Exciting News for West Columbia: A Sonic Drive-In is on the Way!

West Columbia is buzzing with excitement as the popular fast-food chain, Sonic Drive-In, gears up to open a new location right in the heart of the city.

Prime Location

The new Sonic will be strategically located in front of the Country Inn & Suites hotel and just across the street from the beloved Shoney’s restaurant. This prime spot promises to attract plenty of hungry travelers, hungry families, and even local residents looking for a quick and tasty meal on the go. Construction is already underway, and a friendly “opening soon” banner can be spotted fluttering in the breeze on the site. So, it looks like the Sonic team is moving full steam ahead!

Late Summer Construction

Earlier this week, while cruising by, we couldn’t help but notice the hustle and bustle at the construction site. It’s certainly a hopeful sign for residents who are eager for some classic fast-food fun. The opening date still remains under wraps, but with construction in full swing, it’s safe to say that a Sonic will soon become a welcome addition to West Columbia’s vibrant culinary scene.

What’s on the Menu?

If you haven’t tried Sonic’s offerings before, they surely won’t disappoint! Known for their delicious hamburgers, savory corn dogs, and incredible milkshakes, the menu is packed with options for everyone. You can start your day with their scrumptious breakfast sandwiches, quench your thirst with refreshing slushes, or simply treat yourself to a delightful dessert. Each visit promises to be a tasty trip down memory lane at the drive-in, complete with car hop curbside service—what a nostalgic touch!

A Snapshot of Sonic

Sonic Drive-In is a well-established franchise that boasts over 3,500 locations across the United States. South Carolina has a solid presence in this chain, with 75 Sonic locations sprinkled throughout the state, including more than a dozen in the Midlands area. With such a footprint, it’s clear that Sonic enjoys a dedicated fanbase, and West Columbia residents will soon be able to join in the fun!

Busy Boulevard

It’s also worth noting that the location on Airport Boulevard is not just any street. This busy thoroughfare sees about 35,000 cars per day, according to statistics from the South Carolina Department of Transportation.
