Ordered a McChicken and they put a junior chicken patty in it… what kind of rip off is this? There is something very sinister going on in this place. I understand it’s another Crackdonald’s but why do the employees have to act like they’re on the funky as well?

Stood in line while the staff avoided eye contact for 20 minutes. Pretty sure it's because I'm white.

There is quite a lot of houseless people who are drug dependent. The other day I went there and people were smoking drug inside and they were blocking the entrance. I understand that it was very cold out there but it puts people in the restaurant in danger because people could accidentally inhale, what they’re smoking. I told the staff and they didn’t do anything about it. I also understand that there is limited security and there’s not a lot of warm places for them to go, but it just makes me feel really uncomfortable. I hope in the future there can be better system in place for them to smoke their drugs somewhere else.
