Jr. Burger

    The small, cheap burger for the back seat. A little patty with the basics on a soft bun, perfect for kids or for an adult who mostly came for a drink and tater tots. It is simple and honest, and at Sonic’s happy-hour prices it is barely a decision.

    Troy Smith opened a root beer stand called the Top Hat Drive-In in Shawnee, Oklahoma, in 1953. After seeing a restaurant in Louisiana where customers ordered through speakers, he wired up intercoms at every parking stall, and sales tripled. In 1959 he renamed it Sonic, promising “service with the speed of sound”.

    Around 3,500 drive-ins across the United States, most densely in the South.
