This sonic has the best staff out of any fast food chain. The workers are friendly, fast, and helpful. Not to mention I had the classic sonic experience of receiving my food on rollerblades. The employee was extremely polite, friendly, and enthusiastic, he even gave us free small fries while we waited. The food was all hot and correct, and something about getting it on rollerblades makes it better. This sonic has always been fast and consistent, but the employees go above and beyond to make sure your casual fast food experience the best it possibly can. read more

the workers have a very "i just work here" vibe but they all are cool about it. they are quick to help for any way. peak fast food place, 10/10 would ask for another cup of cherries on the side read more

Food: best drive through for a double burger, cheese and bacon w milk shave. The Burger was as good as any flat top burger from any restaurant in the Low Country. Milk shake was the best ever. Love the big straws on thick shakes. Service: the side orders don't work just drive thru. Kinda defeats the purpose of a Sonic. Skates and waiter delivery, NO MORE. BOOOO! The drive thru did not mess up the order and quick. read more

Came here for lunch and was extremely disappointed not only are the prices outrageous the food was terrible i ordered a cheese burger ketchup only the burger came out swimming in grease and was barely cooked couldn't even eat it read more

Stopped by for a quick bite and this has to have been the worst experience at a fast food restaurant in possibly forever. We ordered a hamburger, a chili cheese coney, medium chili cheese tots, and a small blast. We were charged $5.99 for the burger, to which arrived with cheese and was so messy my daughter could only take a few bites. The coney had been sitting under a heat lamp for way too long and was quite disgusting. My tots were swimming in grease and the Reese's blast had red juice in it but no cherry. Very disappointing. read more

Sunday 5/30/21 - 4:40pm When it's a hot day and a slushee is sounds good, head to Sonic! It was "happy hour" so all drinks were half price. I had a mango slushee sugar free and only 5 calories! It was refreshing and tasty, complete with a little brain freeze! read more

Wish I'd seen the 2 stars before stopping. Waited extra time to get a burnt double cheeseburger with almost uncooked bacon, two teas with almost no ice, and they forgot all condiments and napkins. And when I went to ask for the napkins and condiments I didn't get a 'how can I help you,' just a stare that seemed to ask 'what do you want?' The outside appearance is equally horrible. If you can hold off a few miles I highly suggest that you do. read more

While visiting here it was hot enough to want a nice cold drink. We ordered the banana pudding shake with real nilla wafers. The shake was delicious tasted just like you were eating a banana pudding read more

Sonic Drive-In - Fast Food Near Me - Bluffton, South Carolina

Understaffed. Twenty minute wait in line. At least two cars pulled out and left the line. Filthy conditions in mens room made me feel ill. The garbage receptacles were overflowing and rusted. The service window was covered with greasy fingerprints. Not going back. read more

Ridiculous place.. very poorly run and rundown. Needs the owner to get more involved if people are finding hairs in their food! read more

The worst customer service. The young kid with the dark beard is beyond rude . This employee was rude at the window and rude at the drive in Sonic - Bacon Cheeseburger read more

ordered a small chocolate chunk brownie blast. I got a medium cup filled with vanilla soft service and about 5 pieces of chocolate chunked and brownie pieces on top, NOTHING in the shake just straight soft serve. read more

this is the worst place to go, I believe, in Bluffton! We ordered two drinks and two corndogs. We drove away and pulled the corn dogs out of the bag! They were chard beyond recognition! I don't even know what that was! We went back to sonic, drove up to the window, and the kids said sorry, do you want us to drop some new ones? We asked why they didn't go ahead and drop new ones when we were there. We asked them how they could possibly serve these to a customer and not feel bad about it. We asked to speak to the manager. The manager said that these were the last of the corn dogs that had been dropped previously. We asked when they were dropped, yesterday? It looks like they've been sitting under a heat lamp for three days. Were they not ashamed to serve this nasty, burned food to paying customers? He also asked if we wanted new food. We said absolutely not! We want our money back. We told him he should be ashamed! The last time we went to sonic, when they open the drive-through window, all we smelled was marijuana! This place is disgusting! Never again! Don't go here! There's no telling what kind of food you're going to be served. And I gave it a one star review because it would not let me post this without at least give him one star! Believe me, they did not deserve the one star! New management is seriously needed!! Clean this place up!!!!! read more

See all

Ordered a few drinks in the drive through and one order was incorrect. Tried solving the problem by using the patio kiosk and no one would respond to my call - after 10 minutes of waiting for them to resolve a drink order, we left. Patio was filthy and the windows were completely covered so customers can't see inside. It would be nice for someone to at least acknowledge a customer that's waiting. Terrible customer service. read more

So, we went to Sonic one evening so that we could get some ice cream after a long day and they were all out of ice cream.... Yes you read that right.. sonic out of ice cream. So be aware. I have a feeling this is the second time I have heard that going there. read more

Horrible customer service , employees are obviously very lazy. Won't serve you food to the stalls , which is sonics motto. I cannot believe how awful this was. If I could rate lower I would. read more

Super nice and very quick with my order! Cherry limeade slushy was delicious of course.

had the BEST experience thanks to Sugar Baby getting us our shakes and making us feel welcome on the patio. Thanks so much for your hospitality you rock!!! read more

AWFUL experience!!!! Food tastes great but that's the only good thing to come from my trip to sonic. They forgot to give us food we ordered, gave us no straws for our drinks or sauces for our meals. I didn't even get the cheese to go with my pretzel! When we asked where the rest of our order was the started closing the window! I have never had workers as clueless as they were, when asked where the rest of my order was! I am NEVER going again! read more

Took forever to get a small chocolate milkshake and it was $4.50 or so. They must use water rather than milk or ice cream and don't get the "whipped" cream as it was a solid laying on top of the chocolate water mixture. More like a custard than whipped cream. And of course they could not figure out to provide a straw...just a spoon for scooping off the whistle stuff. Too bad there is not a zero rating here. read more

Just went through the drive through on Easter and had to go in twice to fix the order. Specifically asked for Coke Zero because my wife is diabetic. They ensured me that it was good and it was not. No one holds anyone accountable and it's sad. If I could post lower I would. read more

Never been to Sonic as I'm out of town. Stopped by, hit the button to order, sat there for 5-10 minutes. No one ever came. I was the only one in the lot at 11am. Luckily, there was a Wendy's across the street. read more

This place is terrible, one day the stalls do not work and they have us come through the drive thru the next day we have to goto a stall and they are rude about it. Avoid this place they are not nice at all. read more

Every time I've tried to go they have no ice cream and no hot dogs. Like that's half the menu?

They're under new management, but the girl who took my friend's order didn't understand the meaning of "no chili" and we had to go back thru to get new fries. My slushie was good and everything else was good. read more

The first time I stopped here, went into the bathroom and there was feces smeared on the walls, sink, and the floors, and I let them know and they told me they were really busy. My second time coming here, I stayed in line for 30 minutes just to find out they had no ice cream, I suggested they put a sign up to let customers know and the mf told me I can come inside and make it my damn self. There is no way in hell I will be coming back. Dirty dirty dirty , nasty rude. If I could give negative stars I would. Don't recommend coming here for your physical and mental health. read more

Reheated burgers.....wilted lettuce....soggy fries@ Not good at all! Do not waste your time or money.

My wife and I were driving t Hilton head Island for a vacation on July 31, 2021 and stopped at this Sonic Drive in to use the Restrooms and perhaps have lunch. The restrooms were tiny and on the outside of the facility. I have traveled the world and have been in some of the poorest countries like Egypt, Nigeria, Lebanon, Algeria and Peru, to name a few. In all these travels, I have never seen a restroom as filthy as the one at this Sonic Restaurant. It was truly unbelievable. I am not exaggerating! My wife had the same experience. Brad O read more

absolutely the worst sonic ever food never fresh literally waited 35mins in line just to order liters everyone and I mean everyone that's works their is rude and uniflorm is always nasty. got out of my car a walked into the area where they were prepping the food no one said anything until I yelled and ask for manager all of them just sat their and look and me then one ask what the problem was. I was waiting on the curb for them to bring ou my food he then explained that he forgot I was sitting there, but he could get someone to start my order, and by the way this was the so call manager. I could go on and on about this place and don't even bother to call corporate because they won't respond. At this point it need to be shut down. So ended up with no food and i was there for almost an hour read more

This is probably the absolute worse Sonic I've ever been to. Service is awful, it looks super dirty and rundown. Minimum 5 times a summer during happy hour, the slushy machine doesn't work, conveniently enough. It's a mess! I would give it a 0 but it won't let me. read more

This sonic must be good. 2.5 star rating. Been to a sonic 4 times now and regret every time. The worst fast food place I've ever had. 2 times I ate food and got violently ill, use your imagination, 1 time I got a slushy that tasted like chemicals I had to throw away after 1st sip. So I decide to go to this location. Waited behind 4 cars for what felt like 45 minutes for 2 shakes the only reason I stayed was because we were amused reading the bad reviews on yelp. The manager was running not sure why. Just pathetic and horrible service. When finally got to window they didn't even know my order. Need to fire the whole staff especially the manager read more

I came here at 10:04pm and they had everything down except ice cream and fountain drinks an hour before they close!? I also had to wait 40 mins just to get 2 drinks. CLEAN YOUR KITCHEN WHEN YALL CLOSE. read more

We ordered 1 hot fudge shake and 1 chocolate shake. When the server brought them out I asked which was which. She said "I have no idea". I asked how I'm supposed to tell them apart...she again said "I have no idea". The shakes were leaking all down the sides, I asked For napkins and she said "I don't have any I'll have to go inside". I immediately dialed the # on the receipt To ask for a Manager and it rang and rang, no answer. We will not be back! read more

At first I didn't have a good review to post. Girl who answered when I tried to place an order was giggling and cracking up with someone and it took awhile to start the order. Then the order was wrong.. But the wonderful lady on skates (#10) totally understood, recited back to me what I wanted, took my card and handled it. She also let us keep the incorrect food delivered. A gentleman came out to deliver the correct order and apologized profusely and had given us a discount for the extra time, etc. They're really trying. New management and food was hot and tasty. Strawberry shake still amazing. Thank you. read more

This is my first and last Sonic visit...it was bad. Horrible service. There were 2 service people there and one left while we were waiting for a simple order. When I asked the other person, "What is taking so long?" she said, "We are short staffed." When asked, "Then why did the other person leave?" she said, "There is nothing I can do if her shift is done." Imagine a snotty tone. The other 2 customers received wrong orders and slow orders. NO soap in any of 3 dispensers! That means days being out! Not going back. The commercials talked me into going there. I felt like I needed a bath when I left. NEVER AGAIN! Go somewhere else...anywhere else!!! read more

Ever since they hired the new manager, this place has turned around! Everyone is so nice and my order is always right. Even better, I don't had to wait forever to get my food anymore! read more

Dont call it a bacon cheeseburger toaster if your not gonna put bacon on my food. Not really a big deal for me myself. Good Mozzarella sticks though read more

awful management. asked 3 times for ketchup and still wasn't given any. not only that but the chili cheese fries were awful and smelled old. someone one needs to help this place out because they're obviously struggling read more

Is the slow and careless fast food ever. I just went to this location to have just a chicken strip sandwich and a soda and took me like 25 minutes by the drive thru to have it. It's the slowly drive thru in the bluffton area. read more

lmao my mother and i stopped here to order some strawberry lemonade slushes. we drive away, about 3 miles away, we take sips of them- mine is only syrup ( we got larges. you literally could've used that syrup to make at least 7 large slushes) and hers is the same, but with minimal ice (i had no ice). usually it's a pretty good experience but this time we wasted something like $8. but hey- the food we got (corn dog, tots, fries) was pretty good. read more
