Sonic the Hedgehog Speed Cafe Pop-Up Serves Up Chili Dogs

Sonic the Hedgehog Speed Cafe, a pop-up restaurant based on the games, is opening in Georgia. It will be opening in Chamblee, Georgia on January 18, 2025.

The Georgia location of the Sonic the Hedgehog Speed Cafe is the fifth location of the restaurant. It opened in multiple spots across the US prior to this. The first appeared in San Diego, California in 2023. Other locations included a second California spot and one in Texas. It’s a collaboration between Sega and the Secret Sauce Society, and as usual the new installation will feature a selection of Sonic the Hedgehog food and merchandise. It will take over the Won Kitchen location temporarily.

The menu for the Sonic the Hedgehog Speed Cafe will, of course, feature chili dogs, along with onion rings themed around the series’ iconic rings. Other menu items include the fried chicken Knuckles Sandwich, Piko Piko Tenders, Fast Fries and Green Hill Vegan Chili Cup. New items for the Georgia location include Rogue’s Kickin’ Chicken Sando (fried chicken sandwich with pimento cheese), Chaos Spear Fries topped with marinara and Drop Dash Cookies (deep-fried Oreos).

Drink items on the menu include Blue Blur (blueberry) and Smashing Echidna (fruit punch) slushes and Team Dark (mocha) and Sweet Amy (strawberry) milkshakes.

Here are some of the items available from the menu:

The Sonic the Hedgehog Speed Cafe will also sell exclusive merchandise, and food will be served in special Sonic-themed packaging. Some of the merch is available to buy through the Speed Cafe’s official website.

The opening of the pop-up restaurant comes at a good time for Sonic fans. The release of Sonic x Shadow Generations in October 2024 was met with positive reception and the third Sonic movie, featuring Keanu Reeves as Shadow, is currently doing well in theaters.

The Sonic the Hedgehog Speed Cafe pop-up location will open in Chamblee, GA on January 18, 2025 for a limited time.
