Because there isn't a Sonic near my home I always love to stop by when I am near one. This location is drive in and drive thru. Opted for the drive in this time so that I could take a break from driving and just sit and eat. I got the smash burger and it was delicious, it was piping hot and tasted very fresh. I got a side of onion rings and they were sweet which was a bit unexpected.

Sonic! No No No I haven't been out here in over a year. What happened to the value menu? 1/4 double cheeseburger was the BOMB! I would get a couple on my way to Los Banos to visit my mom, but since she's passed, I don't come out here much, but came out today on my bike still will return to get a couple burgers

8$ for this trash smashburger?? Yikes. This is really sad.

8$ for this trash Smashburger? Yikes! Sad. Reminds me of an old school McDonald's basic cheeseburger? Just unremarkable in every way.

Went through drive thru, the dude taking our order was very script, but it's All Good he was friendly, was able to answer any questions we had regarding the menu & other stuff, not really a talker or customer service guy They have a lot to chose from, burgers, dogs, options on sides to go w/your goodies & not to mention a ton of options on What Do I Feel Like washing the food down with I'm pretty sure w/what ever you do get from here, you'll be satisfied & u have to go w/your gut on what exactly are you feeling like you want to eat, before actually ordering.

Double SONIC Smasher Combo

Honestly used to love this location. Hadn't had it in a few years and in the meantime was going to the Hayward location. That place was hit or miss and more times than not, it just plain sucked. So I was thinking damn maybe sonic just ain't it anymore. Went back to the gilroy location again and it was noticeably far more superior in quality. Very consistent with gilroy. Tried the double sonic smasher for the first time! It was delicious! Finally a fast food chain that has a smash burger that actually is a smash burger. Even had the thin crispy skirt edges on the patties like it a smash burger should have. Great sauce, pickles were awesome, onions and that bun is quality. Unlike Jack in the box whose smash burger is a standard patty like every other one of their dry bland burgers. Great job Sonic gilroy. I've regained faith in Sonic again and now know it's just the Hayward location that blows.

A store that should be open yet they're not because they wanted to go home early!

Would leave 0 if possible! Drove from Morgan Hill to Gilroy to get some late night onion rings with my girlfriend, yet they decided to close well before 11:30 even though they're not supposed to close till midnight! Very disappointed, won't be returning. Service was awful, guy on speaker was rude and sounded angry at the world. The ambiance was also terrible if I might add!

And I am calling and no one answers!

So hard to get someone to take your order unless you're in drive thru. This place sucks in service!!

The staff was incredibly friendly and kind, and the service was very speedy, I was in and out in about 5 minutes. I ordered a caramel macchiato and a danish, and both were so good. I'll definitely be returning again! The inside had a rustic feel and also featured a cute little area with small gifts for purchase. I ended up buying two stickers while I was there. They also offer seating both inside and outside, and parking was easy to find, which made the visit even better.

Gave it a 4/5 because I'd rather have mediocre coffee that gets the job done than watch a fleet of baristas who couldn't bother to spread some morning levity via a smile. Especially the very serious natured cashier on a Sunday morning. The mood was palpable behind the coffee bar. I'm not a never say never, because despite the muted service, giving off vibes, the Carmel bourbon latte w oat milk was on the grail scale of coffees. Mr. E said his cold brew tasted like water. The mocha was good. Their dulce de leche is one I'd like to try if we ever go back... but that may be a minute. Do or don't- it may have been a fluke morning. Do recommend the Carmel bourbon latte.

The wait in line was long, but that's not surprising considering it was Friday night. They need to…read morehire extra staff or schedule someone to work an extra shift for those times it gets really busy. The location itself is a little small so there's not much room for sitting down to eat. Plus the line pretty much runs throughout the length of the store so if you did sit down to eat, expect for someone to always be standing near your table while you eat. The ice cream is standard Baskin Robins Ice Cream. It isn't made in the location so it's pretty much the same wherever you go. I didn't have a smoothie or banana sundae so I can't speak to the quality of those dishes. There were only three people working there when we went but they were all working fast to get the orders fulfilled. Some reviews have mentioned the age as a negative factor. I don't think having younger people work is any issue. There was one interesting thing. No employee was wearing a uniform or name tag and each employee had an AirPod in one ear. Some people might find that unprofessional, but it's Baskin Robins not the French Laundry. Overall pretty solid location. Only 4 stars cause the floor was a little dirty and the wait time.

I would have given them NO STARS but that wasn't a choice. My husband went in to get 2 pre-packed…read morequarts of Jamoca Almond Fudge. They told him there wasn't any in the case and they would have to pack it and then proceeded to charge him the "hand-pack" price of $21.99 per quart vs. the $10.00 per quart for the pre-packed. Further when we opened the ice cream at home it was only half full. $51.00 for 2 quarts of ice cream. We will never frequent this store again and I suggest you do the same.

Somewhat wrong decision and kind of regret not going further out. The boba didn't really had any taste to it, kinda of chewy but was a hard chewy idk, it didn't please me at all. Onto the drinks; Kids got the Oreo milkshakes which were good, they liked it. It wasn't pure Oreos, you can taste like a chocolate powder was added. Our friend got the mint chocolate chip milk shake and he said it was ok and that it somewhat tasted like Starbucks lol Myself got the Thai milk tea and I didn't like it at all. It was watery tasting, not milky at all. Asked for less ice but they gave me no ice. It's the worst Thai milk tea I've ever had. Hubby got a jasmine milk tea which didn't tasted like jasmine, more like a rose milk tea instead. He's an avid jasmine milk tea guy so he knows what he's tasting. And lastly, the parking lot seemed kind of ghetto with homeless guy sitting right in front near the store the time we went.

Almost had a hint of cinnamon, in my opinion. The place was clean with plenry of places to sit. It was a cold and windy evening so not a lot of people destined for ice cream, except for us!
