McDonald’s

Take this for what you will this is the worst McDonalds I’ve ever been to and I Drive trucks for a living I’ve driven 3 million miles so I’ve been to one or two McDonald’s before this one don’t bother I order my food fillet o fish and I asked them to cook it well done I don’t want to get salmonella poisoning from these idiots well I watch the girl pull to straight out of of the tray they didn’t cook fresh it was just crap I told him to do it all over again I got an attitude from the manager I asked for extra tartar sauce they charge me for it this place will make you sick and they don’t care because by the time you do get sick I’ll be 100 miles away so they just count on you idiots coming in here and just buying whatever they got. I will never stop at this f****** McDonalds ever again do yourself a favor don’t even stop in this town, it’s crap. so the manager that was working on this date 1÷11÷16 at this time 10:00 pm should either be retrained or fired she is rude and unprofessional…

I must preface this review by mentioning that I am not really an eater of McDonald’s food. Don’t get me wrong, I frequent fast food places like the rest of you, but usually my only reason for stopping at a McDonald’s is for their drinks ($ 1 any size) and for their bathroom, usually some of the cleanest on the road.
I’ve been hearing so much about McDonald’s new upscale options like their new create your own burger with options like your choice of bun (brioche, ciabatta, or lettuce wrap) meat (burger or grilled chicken), six cheese options, and fancy toppings and sauces I thought I’d give it a try. So on a recent drive from the Bay Area back to my home base in Bakersfield, I decided to give this McDonalds, located on the West side of the Harris Ranch exit, a try.
Well… first off this particular McDonald’s doesn’t have the create your own burger option. Dang it… I head into the bathrooms to make a pit stop and they weren’t very clean. Ick. And the hand dryers don’t do a very good job of drying your hands. When I finally gave up on the hand dryers and went out front the girl who’d just left the bathroom before me was grabbing napkins to try to finish drying her hands off so it wasn’t just me.
I decide to order their artisan grilled chicken sandwich as a lettuce wrap. BIG mistake. I’ve ordered lettuce wraps at In-​n-​Out, Carl’s Jr, even Five Guys Burgers and they always come wrapped in several layers of crisp green lettuce. My artisan chicken sandwich had a single layer of VERY LIMP lettuce surrounding it, well, trying to surround it, looking for all the world as if it had become discouraged halfway through trying to cover the chicken breast and just gave up.
And when I opened my bag in the car I discovered that they’d put in a large order of fries, which they charged me for but I didn’t order.
Disappointing experience at best. I won’t be stopping here ever again for anything other than a drink at the drive through.

It’s just a fast food chain that serves food to travelers. Ordered two breakfast burritos and they’re horrendously small.
What can a traveler expect from Micky D?

Chicken nuggets cooked in burnt oil! Didn’t think it was possible to mess these up. Wrong, they were disgusting.

We stopped here on our way back to the Bay area on Sunday 11/​22/​2015. My brother had a chicken salad and water that tasted like dirt. He got sick and vomited at 4:00 AM on Tuesday. My husband and I had water and Mocha. The water was so bad we could not drink it. The mocha was horrible, Syrupy sweet. Could not taste coffee. Bad Mac. On the way to LA we stopped at the Mac where 580 and 5 merge., Mocha was perfect. Any one else get sick from the Haris Ranch Mac ???

Drinks tasted like dirt! Went through the drive thru to get fries, a large dr. Pepper, and a orange hi-​c. When we got them and had driven off, we realized they tasted like dirt. McDonald’s is usually known for their consistent tasting soda’s, however this one was a huge disappointment. It is possible that they didn’t clean the soda machine. Make sure you taste your drinks before you drive off or don’t even stop by this one at all.

I came here this past weekend and ordered a mini meal and 2 chicken mcnuggets happy meals. For the happy meals, I told them that I wanted sweet & sour sauce for the chicken nuggets. When I picked up our food, I didn’t get my sauces so my husband had to go back up and asked the expediter. Then, when I went to get sweet tea, they were out. However, they did refill it pretty quickly (after I told the cashier about it). The interiors does look like it has been updated and there are multiple stalls in the women’s restroom which is a plus. Out of all of the McDonald’s off of I-​5, this is the best one we’ve been to.

Okay so this location is in the middle of nowhere. Stopped by here for gas and some McFlurry. When the car in front of us (drive-​thru) were getting their order, my boyfriend and I saw that the employee gave the guy McFlurry, and the guy refused it. We assumed that it was my McFlurry. After 2 – 4 minutes, it was our turn. The employee gave me the same McFlurry that she gave to the guy. I know because it was kind of melted already. I asked for a new one and the employee hesitantly took it back without saying a word. She gave me a new one. I’m satisfied and contented, but feared that they might’ve done something to it because who knows?

Horrible service. Slow… really slow. Messed up on our orders and forgot to give us our nuggets sauce. Restrooms were meh. Could be cleaner. Try the Carls jr. Next door instead!

Ate lunch here on Friday the 10^th of April, 2015 at about 1 p.m. By 3:15 p.m. had to go home and lay down for hour and a half. Felt very ill. Got worse. By 7 p.m. felt like dieing. Spent the next 36 hours moving between the couch and toilet. Was going to go to hospital if condition didn’t improve by Sunday evening. It finally did. Still I was so weak had to take Monday off from work. I will never eat at this McDonald’s again. My meal was a Big Mac and diet coke. Why isn’t there a hotline at the dept. of health to report incidents like this? Instead you have to go online and search the county dept of health’s website to find out how/​where to report it – ridiculous in 2015. We need an app to tell us instantly when a restaurant is trending dangerous for the public’s health.

Oh Mickey Dee’s — how I love thee.
Your delicious cheeseburgers a guilty pleasure of mine since I was a wee chub-​chub. Your glowing golden arches beckon me from the Interstate.
I know I shouldn’t. I’m a good girl, ya know.
But not today. Today I’ll consume you, tomorrow I’ll regret. If only there was a morning after pill for fast food.
Before this turns into some kinky 50 shades diatribe, hear me out.
This McDonald’s is filthy. And not the good kind of filthy. It’s flat out dirty. By no fault of the employees. They’re doing their darnedest to try and keep up with all the passer-by’s.
But it’s the flies. The Goddamned FLIES! Huge and beastly, I swear these flies are birds in disguise.
You can thank Harris Ranch for this.
These mutant things make eating impossible. And if eating is difficult around these flies, just imagine the kitchen.
Do yourself a favor and don’t stop. It’ll be one less bad decisions you’ve made today.

Long Wait, even if the place isn’t busy. If it gets busy, which is often, it only gets… Um… s l o w e r.
Expect slow service, unless you go through the Drive-​thru… But even that can be slow.
Slow down… Way down if you’re planning on on stopping through.
Great place if you’re slow.

Wow this place was sooooooo slooooow! there was no one here when we stopped in. The line then got very long. We got happy meals for our kids and they put in old toys from previous menus, not the ones that are out on display.

If I could give 0 stars I would. The girl who helped me was wearing blue and she had attitude the moment she even walked over to take my order. Such bad customer service. If you dont like your job get a new one and dont take it out on customers by giving us attitude. I didnt do anything to you but make an order so dont be a bitch. Management needs to talk to their employees about this type of service. Its RUDE!!!

This is a terrible location. Keep driving or walk to the next one if you have to. The chix nuggets were disgusting, rock hard and flavorless.

If I can give you guys negative 5 stars, I WOULD. My family and I were driving down to LA for the weekend and needed gas. We were tired and hungry. So, we stopped by this McDonalds to get some drinks and a quick snack for everyone.
I understand that this is McDonalds and I shouldn’t expect anything. I also know that the employees are most likely not getting paid enough, but come on guys! Don’t roll your eyes at your customers (they gave us one ranch for a 20 piece nuggets meal and when my brother asked for more, he got an eye roll). Also, please don’t slap a frown on your face the whole time that you are taking orders (BRITTANY in the front). I understand from the bad attitude that was oozing out of your facial expressions that you hate your job, but a friendly and positive attitude goes A LONG WAY, despite of life’s circumstances.
Thanks for reminding me one of the many reasons why I DON’T eat at McDonald’s.

Stopped here for a restroom break and a quick bite to eat on the roadtrip home from SF. The restrooms were on par with other locations i’ve been to; not the cleanest, but not the worst i’ve seen either. Plenty of parking, newer/​modern style design and interior.
The food: typical McDonalds. The food service was a bit on the slow side, but the resulting food was fresh. There’s nothing worse than McDonalds fries that sit too long and aren’t fresh. That wasn’t a problem for us. The lady who helped us went out of her way to check the happy meal toys to see if they had the one my daughter was wanting, so that was cool. Tried the new raspberry sweet tea… i’ll stick to Fuze, Nestea or even Lipton brisk.

Service is slow and it smells like cow poo outside and inside. The restroom needs to be cleaned.
The french fries, yogurt parfait, and sweet tea taste perfect!

***Breakfast at this McDonald’s (at least on this one visit) was a step below other McDonald’s locations off the 5 freeway; their Sausage McMuffin with Egg was fine, but the hash browns tasted like Filet-​O-​Fish (they probably did not change the fryers’ oil from the previous night); service also took a little longer than it should have even though this fast food spot was not that busy (I think they needed to drop a new basket of hash browns); the staff was fine and pleasant***
Like most McDonald’s locations, this one has its own free parking lot. The parking lot is huge so it is easy finding an open space.

— My Egg White Delight McMuffin was NOT yolk-​free.
— The restroom was small. I felt like I barely fit in the stall I used and I’m a pretty skinny person…
— It smells like poop outside.
