Here’s Why You Should Be Buying Your Ice at Sonic

People love Sonic. It’s one of the country’s oldest fast-food restaurants and has been serving drive-in cheeseburgers since 1953. Sonic is known for its corn dogs, mozzarella sticks, limeades and its ice. You can order a cup of ice in the Sonic app or via the website, but what we’re most interested in isn’t on the menu. You can buy bags of Sonic ice!

Can you order ice?

Yes! The coveted nugget ice is available for purchase at your local Sonic restaurant. Like buying McDonald’s ice, it’s super easy to grab a bag for any occasion. Fill your freezer for the week or prepare for a Sonic-themed party.

Never ordered ice from a fast-food place before? Don’t worry, we’ve got you covered. Although you might not see bags of ice on the menu, they’re available if you specifically ask for them along with your order. It might feel a little odd ordering fries with a massive bag of ice, but if it makes your day in the long run, it’s worth it.

How much is a bag of ice at Sonic?

A 10-pound bag of nugget ice goes for around $3, which is a total steal. This price may vary slightly between locations. Considering how expensive it can be to buy a nugget ice maker, we’re more than willing to pay that small cost. Let’s be honest, nugget ice makes us so happy, it’s priceless.

While you’re there, pick up an Ocean Water for me, OK? Just don’t forget the ice!
