I have been to this Sonic probably once a week for the past 3 weeks to just get a drink. Each time, I’ve gone through the drive thru because honestly, the drive thru should be faster than the stalls. However, every time, I’ve had to sit in the drive thru for 20 to 30 minutes JUST for ONE drink. If people are ordering a lot in the drive thru or are ordering things that take longer, they should be directed to a stall and staff should bring their food out to them when it is ready. Others whose orders should be ready in a minute should not have to wait so long. I’d also like to mention that the drive thru window EVERY TIME I go looks like it has NEVER been cleaned. Which is pretty disgusting. Definitely disappointed in the service and cleanliness of this sonic.

First issue was the employee could not hear me, she said ‘I’ll come out there, having trouble hearing you’. After 8 minutes passed and she still had not come out to my car, I downloaded the app, created an account, placed order, and paid with Apple Pay. Then the app gave me a prompt saying it could not verify if order was placed, and I should check for email. My order did not get placed. Round 2 of ordering by pressing red button. Still can’t hear me, ‘I’m coming out there’. She comes out and takes my order. I swipe my card in the kiosk, does not take my payment apparently because when my food comes out I’m asked to pay again. To top all of this off, let me post a pic of what the hotdog looked like when I opened it.

I'd give them zero stars if possible! Placed a pickup order, entered lot entered stall number, then the wait began, 15 minutes, then 30 minutes goes by, still no food, ask car hop, I don't k ow where your order is, close the dam place if you fulfill orders, drive thru was placed on high alert. If you are on a schedule don't, I repeat Don't stop here! As we were pulling out here came our order, incomplete as expected. Car hop argued with me about order, pulled up order online and showed car hop he's wrong, got the deer in the headlight look! Avoid this place at all costs! Total time for 3 drinks 63 minutes!

I like Sonic's food; it used to be worth paying a little more than other fastfood places, but it definitely isn't anymore. At least not at the Hastings location. The place has been going downhill for a while now- the infrastructure (half the stalls seem to be out of order and if the screen works, the card reader doesn't), the staff (I've yet to have a carhop capable of making correct change and every time I have an order with more than 2 drinks, something comes out wrong), and finally now the food itself has fallen to a quality that I can't justify coming back. We waited 38 minutes on a slushy, a drink, a burger, and mozzarella sticks. Not sure what the ridiculous wait was for, as the slushy came out half-melted and the "hot" food was cold. The sticks were rubbery, the burger (which was missing ingredients) had been sitting in the bag long enough for the soaking-wet lettuce to seep through both the wrapper and the bag, and they'd failed to put anything else in the bag, including sauce for the sticks or even napkins. If I'd had another 38 minutes to waste, I would have sent it all back. Better to avoid this place until they can bring their standards up to something...

I'm going to be honest here! I went through the drive thru and ordered 2 Sausage Breakfast Burritos in which I've done hundreds of times over the years! This was my sons order so when I got home and he bit into it he tasted peppers. I did NOT order my sausage Breakfast burritos with peppers and tomatoes which were in it!

So i went back and told them what I got and wanted them to make it right with a refund they said either or!..so I chose the burritos being made right but was angry I had to go back to get it right with no refund!..

So I think they should've gave me my money back too for driving back and having to get the order right!.. I am very disappointed in this place as I have been before! I think they need to overhaul the staff and train them with the proper training and get it right or they'll continue getting negative reviews years to come!!

New post!! 2-11-24 I ordered on door dash and I was suppose to of had a pulled pork sandwich and tater tots they gave me Double Cheeseburger and French fries! Where did it read that? idk!! ..someone needs to start learning to read !! NO...

Me and my kids wanted to eat outside since it’s a nice evening, so we went to sonic, we walked up to outside menu and picked out what we wanted to order so my son pushed the button, the button was flashing, we sat there for 6 mins so my son pushed the button again and no answer a car hope lady brought out a drink to a car that was in the car hop section, my son proceeded to ask the girl if this button worked and we are ready to order all she had said yes it sure does work I will see what’s going on and she walked inside, another 5 mins passed as we are sitting at the outside tables and nothing, we pushed the button again and nothing so we lefted, mind you I could hear all the employees messing around inside laughing haven a good time, there was 3 cars in drive through and no one eles in the pull up sections! NOT HAPPY AT ALL we sat there for a total 15 mins waiting to order and we got not 1 response worst customer service still, I thought with new management it changed bc that is all I hear on the Facebook group so I thought we would give them another try! Don’t...
