Review of Sonic in Bend, Oregon, Delivery via DoorDash Sonic has become a bit of a guilty pleasure for me. I have ordered from them quite a few times through DoorDash, and my experiences have been all over the place. The food quality and packaging are inconsistent. Sometimes things arrive well put together, other times the presentation and prep feel rushed. That said, I still find myself coming back. Their groovy fries are a favorite of mine, and every now and then the Chili Cheese Coneys hit just right. I try a lot of their drinks, especially sodas with added flavors. These can be fun, but just like the food, they are hit and miss. Their lemonade in particular leans way too sour for my taste. Coke with cherry is a true blast to the past, much more so that the pre-bottled cherry coke. I also give their shakes a thumbs up, at least in the realm of fast food shakes. I'm not sure Vincent would say "It might not be worth five dollars, but it's pretty ****** good." But these days, even a fast food shake cost five dollars. The surprise for me has been their Double SONIC® Smasher. For a long time, I considered Sonic's burgers to be among the weakest in fast food. But this burger completely turned that around, and it is now one of my favorite fast food burgers. Overall, Sonic in Bend is not about consistency or polish. It is a place I order from when I am craving something indulgent (i.e. chili dogs), knowing it may not be perfect but will scratch that fast-food itch. A guilty pleasure through and through. read more

Sonic Drive-In - sonic (delivered by doordash) - bend oregon - 8/27/2025 - Burgers Near Me - Bend, Oregon

See all

I loved the Grillo Pickle Seasoned tots. Loved that they came with a fork so I I did get pickle dust on my fingers. I had the Grillos Big Dill Double Smasher with the fried pickles and regular pickles and it was soooooo good. I thought we had ordered the meal because I couldn't wait to try the picklerita slush. But I guess they didn't hear that part so we had to pay extra for it. Which was fine, but that's why I took away one star. Other than that the food came out fast and it was yummy. Living in Albany we don't have any Sonics close so I was excited to go here in Bend while traveling. read more

This is a decent sonic. Their customer service is alright, usually responsive and the food isn't too bad. I got their double cheeseburger which was actually pretty dang large! Their crinkle cut fries were perfect and salted to perfection! read more

Sonic Drive-In - Burgers Near Me - Bend, Oregon

Terrible service. We pulled into a stall and waited 20 minutes with no service, mind you we were THE ONLY people there. After waiting we decided to go through the drive thru and were immediately met with a nasty attitude at the window. The girl was rude, condescending and acted like we were wasting her time, when they quite clearly had no other people there. Truly disgusting behavior. read more

Terrible service, food is poor and the wait time was 35min for FAST FOOD. If you can't staff it appropriately, close it down.

I came through the drive through at about 10:10 tonight on 6/21. And Kylie the drive through worker was the sweetest most beautiful girl ever. My friend and I just got back from the Jon Pardi concert so we were all dressed up and she said "you guys are so beautiful" and I didn't say it back and I feel so bad. BUT KYLIE YOU ARE THE MOST BEAUTIFUL GIRL IN THE WHOLE WORLD read more

I love sonic basically for their slushy's but also will grab a couple things sometimes we're passing by as a quick alternative because growing up we didn't have a lot of sonic around except for when we travel. I saw this had horrible reviews and chalked it up to just being fast food people like to compare a three dollar burger to an $18 burger and wonder why it doesn't stack up, well in this case, I can see that it is a staffing issue. The place was dirty. They took forever with the orders they didn't take drive up orders, and really everything was just limped to you with no real regard. We got an item we didn't order, and one of our items was wrong with chalk that up to, breaking even I will Say this is not a great location to experience sonic... read more

Sonic Drive-In - Summer 2022 - Burgers Near Me - Bend, Oregon

Want to taste [a bit of] heaven? Get a slush drink, I did. I got the cherry with nerds Right to order quickly Well lighted menu and drive thru read more

careful with double dashing. apparently the employees just don't get fed enough or something but they took my second half of DoorDash order and ate it ? ? like my name was clear enough on it and the dasher even clarified that the employees knew there wasn't anyone by that name at their establishment. and my name came across their online order the same way as my 7-11 order. I am very disappointed in the professionalism displayed today. read more

Food and drinks live up to standards of all other Sonics. The service was absolute trash. The manager, I assume (wears grey shirt), took my order at the drive through and had such a terrible attitude. Bro acted like it was dreadful to have a job. Dude should just quit if he cant handle a "busy" location. Recommended for food, not recommended for service. To that one employee, see a therapist, your life must be miserable. read more

I visited this particular Sonic location two days ago and since 2018 I've been many times but I will never return. I would have given it a zero but it wasn't an option. Wednesday was National Ice Cream Day so I thought I would treat myself to a Oreo Chocolate Milkshake and a chili cheese dog. Big Mistake. 1. Large Milkshake had maybe a tablespoon of ice cream in it and Zero chocolate it was like drinking a large glass of milk with a few crumbs of Oreo in the bottom. 2. The Chili Cheese Dog had Zero Chili 3. Lastly what I like to call the NO Customer NO Service the female that took my order should have called in sick that day as her conversation with me was anything but polite or courteous and she was definitely not helpful. I have been to a Sonic Drive-In in several states and this location is by far the absolute worst. I knew I should have gone to Wendy's and got a Frosty. read more

I see the commercials in California but visited the drive-thru in Oregon. Where is Sonic in SF anyway? DO NOT SAY FISHERMANS WHARF. I'll die. So it's a chain. Done poorly. Hot dog tasted like Bar-S, you know that cheap mystery meat hot dog? The chili dog here tastes like that. Sadness. The fried pickles were ok - then I remembered I cant have gluten so after one pickle accidentally consumed I decided it tasted just ok. The banana shake? *angels sing, heavens open* Perfection. It's so delicious! Tastes like banana cream pie sans crust. I was so happy. I walked through Walmart late at night drinking this delicious fresh banana shake while looking for cruelty free drugstore makeup. (That Hard Candy concealer is a must for my hooded lid cut crease) Living my best life. Join me! 2 stars because the food is as bad as one can expect from a chain but that shake? It was everything amazing. Unicorns and butterflies. read more

Sonic Drive-In - Fresh Banana Shake (so delicious like banana creme pie sans gluten crust!) - Burgers Near Me - Bend, Oregon

Terrible service, food came out unlabled, sandwich's were messy and had sauce everywhere, young lady who came out had a terrible attitude.

Food tasted great, best service, great ambiance. The hotdog was very healthy. The tater tots, not sp much.

I eat at sonic store #5828 north hwy 97. I ordered 2 coney chili dogs I thought it was packaged wrong. When I got home took them out of the bag they was sideways. All the chili and cheese stayed in the bag. I ordered fries which were about a 1/2" long, very hard and not very many for a medium size. There service was bad read more

The girl taking orders was completely incompetent. Got the wrong food. Tots were cold. Radioactive cheese on the breakfast burrito. Absolutely gross. Such a huge disappointment. Coming from Oklahoma where all sonics are amazing, it is huge let down. Stay away from this place! I've had similar experiences at both the Bend and Madras locations. read more

First time I came here I threw up and then I came here again a couple years later with some friends and I threw up again and then more recently I came here to get FRIES And you'll never guess what happened yep. I threw up read more

So I never really write reviews but I thought I would share my experience, My family & I came here on our way out of town we went threw the drive thru and The Customer Service was Awful. We ordered and when we got to the window to pay we asked if one of the burgers could be plain because we forgot to mention it as we are trying to order for a family of 5 and trying to be quick she already sounded mad as she was taking our order, anyways the Girl which came to find out she was the MANAGER was soo rude to tell us that next time we should say that at the ordering window and walked away to then have one of her employees come tell us that her manager wanted us to know that next time we will be charged for it, so you charge to remove pickles and ketchup ? Idk but then as we are leaving they almost forgot to give a us bag of food that was the worst experience I have ever had here. read more

Terrible service, they talked about us and how we inconvenienced them by asking for water, then when told that we could hear them the manager rolled his eyes at me and walked away. Wish I could give 0 stars. So unfortunate that Sonic lost their customer service skills read more

We have been getting drinks here forever!! Went there today and looked at receipt and they charge $.50 for one slice of lemon!! Wtf! That's ridiculous!! read more

We wanted something quick and a hot dog sounded good. Chili was old and dry. Come on guys how hard can this be? read more

Never disappoints foodwise! I've started coming here all the time now; corn dog with fry sauce, soft pretzel sticks with cheese, and a cherry limeade is my boyfriend and I's regular nowadays. A select couple employees need to learn that agressively asking "Would You Like Anything Else." every few seconds is extremely rude. but it doesn't bother me that much, I know I'm getting warm yummy food at a good price at the end of the day. read more

Staff are always very nice. However, the last several times food is under cooked. Today is the chicken fingers order. Just not done all the way through. Great way to get salmonella, folks!!! Last week the corn dogs were under cooked. It is not hard to cook food to spec. Dear owner, I am a small business consultant. I can help. Contact me. read more

Rude. The man at the window was irritated because he thought I wanted a sonic burger. When I told him I didn't, he responds, "I'VE ASKED YOU THREE TIMES NOW IF YOU WANT A SONIC BURGER". I'm sorry I don't come to Sonic often and have your menu memorized. I told him I wanted the kids burgers with cheese and they came without. read more

This was the first time I got nauseous and felt like I needed a shower after going to a drive through. My blast had a greasy palm print on the lid and the guy that handled my card handed it back to me with a thick substance on it. I assume it was related to the substance on my blast. The inside looked pretty dirty and my vehicle smells like greasy body odor just from having the food in there for literally 2 min since I threw everything in the trash on the way out. I'd rather eat at the place on the coast that gave me bad oysters than go back to this sonic. read more

We had 9 people come eat together and they were awesome. The food taste like sonic food. Pretty much knew what we were getting. But the service was fantastic. read more

Sonic Drive-In - Burgers Near Me - Bend, Oregon

I wish I could review the food here, but at 9:30 AM on a Monday morning, I parked and walked over to the outdoor tables to order breakfast. I pushed the red Order button on THREE different menu consoles over a period of 6 minutes. No one ever responded, even though I could see employees inside and they could see me. read more

Pathetic. Always under-staffed, at least 30% of staff is OBVIOUSLY high when I show up. Went there tonight, waited 10-15 minutes to order. Managed by the same people as the one that blew up I imagine. We left and went to the DQ next door, it's really nice, not disgustingly dirty in the kitchen (like Sonic), and properly staffed. read more

Absolutely the most disgusting bathroom that I've EVER seen. Unacceptable and irresponsible during COVID. Threw our food away based on the conditions of the bathroom. Cannot imagine the conditions of the kitchen. Would NOT recommend. read more

showed up with time to spare before closing time. staff turned off the lights early but still let the person in front of me order. dont go here, they don't care about anything read more

So disappointed! My husband and I stopped by to grab lunch for our hour drive home. We made an order of two large combo meals. First off, she gives us our drinks, they were not what we ordered and she gave us medium sizes, even though we ordered large and asked her about it at the window..she didn't fix it. There was no ketchup on my burger (when the girl specifically asked if we wanted ketchup and we said yes). On top of it all..! I bit into a bone in my burger and I'm so disgusted and completely have lost my appetite. Worst Sonic experience I've had. read more

SONIC COOKIE DOUGH BLAST - 3.75 and TERRIBLE. I was expecting a cookie dough filled drink, and I got VANILLA ICECREAM with a couple small pieces of cookie dough on top not even mixed into the icecream. Not worth it. read more

If I could give this establishment a negative rating I would have. I will advise anyone in Madras DONT ever eat here! Customer service is a non existent at this location, employees have no knowledge of the menu or what they are serving. When asked if we were able to get refills on our drinks we were advised they don't provide refills for free. When asked what the cost was they advised no refills buy another drink. This is ridicules in today's fast food environment. After spending 35.00 for 5 people to eat lunch then advised no refills, total BS. I would advise if you want a fast food meal I would stay with a standard of McDonalds which is right across the street and thy provide free refills for free and only charge a dollar for any size drink. Sonic has terrible customer service,non knowledgeable employees and extremely high prices for microwaved food. Skip this place at all cost and go to McDonalds. Sonic SUCKS!!!. read more

No car hops long wait at drive thru. Parking lot filthy. No thanks. Won't be back! Girl was rude when I pushed button to order too.....

Drinks and drink specials are delicious, food is typical fast food that may or may not give you a stomachache. One word-diet cherry limeade.

I rarely ever go to fast food but I occasionally get a bad craving for tater tots. So, when I decide to splurge I head to Sonic to grab a large order. The staff is always nice and willing to cook up a fresh crispy batch! Thats the plus for this place. Other than that the rest of the food is usually pretty sloppily prepared and tossed in a bag lacking in napkins. Unfortunately Sonic is really overpriced....$39 for 4 people (2 kids) ouch! read more

I'm a trucker and parked behind the sonic in bend, and I was so excited to get some food besides mickey ds. Got tots and cheese and a double bacon cheese burger. The tots had cheese on half the tots and the meat on my burger was from the day before. The tater tots were bitter after 2 bites, they tasted like crap. The burger had no flavor at all. I should have known as there was not one person there the entire time I was there. read more

We ordered 3 milkshakes. Chocolate oreo, strawberry cheesecake, and peanut butter. After a 20 minute wait we got a strawberry milkshake with a dollop of peanut butter ontop???, a vanilla , and a strawberry cheesecake with the majority of the shake spilt all over the side of the cup. We asked for some napkins not knowing yet that two of our shakes were the wrong flavor . Barhop then came back with 3 napkins..... Then after we sipped our shakes we noticed the flavors were wrong. Had to go inside and after being handed the wrong shakes 3 more times we finally ended up with the right shakes after some poking and prodding. DO NOT GO HERE. read more
