McDonald’s

This is, without a doubt, the slowest McDonald’s I have ever been to. There is no time of day I drive by hat there isn’t a line wrapped around the building and God forbid I stop here for food I realize why that is: they take forever. There are plenty of other options around this area if you have another option: choose it.

This review is about McDonald’s in Omaha in general. Unfortunately I will be the first to admit I eat at McDonald’s way too often. But as a result of this, I have come to determine there are some that are clearly better than others.
My biggest complaint that I have with OMAHA McDonald’s is the fact that there are two franchises in Omaha, and they don’t share the same price structure. I first noticed it this fall when they decided the $ 1.00 any size soft drink or iced tea went away at the one franchise called DARMCO. Unfortunately, I am not aware of the other franchise name. Anyway, DARMCO raised their prices — the franchise owner of this unit did not. They finally did raise their prices somewhat. Their large drink went up to $ 1.29. Well, to make a long story short, DARMCO is not at $ 1.69 for a large while the other franchise is at $ 1.39. The McDouble is $ 1.49 at DARMCO and $ 1.19 at the other one.
It’s very frustrating to have to figure out which price structure is at what unit. So far I have determined that the units on south 13^th street, 40^th and Dodge, 42^nd and I-​80, 78^th and Dodge, and 108^th and Q are part of the better priced franchise. It’s unfortunate, but the one that is just a few blocks from my home at 132^nd and Maple belongs to DARMCO, because they used to be a great unit, but I can’t bring myself to pay more for the same thing I can get at another unit that is usually right on my way somewhere.

O.K. So I decided to lower my breakfast standards and swing thru McDonalds drive thru expecting to be disappointed in some way, as usual. It’s kind of like being in a bad relationship. I know the $h!ts gonna disappoint me, but I keep going back for more.
No line. Check. Place my order and they get it right. Check. Pay with my debit card, check. Wowzer, this transaction was going great. In fact, I thought this is too good to be true, which it was.
The woman at the register handed my debit card back to me without a receipt. Uh-​oh. I asked for a receipt, she said they are out of register receipts and there was no receipt tape in the entire restaurant. I asked if she was positive a receipt could not be printed out at one of the other registers and she again said no way, because all the registers are out of receipts and they do not have replacement receipt tape in the whole place. I drove to the next window, get my overdone, dried out, cold hash browns and unexceptional egg mcmuffin and ask for a manager. The lady who handed me the subpar breakfast stated she was the manager. I suggested they inform customers there are no receipts available before their cards are swiped. She also told me they are no receipts in the entire restaurant. I told her that I would not have proceeded with the transaction had I know that fact prior to my card being swiped. I asked for the store manager’s name and she said she suddenly remembered one of the registers had tape and she could send my receipt to that register. I told her I asked the person at window «1» that exact thing and she lied and said it was not possible because there was no tape in the entire restaurant.
I do not appreciate being treated this way and I can honestly say I know when to call it quits. This is the end of this wishy-​washy connection; I am completely over this place.

Horrible service. Worst McDonalds I’ve ever been too. Counter girl was too busy talking to an off duty employee to help. Had to ask for my food after it came up in the window.
