Must have cash. That’s my reasoning for the I frequent visits to this amazing place. The food is good. It’s a no frills drive in but you won’t regret scraping up all the change you have floating around in your car to get an amazing drink from here!

Go back in time to an original Sonic Drive In and have the best fried food in the area! Park in the car, place your order, and wait for the friendliest servers to bring the food out to you. The best part is that this place is CHEAP to feed the family!

Grabbed the foot long cheesy cony. Was not disappointed. I really wanted to try the steak sammy, but there weren’t a lot of reviews on it. Next time I’m in town, I’ll order that. Stop in you won’t be disappointed. Great food!

We stopped by for French fries and a fish sandwich — both were absolutely delicious! The sandwich was crispy and fresh, and the fries were perfectly seasoned and hot. The homestyle classic ranch was very delicious and paired perfectly with everything. The service was great, and this place truly exceeded my expectations!

Looks are deceiving. I passed this place many times thinking it was ran down because the place is original. Someone referred me to it and the food is very good. It's comfort food, granted and I don't recommend eating here daily as your waistline might require a new wardrobe. But the people are very friendly and what I ordered was reasonably priced and very good.
