Food quality is ok.
This unfortunately is the most affordable food in this entire mall food court. Most fast food in this food court charge close to $4 for a drink or $16+ for a combo meal.
At McDonald's, use the terrible touch screen thing so you can take your time and find the lowest price food options. I was able to get fries, drink and a double burger for $10 which is much more reasonable than almost all the other places here.
Large drink $1.89
Medium fries $4.29
Double burger $3.39
The medium fries are now a much smaller portion than they used to be and they actually put them into a small fry bag only changing the label on the bag to say Medium. But still a better price deal than fries anywhere else in this food court.
The touch screen is really bad. It is way too tall for young adults, teens or anyone shorter than 6ft tall. It is at a 90 degree sharp angle so it is anti-ergonomic for the human body at any height especially due to the height of this damn thing. Clicking, swiping and locating what you want is slow and tiresome instead of fun and easy. For an quick example, compare this with the AMC kiosks upstairs. AMC kiosks are set at a normal screen size, easily accessible for all heights, set at a perfect 45 degree angle, quick, responsive, fun, easy to use and intuitive.
But despite all the faults of the McDo kiosk, use it if you want to save money here. Kids meal is $6 plus tax which is $2 more expensive than Bergenfield, but still cheaper than all kids meals at this mall.
Also, the straws at McDo are all disgusting paper straws. Just ask for a real plastic straw at any of the other restaurants nearby and they will gladly give u one.
