Fast-food chain Sonic Drive-In has filed plans to build a new restaurant in Prince William County, its first outpost along the Interstate 95 corridor in Northern Virginia. The 1,400-square-foot restaurant, with two drive-thru lanes, 12 pull-up ordering stalls and a dining patio, will be located at 4115 Talon Drive in Dumfries, part of the Barracks Row at Quantico commercial development less than a mile northwest of the I-95 interchange at state Route 234. The location “will constitute a flagship Sonic design that will serve as a benchmark for future restaurant drive-thru development,” according to a written narrative accompanying the application, filed by Noah Klein of Venable LLP.
