If you’re in West Columbia, get ready to add a new favorite spot to your list! The popular Sonic Drive-In, famous for its delicious burgers, slushes, and so much more, is gearing up to open a new location right on Airport Boulevard. Whether you’re a long-time fan or if Sonic is just on your radar, this is going to be an exciting development for the area!
Prime Location
The soon-to-open Sonic will be situated in a bustling spot at the 2200 block of Airport Boulevard. It’s conveniently located right in front of the Country Inn & Suites hotel and just across the street from a Shoney’s restaurant. This area is known for its traffic, making it a fantastic location for those on the go who are craving mouth-watering fast food.
Construction in Full Swing
Have you driven by lately? If you have, you might have seen construction already underway! Just this week, we spotted workers making progress at the future site of Sonic. It’s evident that they’re already putting the pieces in place for what will soon be a vibrant and fun dining spot!
There’s even a cheerful banner at the site announcing that a Sonic is “opening soon.” While we don’t have a specific opening date just yet, the excitement in the air suggests it won’t be long until locals can enjoy their favorite Sonic meals.
A Little Bit About Sonic
Sonic Drive-In is a name that’s nearly synonymous with American fast food culture. With over 3,500 locations across the United States, Sonic is a beloved brand known for its unique car hop service, allowing customers to enjoy their meals straight from the comfort of their vehicles. This fun, nostalgic drive-in experience is a hallmark of Sonic, creating a sense of Americana that many people adore.
From juicy hamburgers and crisp corn dogs to indulgent milkshakes and tangy slushes, the menu at Sonic caters to all taste buds. They even serve breakfast sandwiches for those early risers who want to kick-start their day with something tasty. And let’s not forget the amazing variety of toppings, sauces, and flavors, making each visit a personalized experience!
High Traffic Area
One of the best things about the new Sonic location is its high-traffic setting. According to the SC Department of Transportation, about 35,000 cars pass through this stretch of Airport Boulevard each day! This means that the new drive-in is poised to cater to a lot of hungry customers, whether they’re commuters, families, or anyone looking for a quick bite to eat.
What This Means for West Columbia
The arrival of Sonic Drive-In is not just an addition to the food options in West Columbia; it represents a growing and vibrant community that continues to attract new businesses. For residents, this new spot could become a favorite hangout with friends and family or a go-to stop for that late-night snack.
As we await the official opening, keep your eyes peeled for more updates. We’re excited to see what Sonic has in store and can’t wait to enjoy those Sonic smiles along with delicious food! It’s shaping up to be a fantastic addition to our local culinary scene!
