tator tots could have used a couple more seconds in the fryer, but they were fine to eat. I know it's fast food, so I'm not looking for a gourmet experience, but I do think a few easy adjustments can be made to make this place better. read more

I am usually not a fan of Sonic, as I feel like the food is mediocre and slightly overpriced for what you get. Although, when I heard that Sonic had paired with Grillo's Pickles to launch the "Big Dill Meal" in the summer of 2025, I knew I had to try it. I went to the Sonic in Peabody on Route 1. Like most things off of Route 1, it's hard to get to if you're not on the correct side of the road. I parked and ordered through their touch-screen kiosk: the Big Dill Sonic Smasher, dill pickle seasoned tots, and the picklerita slush. The food arrived in about average time and I ate it in my car, true Sonic style. The double patty burger had two slices of American cheese, dill pickle-seasoned crispy cucumbers, dilly ranch, Grillo's Pickle Chips, and fresh lettuce on a potato bun. I wouldn't say the pickle flavoring was that strong but I knew it was there. The Grillo's Pickle seasoning really came through on the seasoned tots, which were hot and crispy. Finally, the picklerita slush was a tart and sweet slush made with a blend of pickle juice and tart lime, Pickle Juice Flavor Bubbles, and topped with a Grillo's Pickle Chip. This was so interesting - you got the sweetness first but then the after taste was the pickle juice. The popping bubbles provided further blasts of pickle juice in your mouth. I kinda loved it. This was only a seasonal promotion but I wouldn't hesitate to go for round two if it comes around again next summer at Sonic. read more

After nearly a year of Sonic sobriety since leaving Arkansas, I pulled into this Sonic like a man crawling through the desert to a mirage of chili cheese and Route 44 dreams. Turns out--it wasn't a mirage. It was glorious. It was greasy. It was home. Let's start with the food: Those mozzarella sticks? Fresh, crispy on the outside, chewy on the inside, and practically singing with nostalgic artery-clogging joy. The fries? Crinkled to perfection--like each one was handcrafted by someone who truly understands the sacred art of crunch. And the milkshake? A creamy, ice-cold masterpiece that could easily double as emotional support. Thick enough to remind you it's real, but sippable enough to avoid the jaw dislocation you get from lesser shakes. The service? Fast. Like, suspiciously fast. I half expected my order to come with a radar ticket. And the carhop? Absolute legend. When I jokingly asked for a "hell yeah," this man didn't hesitate. I'm not saying he deserves a raise--but yes, I am absolutely saying that. In short: this Sonic brought me back to my roots, back to a place where fried cheese is a love language and milkshakes are spiritual experiences. 5 stars. No notes. read more

My kids hadnt seen a Sonic in three years so they were excited to go here. Food was to brand standards and was made in a respectable amount of time. Everyone got what they wanted and the order was correct and everything was at proper temp. Definitely scratched the itch for the family read more

The day I went which resulted in a one star review must have been an off day. Today I ordered my usual iced tea. I typically add diet cherry flavoring but today I decided to treat myself and get the regular cherry flavoring. When I went to pay the cashier asked if I wanted the regular cherry, since I usually get the diet cherry read more

Believe it or not, today was my first time trying a Sonic Burger. Oh my deliciousness! Best fast food burger ever! I love that you can drive up, old school, order your food and they bring it out to you...great for lazy people like me. Haha! I got a Butter Garlic Bacon burger that came with grilled onions. I actually asked them for no bacon or onions. I got the meal deal...reasonably priced. The fries are those delicious crinkled ones...cooked to perfection. Just want to note, food was out within five minutes. I love it! I will definitely go back. I'll be craving that burger daily! read more

One star because negative stars aren't a thing (yet). Sonic really out here serving food that tastes like it lost a bet. I ordered a burger and got a mystery meat sandwich with the energy of a microwaved middle school lunch. The fries were somehow both soggy and dry--an impressive scientific achievement, honestly. And don't even get me started on the drink. I asked for a slush, and I swear it came out looking like it had been through a breakup. Melted, sad, and barely hanging on. If you're into culinary chaos and disappointment with a side of regret, Sonic's got you. read more

Bad service and got my order wrong also super hard to get to because it's on route 1 and the gps is confusing. The staff didn't acknowledge me and the food was very mediocre. read more

Oh my god, damn did I love that hotdog. The mozzarella sticks were so delicious and so were the tots, nice ice cold lemonade. Perfect. That bathroom on the other hand? Oh hell no... literal smeared liquid fecal matter all over the toilet last night. Reeked of explosive diarrhea to the point I almost yacked. Yk at the time whatever I'll pee at home but dude it haunted me in my dream so bad i downloaded yelp. Pls fix it!! read more

Stopped here because the place we were going to go didn't work out. Food was good but service is slow.

While the service was fast and good Oh my god do not come here. I paid 4.69 for small onion rings there was a TOTAL of 4 onion rings its crazy that those onion rings were a dollar and change each. The drinks are good but the food is devastatingly mid. It seems like the kind of food that would make you sick. We'll see! read more

I had to try it. It's different to McDonalds or Burger King, KFC etc. I liked it, the service was quick as you'd expect for fast food and it was tasty. read more

So I know I had done scathing reviews before but I've been back. Food was good, service was fast, no issues at all. Ambiance? It's a drive in/thru. Not sure what to say about that. read more

Vast 50s style menu. Ordered two burgers: one arrived dry and one juicy. Fruit fly in the cherry limeade. Moldy-tasting coke. Wonderful service. read more

The employees were incompetent and the slush is actual poison. I have never disliked service more. He spelled Andrew as Endrew, Ned as Net, and Daniel as Couder. The employees were rude and you had to beg to even order food. The inside of the building made me want to cry and I am so mad. read more

If I could give this restaurant 10 stars I would, staff is always great, never had a bad experience here and ALWAYS get fresh food no matter the time of day. Favorite choice- double cheeseburger Favorite drink - blue raspberry slush with nerds Never ever disappoints Will be a returning customer for good. Always love old fashioned kinda vibes you get here too ambiance is superb. read more

The food was ok. Nothing special. Service was alright we ordered in one of those drive through, it was a bit complicated. So we clicked the button and a server came and took one order which was pretty great. But I don't think I will return. read more

Do yourself a favor pass this one up. The food was terrible and the guy at the window a total jerk.

I went there on Sept. 25 around 4:05 PM with 3 cars in front of me. The car at the window was there for over 15 minutes. I asked why when I finally got to the window and was told he had a big order. Well - tell him to pull up his car and wait for it while the rest of us get a drink or quick takeout. Ridiculous and made me 15 late for my next pick up at Santarpios. Get with it mgt. read more

Didn't read the reviews and don't need to! The service was excellent and fast and the food was impeccable. Don't know what everyone is so uppity about - assuming that all changed since this is my first time (and not my last!) read more

I think a lot of people would give umbrage to giving Sonic 5 stars, but man...being right next to my hotel with fast food to whet my late night cravings just influences my opinion. I ended up getting hot dogs, corn nuggets, burgers, fries, tater tots, and smoothies during my trip here and they all definitely hit the spot. I was able to just walk over and order from the little outdoor kiosk. Employees were friendly and the food came out relatively quickly. Is it fine dining? Of course not. But all in all I couldn't really ding them for anything. If i stay at one of the nearby hotels again, I know where I'll be when it gets late...lol read more

Our breakfast/brunch meal was okay my cheeseburger combo meal had no cheese. We usually only order the ice cream which is the best. We ordered at the drive up stall and sat at their metal tables outside because of no entry inside the restaurant. read more

They said it closes at 2 and when I arrived before that time, they were closed. I just wanted something to eat and apparently it wasn't worth the drive here. read more

Make sure to check your food before you drive off. I ordered 2 BACON egg and cheese burritos and got sausage egg and cheese and by the time I found out I was already home. I threw it away and decided to order doordash and get the same thing cause I thought that this time it would be right since its doordash and they see it right up on screen...NOPE same damn thing. This tells me they are out of bacon and are not telling anyone or they are just so incredibly stupid to the point where they cant tell the difference between bacon and sausage. CHECK YOUR FOOD BEFORE YOU LEAVE!!! read more

this was my first time trying sonic and I am disappointed. the food did not come out hot it came out warm as if it was under a heating lamp. and personally I don't think the food had any salt or seasonings even the tots had no salt.. there is no self serve station for straws, napkins or condiments therefore relying on a worker. its very quite and clean in the restaurant. Good luck read more

The food I have had there is not good I really only go there for the drinks. But one annoying thing they do is they advertise specials on TV and when you get there you're told that you have to order them on the app to get them. I don't believe that is stated in the commercials or if it is it must be in little tiny print in the corner of the TV screen. The burgers that I've had there have been small and dry and french fries are always cold. So nope I just stick with the shakes... read more

I was all hyped up to have my dinner delivered to me on skates. But that was not to be, as the skating car hops were sadly released from service before we got there shortly before 8:30pm one Saturday night. So, instead of ordering in the car, or out at their patio, we headed on in to peruse their menu and to place it at one of two lonely computer registers by their enclosed kitchen. Not particularly hungry, we split a combo. Since we wanted a shake (a large one), rather than the default combo option from the soda fountain, we had to upgrade the combo, but that was sufficient. The Cheeseburger Medium Combo $7.79 +1.59 Large Combo upgrade +2.90 shake upgrade = 12.09, plus tax. A large shake is $6.49 vs $3.59 for a large fountain drink. Other than being generous with the pickles, the cheeseburger didn't stand out in any other way. The strawberry shake was thick and dense and had some satisfying bits of fruit, but I didn't really sense the malt that had been requested. The tater tots, however, were perfectly hot and crisp on the outside. No ketchup was offered, and none needed. read more

This might be the bottom of the barrel for fast food. I wanted to go there since I haven't went there in a very long time. And I ate a burger and French fries and the oil was really bad because later on me and my family felt like crap. It has a very awful after effect in your stomach it was just miserable. read more

I don't recommend. We tried it because we hadn't ever had it. Well, I had Sonic like 20 years ago in the Midwest. It was really sloppy, not fresh tasting, and the fries were hard and old. Cherry limeade is good. Not coming back. read more

If I could give no stars I would. This location has the most incompetent staff- almost all of them seem to hate their job, churn out food that is barely edible and looks nothing like what's on the menu. Customer service is non-existent, the location is filled with garbage/grime, and the technology is usually broken. I recommend you skip this place. read more

I don't go to Sonic often and had never been to this location. It's pretty difficult to get to off of route 1, especially if you're trying to get there from the other direction. I went through the drive-thru and it was pretty fast, especially for a Friday night. I had seen the ads for the grilled cheese hamburger and fell for it. Oops, that's on me. I ordered that, a side of tots and the strawberry cheesecake shake. The shake was definitely the best part of the meal. Really decadent and yummy. The tots were fine - nothing special. The sandwich was pretty blah - looked nothing like the ad. Tasted okay but again, nothing special. That concluded my pretty much once a year visit to Sonic. read more

My junior cheese burger was drenched in mustard and the beef tasted old . My son ordered chicken strip meal and got what looked like a bunch of oily nuggets with a burnt piece of mushy bread and over fried tater tots . And we both asked for no whip cream on our shakes which came with whip cream . read more

The food is always good, spot is great too. But the employees are extremely disrespectful and dont take the job seriously. There are two girls I've seen here who will pretend they don't understand what you are saying and laugh on the microphone. Unacceptable, I have never been treated like this anywhere. read more

Love this place especially for a late night bite. Super cheap and just an overall fun experience. Great breakfast burritos. read more

Lobby not open. Chocolate shake has no flavor. Paid six bucks for five buffalo chicken bites. Sound quality in drive thru sucks.

we went to this Sonic today. My daughter and I got so sick after having milk shakes. She also had a burger. We barely made it home before getting sick. read more

The food has a weird taste of cardboard food. The service was mid. The place in general was sketchy fr. -10000 aura.
