We have Sonic's around here (in PA) - fun to go to if you have a vintage car. They have car-hops on roller skates. Food is pretty ... meh... but on a nice summer evening its fun to stop for shakes or something.

Been to one in PA but none of the few we have here in NJ.
Agree the food isnt that great, but cheap and does give off that old drive in feel.

Sonic is very big here, dotted all over the map. Most of the small towns around here have one. The one here in town is a joke. Rude service, high prices, food quality slacks. Lunch hour rush everywhere else is swamped, Sonic if lucky will have 2-3 customers.

We had an A&W here until two years ago. I miss the try on the window and the quality of burgers. We do have a sonic 40 miles away but I'm not driving that far for a burger. Luckily we have two local drive ins that are great.

I know people would like a Sonic here in northern VA, but we have none right now. I can't think of anything similar around here.

The only Sonic I know of around here is on Rt1 north of boston. I will stop if I'm up that way sometimes. It's pretty good for fast food.

Allot of Sonic's popped up in the last few years in Metro-Detroit, there's one close enough to walk too.... I agree the food isn't the best but their "Frozen Favorites" are really good!
