- JRJoseph ReyesJan 9, 20261.0Went to drive through. Had to wait 5 minutes to advance to speaker while attendant socialized with car in front of me. When got to speaker I has to wait another 3 minutes with no one responding on speaker. I drove up to payment windows and complained and girl didn't apologize. She just asked what what was my order. Then she got wrong. I.am never going back to that McD. Hint: always ask for your receipt and check it before leaving payment window.
