    This store is so inconsistent with its service. I rarely have my order correct and when it’s correct it’s cold. I’ve tried having patience and understanding but I have tried for months for give the benefit of the doubt. The only good thing about this location is it forced me make sure I bring my lunches to work everyday instead of dealing with the chaos of maybe getting what I paid for.

    This MCds is the worst. Sunday morning hardly anyone here, waited at the register for 10 min. The floors are filthy, only 3 people working on the Sunday before Christmas. I have the worst experience everytime I come here and I swore off this place but im trying to get out Christmas shopping .

    What a sad McDonald’s this is. The branch manager should be ashamed of themselves. They have not even had a working menu at the drive-thru for months. Can’t even read what’s on the menu. If my business had a broken menu it would be fixed immediately. Especially if I were running a multi million dollar corporation…
