McDonald’s

The aesthetics of this McDonalds are great. It is a modern, hip style. However, the service, although friendly, is unbelievably slow. I wanted to scream while we waited about 20 minutes for our order while multiple employees stood around doing nearly nothing at all. The one woman taking orders just stood there doing nothing when there was no one to take an order from. She could have jumped in to help get some of the food. The woman who was supposed to deliver food to the tables stood around doing nothing while there was no tray to take to a table. She could have been helping get an order together. Another woman with a cloth in her hand was perhaps supposed to be cleaning tables, but she was standing in the area where orders were put together doing nothing. There was only one woman putting together the orders and she only did one at a time. If there was a wait for an item in that order, she just stood there waiting rather than staring to get food for the next order. This was during the lunch rush. I worked in a McDonalds myself for three years many years ago and I remember everyone hustling during the entire shift. Not here. Not a single person was moving faster than molasses.

This place is shitty as hell… Lots of fake highly tech shit, to make it look fancy. Food quality still sucks, and I think service is worse than before.

They have a new program where they are wasting a lot out on the money on paper bags and a whole bunch of fancy stuff.

Very clean even has TV’s to watch

Broken AC with high humidity floors all wet not a safe place. Did I forget to say how hot it was in there!

Hey, we have all been there. Driving down a highway early in the morning. Haven’t had any coffee yet or a bite to eat. Pangs of hunger and caffeine cravings shooting through your brain. You pass the multiple exit signs on your way and then you see the Golden Arches of McDonald’s listed on one of them. Egg McMuffin and McCoffee here I come — next exit!
It’s the perfect little meal to get you over the hump, energized, and on your way. Not too greasy or fattening. Not really enough food to make you bloated and sleepy. Just the perfect amount of egg, ham, cheese, and carbohydrates. Also, I do dig McD’s coffee as it usually tastes pretty good in the morning — but wow, is it hot!
My parents and I were headed to the Hard Rock Tampa casino for the day and we had another 90 minute drive ahead of us. We had left the house early to get a head start and were all hungry. This seemed a good choice as it would be a quick stop.
As McDonald locations go this one has the same menu and offerings as most. The big difference is that this one is a retro-​McDonalds that you only find in select suburban areas. It has the famous Golden Arches and old-​school architecture that give it a distinct structure and look. It even has the red stripes on the outside, a few tables of umbrella’d patio seating in the front, and the McDonalds charactor logo from the 1950’s-60’s. Inside it has an old movie theatre décor and vibe with movie posters, faux scenery, and props set up. A few modern era tv’s are playing showing the news and some other shows. The whole place was spotless too, and there is also a drive through at this location.
Counter staff was friendly and we received our food quickly. Nice and hot. We sat down at a clean table, ate our breakfast, and headed out to the highway.
Really, I have no complaints about this place and can find little wrong with it. Sure, it is a McDonald’s, and it is fast food, but I just have to give this location four stars. Call me crazy, but sometimes you just have to go with what your heart feels, no matter what other people might think.
