🍔 Quick Answer: The Sonic Drive-In menu features burgers (including the SONIC® Smasher and SuperSONIC® Double Cheeseburger), hot dogs, crispy tenders, breakfast burritos, SONIC Blast® desserts, slushes in 10+ flavors, Cherry Limeade, Ocean Water®, and Red Bull Rechargers. Prices range from $0.29 (cup of ice) to $11.19 (Triple Smasher Combo). The chain was founded in 1953 by Troy Smith in Oklahoma City and operates 3,500+ locations across 46 states.
If you have ever pulled into a Sonic Drive-In stall, rolled down your window, and pushed that red button, you already know the drill. A friendly voice takes your order, and minutes later a carhop — sometimes on roller skates — delivers your food right to the driver’s side door. That carhop experience is what separates Sonic from every other fast-food chain in America. Founded in 1953 by Troy Smith in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma as a small root beer stand called “Top Hat Drive-In,” the chain has grown into one of the largest drive-in restaurant brands in the country with over 3,500 locations spanning 46 states.
Today, Sonic is a subsidiary of Inspire Brands — the same parent company behind Arby’s, Buffalo Wild Wings, Dunkin’, and Baskin-Robbins. The menu is massive: burgers, dogs, chicken, breakfast, an insane frozen drinks program, and one of the deepest slush lineups in fast food. Below is the full 2026 menu broken down by category.
