Sonny's Drive In — Restaurant in Brampton

First time visiting Sonys - we are east enders and moved to the west end so we are slowly trying new places. We got hotdogs and fries. Hot dogs were cold on the inside and not the greatest quality. Service was not great from the guy cashing us out to the guy making our hot dog. Fries were actually really good hence the 2 stars.

The worst part about it is they only accept cash. First off why are you charging tax then? It’s shady and unethical as we know when you’re only asking for cash because you’re probably are not reporting your full revenue. Secondly, we had to use the ATM inside your establishment to take out cash and we paid an additional $2.99 fee to do so. So we spent $30! On 2 hotdogs and 1 fries box! If it was amazing I wouldn’t care! We had to ask for ketchup and the drink they forgot to give us. It felt like a crime asking for fried onions on the hotdog, and our drink that THEY forgot to give us (like we were lying or something) and asking for ketchup for the fries felt like a bother…we didn’t dare to ask for a straw so used our own… like really? Yea not coming back. Bad attitude all around. Felt like we were treated differently….I’ll keep it as that as we witnessed others, older males, getting much better attitudes...

You knew exactly how good the food was going to be and taste like the minute you walked in as per the great aroma of the steaks on a bun, the large beef patty burgers and cheeseburgers as well as the savory taste of their famous large onion rings aa well. I have lived in Brampton now since 1977 and have seen numerous take out food vendors come and go but trust me you will always get your large size servings that Sonny's is and continues to be for over all these years now. If you have never been or tried Sonny's ever before than all I want to know is what has taken you so long to try their great large size food servings and delicious menu of excellent food at still very affordable prices? Staff is courteous and always eager for your feedback on their food, service and quality of their famous food items. They even appreciate the time you take to remember how Brampton has changed from a small farmers town suburb of the city of Toromto to 1 of the largest cities for constant growth and constant redevelopment of this great city named Brampton, Ontario, Canada in several past and probably many more years to come in its future years as well. Proud to call it my hometown but not...

I have lived in Brampton for almost 20 years and finally drove over here because of the hype.

I just don't get it. This was an expensive Harvey's experience.

The service was great. Food came out pretty quickly, which was nice. The burger is 100% a frozen patty. It's not a bad tasting frozen patty, just nothing to write home about. You could recreate this burger at home after a successful trip to No Frills. The toppings were ok, but they only had lettuce, onions, and pickles when I went in. I asked for hot sauce on my burger, and a side of hot sauce to dip my fries in. Upon dipping, I discovered that it was BBQ sauce; that was very disappointing. It was also $1.30 for a squirt of what tasted like Diana sauce mixed with ketchup. The fries were ok, but definitely needed salt. Great portion size though, could be shared between 2 people.

Overall, the meal was ok, but for $20, I could've gone to Harvey's, where I would've been able to use my debit card, get a larger drink, and had more options...
