- [R5] Jersey Mike's Point system is great: App is very convenient generous points on purchases 👍
- [R12] Jersey Mike's Not easy to customize orders: Overall pretty good app but has limited customization options which I can have them apply if I order in store
- [R62] SONIC Drive-In Easy, smooth app: Love eating at Sonic, and the app makes it easy. Just wish there was a section to add more sauces. EX: marinara, bbq, ranch
- [R66] SONIC Drive-In Customizations: I like the deals and that they’ve added rewards. The only downside is that I always have to order in person since there isn’t an option to add sweet tea to slushes and that’s my go-to order (Peach slushy w/ sweet tea & lemon wedge). And even when I order in person, they’ll enter it in wrong and I still can’t get the drink I want (which is why I prefer ordering through the app).
- [R2] Jersey Mike's Consistency: I really have a good experience with apps when it comes a to ordering and traveling. I travel for lacrosse and no matter where I go I can use the app to find a place nearby and place the order without nearly any thought. I love that it’s so easy to use the find my location on the app. Then when I get there the food is constantly the same no surprises. Consistently consistent! I love i
- [R24] Jersey Mike's Jersey Mike’s: Fantastic app, order is always on time as promised. Good people service.
- [R61] SONIC Drive-In 1 star: so bugged out never works i will not be spending money with this company your mom vile number feature has been broken for months now
- [R82] SONIC Drive-In App Sucks: I love Sonic, however their app is something else. It will not save a credit card or even work in general half of the time. I have had so much trouble with it I have quit using it.
- [R20] Jersey Mike's Great sandwich: Love Jersey Mikes! I get them in FL and in MA and I always know what to expect!
- [R96] SONIC Drive-In Horrible app: The app never works for me! Every time I go to check out, it’ll say there’s a problem sorry we can’t process your order and then I wasted 10, 15 minutes of my life for no reason
- [R117] SONIC Drive-In Probably the worst food app in existence: Terrible app! They got rid of the half price drinks for a “redeem” system that then never works.
- [R3] Jersey Mike's Really a tip?: The food is good but the prices are too high for what you get especially the drinks And in the app they're begging for tips that's just not cool at all a tip is for exceptional service not to compensate for low wages, seriously do you tip the cashier or mechanic that fixes your car or plumbers? They certainly aren't begging for tips...maybe they should...but sin this company got bo
- [R9] Jersey Mike's Points: It would be nice to earn more points especially when the food is so expensive, only 7 points for a $28 order is not worth it
- [R79] SONIC Drive-In Rewards: Their rewards program is not good. It says you get to legend benefits and you get 1/2 price drinks. That is not true. Customer support stopped responding to my emails after I did what they said and it still didnt work.
- [R114] SONIC Drive-In Love Sonic, but…: …they’re slowly taking away things that have been around forever. First of all, 1/2 price drinks of using the app is seldom an option anymore. Second, you can literally only order ONE condiment of any given type. One? You used to be able to specify how many, up to three of any given kind. I guess capitalism claims yet another good thing.
- [R8] Jersey Mike's Best Staff: Best staff around. Very friendly and great workers
- [R11] Jersey Mike's Denton Jersey Mukes: Awesome crew- great food and service
- [R92] SONIC Drive-In So ic App is Great WHEN IT WORKS!: Last 5 weeks I get an error can not process at this time. I’ve done all but delete my account. From deleting to reinstalling to clearing cache to updating. Calling Support is a Joke! They don’t help. Troubleshooting says go to sonicdrivein.com but no search no way to ask for help when you’ve all ready done it all.
- [R104] SONIC Drive-In App pulls rewards: If you use a reward, then switch briefly to a different app, this one will pull the rewards out of your cart. I didn’t realize it and ended up paying full price for stuff I was using rewards on. No way to contact customer service in it either. A total scam of an app.
