This location is awesome. The staff are great and the food is consistently good. Most importantly the coffee is better than the Tim's across the street!

3rd time items were forgot in my order at drive thru. Your employees are rude and are incompetent. If your in customer service and cant serve a customer properly that means you shouldn't have a job.

If you are planning on going inside plan to use the self serve kiosk or wait 30 minutes before someone even acknowledges you. Need a quick bite and go pee as a worker?? No, again 30 minutes just to have someone even look at you. Out of 4 separate orders not 1 was right and they were all cold, and honestly disgusting. By far the worst mcdonalds I have ever been to anywhere in Canada. I'd blame the owner but there is enough staff on the floor to make things run smoothly.
If you have the choice between starving or stopping at this store I would say starving will leave you more satisfied and staff should be disappointed in themselves. I have never seen so many workers at one time in a restaurant only to find that they take advantage of it rather than supply good service.
