Sonic Drive-In
Sonic Drive-In #4923 (1,820 square feet)
2001 W Mercury Boulevard, Power Plant of Hampton Roads, Hampton, VA
This location was built and opened in 2003.
I've seen a few Sonic locations recently that have received some light exterior modifications, which includes the removal of one of the isolated canopies like you see here. I don't know why they're taking these out, but I guess it's because it's one less area the employees have to service, plus I don't think Sonic can fill up an entire parking lot anymore. When this location was built back in 2003, Sonic was huuuuuuuge in the area. Since then, I feel like they've fallen off a little and it seems like Cook Out is the hot spot for that type of food now (as a matter of fact, I tried getting photos of the Cook Out down the street today but the drive-thru line was so long that I couldn't even circle the building!). For now, this pictured location still has the original look and both isolated canopies.
