I have a love/hate relationship with Sonics. They are WAY at the other end of healthy and low sodium. However! When you are looking for a splurge in your diet, Sonics has several treat options. I personally only favor the beverages. I like all the beverage mixins, shakes, and ice cream options. My go-to treat is a Cherry, Watermelon, Vanilla, limeade. There is also a daily Happy Hour from 2pm - 4pm and drinks are 1/2 price. One of my other favorite things about Sonics is their ice. Their special tiny crunchy cubes definitely enhance the drinks. They also sell 10 lb bags of it fir under $2.
The food is pretty 2 star quality, but what can go wrong when Tater Tots are on the menu. The menu is also Toddler friendly. When you need food in a pinch to feed your just fed, but suddenly starving animals in the back, and don't want to get your whole tribe out of the vehicle, Sonics can be helpful. They don't bat an eye when I order a plain, no bun hot dog, small Tater tots, and apple slices.
