McDonald’s

Fine (somewhat recently renovated), but minus one star for the panhandlers who wait at the door for you and then open the door for you in anticipation of tips.
Mayor deBlasio won’t do anything about that, but management should!

The chicken nuggets were a bit stale here. I guess this is one of the major criteria I use to compare McDonald’s. I have very refined taste in chicken mcnuggets.
In any case, they do have a cool soda fountain that allows for mixtures of different sodas. Try the Orange Diet Coke, my favorite.
Prices are cheap. $ 5 for 20-​piece, which is cheaper than they were 20 years ago.

Worst McDonald’s you can ever go too first it’s all full of homeless and thugs then i always order and the cashiers are very rude and mean the manager is a small lady who is very rude and says when you walk away i can’t do anything for you she also saw a fight and watched not doing anything to stop it this place is a dangerous mcdonalds and won’t receive service from me anytime soon.

Service here after midnight is pitiful. Air conditioning is always broken, bathrooms are always in disrepair or so disgusting you don’t want to use them. Chicken is always cold, ice cream is almost always closed, why are things so terrible at this location?
I’m disappointed, but it’s on the way home, so I routinely stop hoping it would be better. Once, my fries were so cold, I wouldn’t even give them to a dog. The response from the associates is terrible overnight. I’m just super disappointed.

Fast service and decent fast food. Made my coffee right and they decorate the space nicely compared to other McDonald’s I have been too.

It’s McDonalds.
The Big Macs are BigMac-​ey.
The Filet-​O-​Fish is Filet-​O-​Fish-​ey.
The French Fries are Frenchy-​Friesey.
What, do you not know what McDonalds food tastes like? It tastes just like the last one you had, duh.
BUT!!!
Get your huge empty paper cup, turn away from the counter and head towards that Magical Glowing Heavenly Soda Machine, offering you a bazillion flavor combinations, and CREATE.
If you’re not a soda person — this doesn’t matter to you.
If you are, this is a MAGICAL place. The Peach Mello Yello alone sends shivers of delight all through every tiny bit of my very untiny body.
If I could live there, I would.
Yes. It’s worth 5 stars. It IS.
(Plus my cash card works there fee-​free, so I can load up on cash, too).

They really jazzed things up since the last time I came here. Looks like an Elite McDonald’s. The service is quick & efficient.
My only issue with this McDonald’s is that they make you wait in a single file before calling you over to the register to take your order.
There’s four registers with four employees more than capable to knock out orders in a timely fashion. It’s confusing because sometimes you don’t know who’s next being that people sort of linger off to the side until a register opens up.

Their bathroom is right at the front and they serve McDonalds. Mayra, you are the bomb for buzzing me into the bathroom.

This is a pretty standard McDonald’s. I can only really vouch for their breakfast food, because that is the only time I go there. It’s basic McDonald’s. I’ve seen cleaner places and more friendly staff, but so it goes. This is an average McDonald’s near midtown.

Came here around nine am for breakfast… there’s allot of people in this particular Mc Donald’s…probably cause it located in the city… Place opens 24 hours… The lines are all over the place… Your not even sure where you are suppose to be standing… But finally that ten min of waiting I finally got to order… got a plan ice cream sundae with peanuts, two apples pies and sweet ice tea… The seating area is upstairs… There’s a lot of seatings… so don’t worry if there is no seats… there’s two cleaning ladies upstairs… always tying to keep the place spotless… The bathroom is quite disgusting… there’s two toilet in each restrooms… there’s no door stall… so pretty much everybody can see your business… The area is extremely cramped… You can bearly move… The sink doesn’t work right…

Why am I reviewing a McDonald’s? Valid question.
One, because I am procrastinating on the things I actually have to do.
And two, because when my boyfriend ordered a 10-​piece chicken nugget, they gave him EVERY sauce. I’m talking, Honey Mustard, Ranch, Barbeque, Chipotle something or other, Jalapeño stuff… and they didn’t charge extra.
For a McDonald’s? That’s pretty great.

This is the only McDonald’s I’ve ever been to (and I’ve been to many, in the US and elsewhere, over the years) where only one person is ever taking orders… which obviously causes a large group of people waiting, waiting, waiting for their food… and it doesn’t matter what time you come in. Every single time! No matter what time of day you go there. They need to tighten up their game!!! Seriously.

I’ve been to this location NUMEROUS times and only a handful of times has the service been good. Workers are ghetto, do not have as much customer service than you can get elsewhere (healthy). I have stopped going here for more than six months now.

Help is slow. Place is dirty. Not one table is clean. No way what I ate was a quarter pounder. Small sandwich from what I’m used to. Bun is stale. Fries half full. All for $ 8.50. Stay away.

McDon’tDoIt!!!
WTF!!! No way is corporate paying attention to what is going on at this location. 11:00 p.m. Sunday night, everything for two blocks is closed so I try this Mc Donald’s. Three people in line, full staff working the kitchen. 10 minutes later I reach the counter to listen to the biggest drama queen bending his managers ear about his boyfriend and getting wasted last night. Food took another 15 minutes to come out, 21^st century soda dispenser was out of just about everything. I am a convert, I will never again eat McD’s. I’ll starve, better for the gray hairs.

I don’t normally rush to post on Unilocal no matter what the experience is, but my time at McDonald’s was one for the ages and even for McDonald’s standards…
I first walk in and there is a group of 5 or 6 employees huddled in the front corner BSing with the manager about some check drama with the overnight staff… It all seemed pretty pointless, mundane and something that shouldn’t be discussed with other employees let alone with customers in ear shot… But that’s just me!
So the girl in front of me finishes ordering and moves to the side… Now naturally I was assuming that it was my turn to order… At first I didn’t think that she saw me even though I was clearly in front of her, but I didn’t think she could be that dense… So I began to order… Guess what!?! She didn’t see me… She was too wrapped up in the aforementioned payroll conversation… I was finally able to put my order in after she put her two cents in with her co-​workers, she almost forgot the fries that I ordered but I was able to catch her in time…
So now I wait… and wait and wait…
Now everyone that is working is huddled in the corner talking about the payroll drama… When another customer walks in… She catches him pretty quickly this time and says «Welcome to McDonald’s!» Don’t worry this service doesn’t last… She then interrupts his order to ask a question about two of her female coworkers that came into pick-​up their paychecks… After she makes her comment she let’s the customer to proceed… Until…wait for it… wait for it… Her phone rings and she proceeds to have a conversation before putting her child on hold to take the rest of the order…
Now while I am waiting for over 6 minutes… I get to hear the co-​workers cursing in Spanish… BSing with each other about god knows what… Learning that there is only Diet Soda and basically it isn’t her problem and she doesn’t care to elaborate on why there is only diet soda… She doesn’t know the menu…
When I finally get my food I open the bag and while they had my order right my medium fries were only filled half way and spilled all over the bag… So now you can see why I had to Unilocal about this right away because I would have completely missed some of these crucial points of service expectations…

This particular location needs to work on customer service.

Mannnn when I step into McDonalds *obviously* healthy eating is not top priority, so put more salt onto my fries girl! Seriously, my fries tasted like nothing… like it was healthy or something. Disgusting.
Otherwise your average McD with slightly higher prices since its midtown. Oh yea they don’t have trays if you wanna eat in, nor a ketchup stand with those small ketchup paper cups. So you just gotta rip off the paper bag and unleash packets of ketchup on it.
Hrmmm but it is ²⁴⁄₇ so… good drunk food?

This is officially the slowest McDonalds franchise I’ve been to globally, and I’ve been to quite a few!
This is the third visit to this franchise and last.
It really is like ordering food in the third world, every stage is just done one at a time with a break between each…
I waited 9 minutes (I started a podcast and I just finished as they handed over my burger) for a McDouble. From where I was standing I could see the bottom burger siting out on the bin for a good while, while the other burger was being cooked.
I was so hungry I didn’t bother saying anything, I didn’t have time.
Lets face it, if your dumb enough to eat at McDonalds, you deserve bad service.
Maybe not the food poisoning this franchise gave me though.
P. s. see if you can spot the guy sitting on the prep tables in the back watching TV. He has been there the last two time I have. I hope he is not the manager…
Addional Tips —- it asks if it «has TV?» I said yes, but it’s only for the kitchen staff!

What is a Shamrock Shake? It’s a seasonal shake (milk?) by McDonald’s with green food coloring thrown in designed to exploit another made up holiday, St. Patty’s day.
You can tell it’s fake as crap because the food coloring they throw in doesn’t blend well. Parts of the shake will be a deep shade of green and then rivers of white will intertwine with lighter shades of green. This is your first warning: there is nothing natural about this drink, proceed at your own risk.
In the name of Unilocal,I purchased a shamrock shake to review. What does it taste like? At first… not bad actually. Like a melted down Andes Mint, cooled and thrown into a shake. It doesn’t quite taste like a milkshake, it just tastes like a chocolate mint melted down.
This is good for awhile… until you reach the halfway point and you’re disgusted and want no part of the shake. Not sure if it was just overkill for me, or if its the shake in general. Worth a try, bu nothing to call home about.
