Trick-or-Treat? More Like Trick-or-Trick As someone who actually enjoys Sonic and hasn't been to one since living in Georgia, this was a pleasant and spontaneous stop. I pulled in specifically for a Sonic Blast. I wasn't sure what I wanted at first (I usually go for cookie dough), but after checking online, I saw a Trick-or-Treat Blast being promoted for Halloween which makes sense since it's right around the corner. Today is October 23, 2025. This location, however, had zero mention of the Halloween Blast anywhere. No signs, and not on screen menu. Still, I asked for it at the drive-through, and they seemed to know what I was talking about... or did they!?!!! The young lady taking my order assumed I wanted a medium and didn't ask for my size preference. I confirmed the price matched a medium and went along with it. When I got to the window, the team seemed confused about whether I ordered online or through the drive-through. I explained I ordered through the drive-through and paid with another team member. Then came the awkward moment...the original young lady came to the window with my Sonic Blast, just standing there holding it. We made eye contact for half a second before I said I'd already paid. She said she knew... but still didn't hand it over. I finally reached my hand out, and then she did too. I asked for a receipt, and she gave it easily. My number one gripe is that they're using generic Oreos and M&M's. The difference is obvious in the taste. Call it "Kaleidos" or "chocolate rainbow mini gems," but don't call it Oreo and M&M's (bffr!) that's misleading! To make it worse, the fake Oreos were stale. That's even more insulting. Here's the real issue: according to Sonic's own website, the Trick-or-Treat Blast is described as -- "Trick or Treat every day at SONIC with the Vanilla Trick or Treat Blast. HEATH, M&M's® Minis, & OREO® Cookie Pieces blended with creamy vanilla soft serve, then topped with more HEATH, M&M's® Minis, OREO® Cookie Pieces." So where was the HEATH? That's a key part of the original formula, and my order didn't include any.. not even fake Heath pieces. Full stop. Disappointed!!!! Realistically, a $7 ice cream Blast using off-brand toppings isn't fair practice. Don't cut corners and still charge full price. I didn't even finish the ice cream treat, just sat there shaking my head. It's honestly wild how fast-food spots keep raising prices while the quality goes straight out the window. I hate to sound like a Karen, but this one was a real bummer. read more

Sonic Drive-In - 2025 Vanilla Trick or Treat Blast - Burgers Near Me - Jonesboro, Georgia

I hate it here! The worse location I've ever been to. I always order through the app ahead of time and each time I find myself going to the drive thru because no one ever brings my order out so that feature in the app is useless. I only come here because it's literally in the neighborhood and the next location is miles away! The employees are so dry and unprofessional. And for some reason (today) the cups have a weird smell inside and out read more

Food and drinks are always super good here! Super clean usually when my husband and I go and prices aren't usually too bad for what you get, pretty normal for fast food right now. Staff is sometimes not the best. Sometimes will forget things or take a long time to bring stuff out. But other than take usually good experience read more

I love Sonic's but I hate that this is the only one available in my area for me to go to. Waited at the window for about 20 minutes for nobody to say anything and when I drive around to the window this lady came around with a disgusting attitude.... Stating that she couldn't place my order at the window... mind you, 6 other cars were behind me. We expressed to her that how she's going about things wasn't good customer service..: this is the worst drive through experience I could ever have read more

Sonic Drive-In - Burgers Near Me - Jonesboro, Georgia

I love sonic but this location drives me insane, it always takes 20+ minutes to get through the drive thru and half of the times they are out of something or their payment machine is down. read more

I used to frequent this Sonic regularly as I worked in the area. Nowadays, I can't even stop by for a morning coffee because they open at 9am instead of 7a. That's highly inconvenient for me, but I guess the pandemic slowed business down, so shorter hours. The food is as good as any other Sonic, but they are lacking in the customer service area. Some employees are nicer than others, but most will have you sitting and waiting with no communication. Sometimes they are out of slushies and French toast sticks, so I would have a backup plan when dining at this location. read more

For the past couple of months, I can never get a slushy, smoothie, or shake. This location always say that they ran out or the machine is down. The employees are not polite at all. I did not have a problem was Shacoria who took my order, but had a slight problem with Alexis, the girl that brought the food out. I said hello and thank you and she said nothing and had an attitude. I couldn't even ask for ketchup or mustard because it seemed I was an inconvenience. She needs to have a better attitude towards people. Also, there were hardly any cars there, but it took 15 mins before someone answered my button in the stall. I want to like this location, but the teenagers that work here have no work ethic. read more

Went there parked at stall, when ready to place order, was told we only taking drive thru, was upset and car two over from me was venting also, I was loud and we were talking and was overheard by manager who was sitting outside with gentleman talking got up and told not to leave and took our order. I ordered a number 1 with light mayonnaise, as you can see they gave me the jar, first time back there in over a year, never again, sandwich was fit for nothing but the trash. Worst 30.09 i spent in a while. read more

Sonic Drive-In - Hamburger - Burgers Near Me - Jonesboro, Georgia

See all

This establishment is filled with rude and unprofessional workers. Not all of them , but a hand full of them . I've witnessed them fighting each other , cursing and being irate . I try my best to not leave bad reviews because it's a waste of my time but I had to post this . Maybe- be more selective with the caliber of people you hire , and don't just train them to do their job but also train them strategically how to be a leader and serve respectfully ! I know that it may be hectic sometimes because all customers aren't nice , but a person like me shouldn't always have to deal with these types of attitudes . read more

For the 3rd time this neighborhood establishment has not been able to handle business. They already had issues with service prior to COVID-19. But now it seems that they are understaffed and/or mismanaged. They never took my order at the monitor either time after waiting for over 5++ minutes. The first time we went to the window and ordered and it seemed to be an inconvenience. This time we just left like several other cars. It's a shame because I really like their beverages and pretzels. I hope they improve so I may continue to support our local business. read more

Today 6/27/2024 My Coworkers and I pulled into the lane to order our lunch and suddenly a loud voice screamed over the microphone "ALL ORDERS NEED TO GO THRU THE DRIVE THRU" i then inquired can we place 3 separate orders in the drive thru because some places dont allow it and before i could even finish my sentence she screamed "ALL ORDERS NEED TO GO TO DRIVE THRU".... i pull in the drive thru and was greeted by the same rude unprofessional lady, while attepting to place our order we asked simply " is it happy hour?" she replied " if its 2-4 then YEAH BUT I DONT HAVE A CLOCK" we all laughed at her rudeness from pure shock and disbelif that someone could be acting like this at A JOB she then advised us that shes refusing service, even though we were driving off anyway NO WAY i was eating anything from a place that treats people like this ... I say all this to say, i cant for the life of me understand why these grown adults get these entry level jobs and have poor nasty ghetto attitudes!! if you dont like your job at the drive thru QUIT so the teenagers can have something to do.... i have contacted corporate because something needs to be done about these no customer service workers.. read more

We pressed the button and waited for like 10 minutes, until finally the lady answered and we finished telling her our order, only to find out she was walking to our car because she couldn't hear us. So we repeated it, and finally got our food after a bit. All we got were ice cream cones, which surprisingly weren't on the menu although I knew they sold them. It tasted fine, just regular soft serve. But the tables were very dirty looking. read more

They whole meal was not hot at all. I get so tired of buying food from here and the food is never hot. It is barely warm. Stop having food cooked and placing it under a not so hot heat lamp. It is awful. read more

Drive thru had four cars in the line when I arrived. As soon as I moved ahead after placing my order there was just 1 car in front of me. It took forever to get their order out. When I finally got my food it was cold. What a waste of my time and money. read more

The worst sonic in the world. Why in the world do i have to pull around for a water and then pull around still waiting for water. This is the third time I've coming just for drinks and it's like they had to go to the store to get them. I've previously just left my orders because the wait was ridiculous but today I really wanted my water. They definitely don't seem to have the management that they used to have. read more

Disgusting I found a piece of hair in my Reese's ice cream and all they sent was an apology. was expecting a refund

Where to start... I wish I could give negative stars. Drive thru only at 6:30 on a Saturday. Two cars in front of us in line, took us 45 minutes to even get to the window. We drove 30 minutes because this was the closest, and the damn shake machine was down. Got to the window to find out they hadn't even gotten my order right. One of the "entitled acting" young girls inside was walking around eating, not even working. Not doing a thing. Workers were extremely rude and not smart at all. Then they gave out part of my order to a car behind us after we were asked to pull up. You'd have to pay me to go back here, and this was only the first time I've been there. Simply stunning the amount of pure neglect for customer service this place has. 10/10 would NOT recommend. read more

I ordered the number 4there toasted bacon cheese burger. And this is what I got. It is unfair to the customer,to advertise one thing pay and get another. I will never go to another Sonic again. read more

every time I go here they ice cream Machine is down. At this point they are worse then McDonald's with that excuse. Ice cream and service is what the company is known for, apparently not this location. To add to the issue , food is not always hot and drinks be watered down. im a DoorDasher as well and anytime I get an order her I let the customer know upfront that this is a problem location. read more

They really did an amazing job cooking the pretzel. The corn dog was really good. And the cherry limeade had an amazing flavor. They did an amazing job with the flavor combination. Customer service was great, very accommodating and quick. I was quite impressed. read more

I really like Sonic's. The food is always nice and fresh. The beverages seem to always hit the spot....And the Onion Rings are addictive. I had to stop coming to this place because I enjoyed EVERYTHING that I tried here. They have Breakfast Burrito's, Croissant sandwiches, French Toast sticks, Hot Dogs (I've had better), Chicken Fingers and Sandwiches and of course pretty good Hamburgers. Did you know that they serve a Patti Melt that some locations do not show on the menu?????? Well now you know and you can thank me later for that extra 10 pounds you gain this year from ordering IT! :) And I always need that piece of pepper mint after I eat here. Oh wait, there I am talking about food when the main reason I come here is because I like to consume my calories via liquids. Root Beer Floats are at the top of my list, they have Milk Shakes (also made with REAL ICE CREAM), Banana Splits, Sundae's, Limeades, Fruit Slushes and Sodas as well. *This summer after 8PM every day you can get your Milkshake 1/2 Off!!! And don't forget to this your waitress! read more

The worst sonic ever! I wish I could give it zero stars. They have really bad customer service. The older lady with the curly hair is probably the worst. She sloppily hands you your food and she always has something to say. Then they almost always get my order wrong. Especially when I order drinks. I tried their new frozen lemondade and and I ordered the strawberry lemonade flavor and received a regular lemonade. It tastes fine but it wasn't what I ordered. Then the next day I ordered the strawberry lemonade and instead got a lemon berry slush. And guess who brought it out? The old lady with thw curly hair. Now as much as I hate the service I keep finding myself going back cause ots the closest one during their happy hour I can get to. But what really is keeping me from going back is the fact that they have a scpre of 82 which is too low for any restaurant. I will not be returning to this place. They need new management or something because the customer service and score are unacceptable. Find a better sonic to go to. Skip this one all together. read more

I don't know where to start with this location. Everytime we go their machines are down especially during happy hour . The crazy thing is during regular hours it work for Doordash so that seems very strange. Bad business!!! Then we go today & we're waiting at one of the drive up booths & someone greets us on the speaker but never tells us that they are ONLY do drive-thru.. REALLY! So now the drive-thru line is long & it's blocking me from backing out.. Once I get in line the Machines are DOWN AGAIN! This is ridiculous!!! Now I'm across the street at McDonalds getting a icee. This is bad business for Sonic, they really need to get it together before they go out of business... I've seen so many cars drive away. read more

First of All I'm not rating Sonics on their food, I'm rating them on their drinks! So many flavors to mix and match or go plain...its so much fun! Ok so I went today for "happy hour" 2pm- 5pm all drinks half off and I orded a lemon berry slush for me and hubby ,2 small orange slushes and 1 green apple slush for the boys (they don't have the apple juice slush anymore). The drinks were great and it only came out to $3.00! Everyone enjoyed it and they boys think I'm the bomb because they get treats like slushes after school. Don't forget to try their cherry limeade its so good. Have fun! read more

Wow...where do I start?? If I could give 0 stars, I would. This is the second time I come here (was thought to always give people the benefit of the doubt) and the experience has been horrendous. Our whole order was $40. Gave them $20 cash and the rest on card. They couldn't figure out how to do it, all 3 of them in there didn't know. Finally just did 2 separate orders ‍. Then we got 2 shakes and the milk they were made with was sour; beyond disgusting!! Got home only to see the fries completely soggy with oil and the wrong burgers . I'm very disappointed to say the least. I've had Sonics a few times in Arizona and it was a completely different experience. Never coming to this location again!!! read more

I came here with my son twice now and we've had great service everytime! It's so convenient to sit in your car while you wait for the food. This is definitely great for people with infants and babies that would just like to sit in the car and order food that is delivered at your service. Ya, I know there are drive-thrus, but the difference between Sonic and a drive-thru is that you're not being rushed to order and leave. You can order in the courtesy of your car and the choice to eat after you've received your meal. Don't forget to tip the lovely ladies. Love it! read more

Slowest establishment on earth not just this one but most of them! I'm not sure if they are under staffed or they just move super slow

The worst service. Slow. I went here to buy a small sonic blast half was nothing but whipped cream and the other half was literally toppings, There was no ice cream. I will never be back again. They are entirely to slow even when there isnt many people. read more

Workers are very rude and impatient, I told one of them at the window that there was a hair on what she handed me and all she had to say was sorry. read more

I don't know about y'all be every time I go I get my food quick fast and in a hurry and I love the fact you can pay before the server gets to your car. read more

Going to this Sonic is a joke, and the true definition of insanity. Every time I go, I think that I'll miraculously get better service. The girls ALWAYS have an unprofessional disposition. This time my husband and I went to get slushies about 6pm today and the machine was down. I give credit where it's due, so the woman working the drive thru did offer an alternative option, to our surprise. Keep her if you figure out who she is. We tried again at 11:42pm and after sitting in the drive thru for a couple of minutes a young Asian female came out of the door behind the menu and said "we're closed now to clean the store" and walked off. It was not midnight. I used to be a server and we served people who walked in one minute before closing. I have never taken time to write a review on the poor service this location provides 9.5 times out of 10, but tonight takes the cake. Don't allow this review to change your mind about all Sonic locations, just save yourself the trouble/frustration and choose any location other than Pointe South. You'll be disappointed. There was a Caucasian young man who provided us with excellent service once. I think his name was Matthew. We haven't seen him again though . The culture of that location wasn't right for him anyways. I hope he went right across the street to work at McDonald's. Now that's some excellent guest service! read more

Worst Sonic I've ever been to. Usually sonic has a certain charm but this one is lacking. My hotdog was soggy and ripped before I ever picked it up, my slush was melted completely at the bottom, the server wasn't friendly and it seemed like it was a problem when I asked for something (like a new fork because the one given to me was soaking wet-yikes) it was a problem. read more

I don't like their food. At all. Once we ordered a grilled chicken combo meal and a children's chicken tender meal and everything tasted exactly the same. The fries, tenders, onions rings, just bland. The grilled chicken sandwich had zero flavor and the lettuce and tomato must be genetically modified cause even those tasted like air. The winner is the Slushies though. Half hour happy hour works as a mini family outing. Two Slushies, a children's Hi-C and a medium shake (not half off) came in around $6. Now that's a win! I may try some other foods in the future but so far it's not worth it. read more

Whoooooo it amazes me how anyone can work in a customer service job. Literally sat at the drive in area for 15 minutes after ordering, and nothing. But let me assure you, there were plenty of employees just sitting and standing around outside. So we go to the drive thru, and man, what kind of idiot did they have on the mic? "Can I have a small Oreo caramel shake and a medium coconut cream pie shake?" "OK....so you want a coconut shake in what size?" "No, a MEDIUM coconut cream pie shake." "OK...so you want an Oreo shake and caramel shake?" "No, an OREO CARAMEL SHAKE. A small one." "OK, so you want an Oreo shake or a caramel shake?" "I want an Oreo caramel shake. Together. On the menu." "OK so you want an Oreo shake with caramel in it?" "YES." And we drive forward.... And realize they have no window...whaaaa? They only get a star because the food came out good and hot. But whoever that female was...wow. And us waiting outside for nothing... Good mozzarella sticks and shakes though! read more

Went here because I was super hungry, ordered a burger and some popcorn chicken got burnt breaded pieces I guess were supposed to be popcorn chicken and a cold burger with cold cheese. Never ever post bad reviews but this place has got to do better it was awful, I'm now too far to drive back wish I would've noticed prior to my leaving! read more

just ewwww. like how are you still in business? i want my money back. we didn't even finish the garbage we were given.

Sometimes I forget that there are kids working with attitudes and they don't know how to behave professionally yet. The service was awful and it's not the first time. ‍ I need to speak to the owner. read more

Sonics is my favorite spot for a quick breakfast before work. I've become addicted to their tots and slushies. I've had numerous compliments about the staff including a breakfast on them on one morning. It took me by surprise when I asked one particular day if they have turkey or chicken sausages and the response was "ma'am sausage is pork." I think the lady may have tried to laugh at me for asking, but the joke was on her due to her ignorance. I settled for just tots because she said that the pork could not be substituted for chicken. Which kinda pissed me off, but oh well. I've been back numerous times and never a bad experience again. I'd surely recommend. read more

Took fooooor ever to get 2 milk shakes and a burrito like wow what the hell kinda shit is that

My fiance and I went to this location to get lunch. We waited at the drive thru for at least 10 minutes with no acknowledgement from the staff. There was one car in front of us so we waited and still no acknowledgement. We pull up to the window and the staff is all standing in a circle laughing and having a good time. We still stayed at the window watching and no one ever looked our way. They were to busy laughing and having a good time instead of working. I wonder where the manager was at while all of this was going on. read more
