    They're awesome. Whenever I'm away out of the Northeast I make sure to stop at one. I love their flavored sodas, deserts and their coney island foot long dogs are great.

    Plus they have breakfast all day.

    I forgot to ask. Where in South Jersey is one opening?
    Way south in Rio Grande. Right outside of Wildwood. There is a new giant shopping area. You know the whole bullshit Walmart layout. Its right in front.
    I hate going to Walmart mostly b/c of all the low life's who hang around there but NOW....well, I can play the trailer trash roll and walk around Walmart with a Sonic drink in one hand and a fry in the other. LOL
    Sorry if any of you live on a trailer. hehhehe

    There's one. LOL

    Over on the Anaheim/Fullerton border on Lemon Street.

    Well....I lied, that's the only one, unless you feel like driving out to palm springs, victorville, or bakersfield, anywhere like that. Why the hell do they all get one?

    Whats good there? Is it a drive up with car service or what?

    OK, i used to work there as a car-hop. you drive up, press the button on the speaker stand to order and the car-hop will bring your order out to you. (yes, car-hops accept tips. don't say they don't do anything. they help with your drinks, bagging your order, have to go outside and deal with all kinds of weather, etc....) you can sit there in your car and eat, or they usually have some have picnic tables outside.


    their menu is huge! i don't even know where to start to tell you what to try! :o they're known for their Cherry Limeaids though, you'll have to try one of those.

    i just like the classic #1 or #2 burger. #1 has mayo and #2 has mustard. oh, and their extra long cheese coneys are good, if you like that kind of thing.

    and their ice cream is good too. especially the Blasts which are like DQ's blizzards.....i could go on and on....but if you have any questions, feel free to ask :)

    and now i've read all the posts.....i hate Sonic's comercials and i used to work there


    every Sonic is different. you've got the clean ones and the dirty ones. i'm very picky about which Sonic i go to. it's true, if the outside looks clean, neat, and tidy then more than likely the inside is good. it all depends on management. if you go to a Sonic that really follows the "made to order" rule, then it will be good. their food isn't healthy at all, but oh so tasty! :D

    No joking there are 6 within a 15 mile radius of me... a town made 0f 60,000. A bit overKILL, right?
    I only really like to get water there... a large one during happy hour is literally like 29 cents. Cold as ice, serrrously!

    Oh yea, they took away the Frito pie, bastards... :(

    I believe I saw one of the sonic guys perform improv at the UCB theater in the NYC... can anyone confirm this?

    tru dat. there's a sonic less than a block from me, but i won't go there, it's disgusting. There's 5 sonics within 5 miles of where i live though, and three of them are good.

    I lived there from age 9 months to almost 8 years old. I lived in Rio Rancho NM :)

    I used to go to sonic for an ice cream cone after trick or treating.. good times!

    Cool! That was most likely before I lived in Albuquerque though. Just checking. :)

    It may seem odd, but some of my fond memories from my young childhood are of going in Sonic (in Arkansas).

    I live in SJ too - you are probably talking about the same one. I don't know what the are serving there but there was a shitload of people lined up waiting to get into the parking lot. They had cones up & about 8-10 security people directing traffic. weird.

    nevermind. just read your former post. it's not the same one. I guess they are invading south jersey.

    I've mentioned this here before, I've seen those commercials and they do make the food look tasty! I don't think they have any in NY though?

    The drink/slush/float selection is superb.

    As far as food ... In-and-Out kicks its fucking ass.

    No way, Jack-in-the-Box has the best commercials. Decide for yourself:

    I'm sure you guys have a Carl's also. Sonic though, not so much.
