When comparing Sonic (America’s Drive Inn), and McDonald’s patrons would “be” surprised to know that these two restaurants are the same in many ways, but their different at the same time. Although McDonald’s and Sonic sell similar food items they both have many differences in store design, menus, and customer service. Sonic Restaurants gives customers a feeling like attending a drive inn movie or a skating rink; whereas in McDonald’s Restaurants there is a golden arch shaped like the letter “m” on the name board outside the restaurant, and in the inside there is a clown picture of Ronald McDonald on the wall. Inside McDonald’s Restaurant are tables and chairs where the customer can sit down and eat inside. Some McDonald’s offers a play land for children. Patrons also can give their child’s birthday party there. Both restaurants are popular in the fast food industry. They both cater to the same type of customers and offer somewhat similar food items.
