Sonic Drive-in Is Coming To Michigan

[Jordan]

Ok, I started to laugh when I read this post for the first time. I didnt realize that Michagen didnt have any of these places, If I drive withen a 10min drive I get KFC,sonic, chikfla, taco bell and taco bueno, long john silvers, quizznos and about 2 dozen other restaurants. I rarely eat fast food, but take it for granted that some places dont have these everyday joints.

I live pretty much walking distance to this Sonic in Southgate. The line on a daily basis is long for drive up, can still expect hour+ wait to place your order most of the time.

The food itself wasn't very good unfortunately.

Going to try something different in a day or two as well as a few misc drinks.

The Sonic Drive-Thru is open, at the corner of Pontiac Trail and Haggerty Road!!!!!!!

....and it's GOOOOOOOOD.

[Slogo]

Announcement of Public Hearing – Rezoning Application – Proposed Sonic Restaurant,

East side of John R, North of Fourteen Mile Road, Section 36 – B-2 to H-S (FileNumber: Z-735)

SONIC drive-in planned for Oakland Mall area

By Terry Oparka

C & G Staff Writer

TROY — In keeping with a land use plan to give consumers more choices on how to spend money near Oakland Mall, the council gave the go-ahead to a drive-in restaurant.

The council unanimously approved a rezoning request for an undeveloped 1-acre parcel on the

east side of John R, north of 14 Mile Road, in the Oakland Plaza shopping center.

The new H-1, highway service, zoning replaces the former from B-1, business zoning, to accommodate a SONIC, America’s Drive-In restaurant.

Under the city’s new Master Land Use Plan, the 14 Mile and John R area is designated as an area focused on varied commercial products.

AAAAHHHHH good ole Section 36 – B-2 to H-S. I remember when you were just a field.

Who's buying me new pants??????

NOTHING beats 100% PURE ANUS

[TygerLili]

I have been wanting to check out the one on Pontiac Trail.

Do they have anything (vegetarian) that I can eat?

[Slogo]

^i hear they have good shakes, unless you don't eat dairy either. In which case I hear they have good slushes, unless you can't have sugar, but I'm done trying

Oh, finally. Because my mom keeps fiending for a cherry limeade and though she can make one at home, she insists that she must have one from Sonic every time one of their commercials comes on.

Well it's good to know that when I come back to visit Detroit there will be a Sonic to go to. I'll tell you one thing you all have that is missing from Sin City... White Castle. We have a Coney Island (that imports Faygo, Vernors and Better Maid chips) and a Detroit Style Pizza place just no place to get sliders after the club. It's kinda sad

I posted on an expats forum recently, about how much I will miss White Castle, when I get over to Wales. All the yanks who have moved over to GB already were bellyaching about missing Taco Bell. I can take that, or leave it..but White Castle-- I will never get over The Crave.

ok...I'm gonna say it...their drinks are AMAZING....but their food could use some work.

Best fast food I ever had was Rally's, when they first opened....the origional Big Buford...the 46 oz cup of fries that were AWESOME.

Sonic is second to that...IMHO

Nope, no White Castle west of the Mississippi. Their evolutionary niche is places where the winters are cold and the livin' is hard. I missed it when I lived in Cali... but at least there's one in Lansing now! Way back in the early '80s there wasn't one closer than Southfield.

[DarkVampire]

We got one in Grand Rapids a few months ago. I used to go to them when I lived in Tennessee. Ah Chili Cheese Tots.
