    Ordered at the kiosk, food arrived 15 minutes later. Food was cold. Staff seemed overworked (unfriendly, exasperated replies). Friday at 6:00pm. Maybe 30% full in the dining area, drive thru seemed steady.

    This location is horrible. I don’t have super high expectations but, truly, any of the other local locations woukd be a thousand times better than the service one gets at this store.

    I do not post a review unless it’s amazing or by far the worst. This McDonald’s is by far the WORST out of every store in the entire Metro and surrounding area. The waits are always wrong, the service is horrible, food is consistently inaccurate. Today I waited for 10 mins for a coffee only in the drive thru. I finally called the store asking what was going on. They need some serious process changes to get this store up to par.

    Pull you around for a sandwich and fries. Shouldn't be necessary for such small orders. I've had this happen on multiple occasions. Once sat only for them to mess up my order 3x not sure why I continue to give business, but definitely done at this point. Several failed attempts.

    The only person that had customer service was the man who took my order. The lady at the pay window shut the window then opened and just said are you ready. No hello, how are you nothing. The person at the food window didn’t even say a word. Didn’t offer a drink tray nothing
