May 2024 · 2 minute read

SONIC has reportedly confirmed it will bring back an iconic side dish after fans begged for its return.

The popular chain appeared to axe its beloved pickle fries from the menu earlier this year.

The move will have come as a sharp blow to fans, with customers salivating over the dish since 2022.

One desperate diner even went so far as to launch a petition to bring the fries back in July.

"Petition to have Sonic bring back the fried pickle fries," they wrote on X, formerly known as Twitter.

Fortunately, they won't have to wait much longer for their fix.

Sonic Drive-In is reintroducing its pickle fries to menus September 11, Chew Boom reports.

The delicacy features dill pickle spears cut into the shape of a fry and battered in a light tempura coating.

They are then fried up until crispy and golden, with each order accompanied by a side of ranch dipping sauce.

"Sonic pickle fries are everything," one fan wrote after they hit restaurants in 2022.

"Sonic has pickle fries on their menu and I’m obsessed," another gushed.

The news comes after Sonic launched a new summer drinks menu with choices inspired by celebs.

It invites customers to “remix your drink” by ordering a base soda, slush, or lemonade, and then choosing from various flavor add-ins.

These include options like cranberry and sugar-free mango flavors, real fruit such as cherries and lemons, and even NERDS Candy.

In total, there are over 100 possible “remix combinations.”

Sonic isn’t the only fast food store that is serving up refreshing beverages this summer.

Chick-fil-A has delighted customers by bringing back the limited-time-only peach milkshake.

 Starbucks, meanwhile, has three new frozen Refreshers which will now be a permanent feature on the menu.

The U.S. Sun has reached out to Sonic Drive-In for more information.
