We brought a family of four around dinner time and parked in one of the stalls. At the very start of ordering our food - before even selecting a drink - I received a rude “is that all?” I was a little taken back because I only said one item, so I stated that I had a big order and I would let her know once I am finished. Even with my comment the woman on the other side of the speaker continued to ask “is that all?” after each and every single item I ordered. By the end of ordering I was completely upset. I felt rushed and got the impression that SHE was annoyed from the tone of her voice. I decided not to cancel my whole order and just go somewhere else because my kids were excited to try a new drink. (Had it been any other visit, we would have left due to how rude she was). I find it extremely unprofessional to address customers this way, especially when I stated I had a larger order in the beginning.

I am leaving this review as I usually receive pleasant customer service from Sonic. Her tone and the constant question of “is that all” was just off-putting. I hope this is addressed or we will just have to avoid this location and go further up the road.

**I WOULD LIKE TO ADD: (This justifies the one star) The carhop, Melissa, was AMAZING. She was extremely polite and suggested that we made sure our order was correct before we left. It was in fact not correct and was missing food - but she caught it before we did and we appreciate her kindness and...

Seriously awful. Took my kids to get ice cream, first time at this location. They weren't busy at all, I could see quite a few employees inside. 15 minutes after ordering just ice cream for 3 people, we were still waiting. I pressed the button again and politely asked about our order and was told to hold. A minute later the lady who took our order walks up to my car and asked what we ordered. When I told her she remembered taking the order and went back inside. Unclear why this conversation couldn't have taken place over the speaker when I inquired. About 5 minutes later she comes back with our ice cream and apologized because she rang our order up as drive thru. I hadn't yet paid because the screen never showed my order or a way to pay. She takes my card and takes at least 5 more minutes to come back. She asked if I wanted a receipt, I replied that I did and also asked for spoons since my children didn't get any. She seemed annoyed. A few more minutes later she comes back with the spoons. I very politely thanked her and she said nothing and walked away. No receipt. I seriously have not experienced such bad service at any other Sonic location. It took 25 minutes to get ice cream at a location that had 3 other cars waiting. Not to mention the employee that was delivering the food to cars was clearly not in a rush. We definitely won't be back ever. I'll drive further away to go to a...

Slowest drive through in Suffolk! Cannot get the order right to save their lives! Ordered ice cream around 10:15ish pm (so it wasn't busy)... after waiting at the menu for a few minutes, we ordered 5 shakes. The girl taking our order did not repeat our order, asked multiple times for me to repeat myself and when I got to the window, I asked her to repeat my order to make sure she got everything and she acted annoyed and tried to ramble it off all quick, low and behold, she had messed up one of the shakes and then she proceeds to tell some other guy working that I "was changing my order" and she needed him to come there. The guy got the order straight after I explained what had happened, he gave us two of the shakes with no straws or spoons and told us to go park in the first drive in space and they would bring out the rest of our order. 10 minutes later, they still hadn't brought us the rest of our order, and meanwhile because we weren't given any utensils or straws to drink the ones we did have, they were all melted. My husband ended up going and knocking on the window and told them we wanted a refund. The guy told my husband they "forgot" about us being parked over there and weren't even making the dang shakes!!! Wow!! The order taker was rude, the employees can't get simple orders correct, they are forgetful and are so slow!!! Definitely need to get their...

My biggest complaint would be the person that I had to deal with at the window. LaQuia was one of the most unpleasant customer service people that I have ever dealt with. With that being said, I ordered a toaster sandwich, got a bacon cheeseburger instead. I ordered, no mayonnaise, got mayonnaise on it. I ordered a diet Coke, I got a Coke….. and I had to ask her for a straw, my drink, ketchup, which I had mentioned at the time of order, and a receipt. During all of this, she shut the window on me three times thinking she was done with me. Now honestly…. Should I have to pay $11.24 to be treated unpleasantly and have every aspect of my order incorrect? The wrong sandwich and it came with mayonnaise which I requested none-, the wrong drink, that I had to specifically ask for my drink, and then knock on the window to get a straw, and I needed ketchup for my tater tots. The young lady at the window acted like she was doing me a favor just looking at me. Overall, I’m never getting another gift card for the teenagers that work for my company from sonic again.

I ordered a Chocolate Covered Strawberry Shake that’s on the board. It’s the shake that was promoted as the “Reba Shake”. On two attempts to obtain the actual shake, I was handed two different shakes and neither one represented the actual shake. This is the second shake that was handed to me, along with my purchase receipt. Now with all due respect, does that look like the order I received? No. I was given a chocolate shake. I’m driving to Chesapeake and I live in Suffolk, just to order the shake I want. I wasn’t going back to the location, nor would it be in my best interest to ask for the shake again. I was probably talked about and something smart said about the fact that it was incorrect in the first place. I trashed the shake when I got home. I never touched it. It was to be a small not a medium. Opportunity to display good quality customer service on product knowledge was missed.

I saw the ad pop up on fb and figured i would go try it out. I called ahead to serif the deal was legit and was told yes. I found a parking spot that was not coned off. The screen was not on as I pushed the button for service. It never came on. That's the 3 stars for the atmosphere. When the attendant came on (Solaris), she was very polite, a very bubbly personality. I asked her about the deal as I had seen it online, and she confirmed the deal. We got our food and left, no, we didn't check it. Got halfway home and pulled a burger. False information given about product and price.
