    Lady was screaming at customers, cursing, fighting with employees. We’ve waited in the drive through for 20 minutes while the lady screamed through the window that she doesn’t care how long it’s been. Worst McDonalds experience I’ve had

    Floors very greasy. A person could fall very easily. No hand soap in restrooms!!!!! Bathroom very dirty !!! Having homeless people ask you for money while trying to restroom is concerning . the cleanliness of place needs to be inspected. Super disgusting.
