Ordered food through the app around 6:30 pm on Saturday 1/21/23. Parked my car in spot 3 for curbside service. When my order arrived, it was delivered by an 11 year old boy. I asked him how old he was. After he gave it to me, he briefly left and then came back and solicited me for a tip. He was not subtle or nice about it either. He told me he was helping...

McDonald's Missing food

I had to take my granddaughter to work this morning and had her 4 year old twins with me. W live in the next town over (about 20 miles). We stopped at restaurant 35656. It was dark and rainy and a long line at the drive thru, so I did not check my reciept or the bag when I got it. The girl had read my order back to me correctly. That is another reason I did not check the order. It was 7:09 am on 1/19/2023. The price sounded the same as what we paid a few days ago for the same order. When we got home, we had 3 hashbrowns and one sausage mcmuffin. Of course it is too far to go back and complain. The twins do not understand why they have to split one sausage mcmuffin. I am really upset about this and I guess from now on, no matter the circumstances or how long the line is behind me, I will hold up the line while I check the reciept and then again while I check the bag and make sure the order is correct. It was order 22 and the authorization code is 712259. There are several restaurants to choose from at this location, but I always went to McDonalds, but guess from now on I will choose a different restaurant.

I went to McDonald’s in Red Bay, AL tonight. I was drinking my wonderful Mocha Frappe when something salty entered my mouth. As soon as I tasted it, I pulled it out and it was slimy! I immediately stopped the car and threw up in the middle of the road. It was sooo disgusting. The lady at the window seemed very nice so all I can figure is someone had spit a...

We went to McDonald’s 1/17/23 to the Old Jackson highway location in Tyler Texas, and our order was put in completely wrong. Then we get to the window to get out food and the girl hands is our food, not very friendly to begin with and we stated we had asked for 2 large sprites. (Which we did but did not get entered into our order) she then goes “okay I’m...

McDonald's Service

My husband went to get the kids something for breakfast and when he got home he noticed that not all the items that he ordered were there. He was never given a receipt and went back to get the items that were left out and was treated very rudely and was refused service. With both of us working in the food industry you learn to understand the customer is always right whether they are or not and it would have been a quick fix but instead they acted childish and immature and was disgustingly rude. I went back and asked for the managers name and she wouldn't give it to me and I told her I was going to call corporate anyways whether she gave me her name or not. The staff that was working at the time was also rude and immature and I think they don't deserve to have a customer service job when they don't know how to treat a customer appropriately. I will never be back to any McDonalds and I'm very upset, disgusted and almost want to hire a lawyer for the discrimination against my husband. This could have been and easy fix but instead they made it harder and I will tell everyone I know what happened.

McDonald's Service (in general)

Thursday 12 January 2023

McDonalds fast food restaurant (Drive Thru)
Restaurant #22074. Customer #1381.

Was only one in Drive Thru lane at about 8:12pm, and no vehicles in front or behind me at the time I ordered.

Ordered two #1 meals (Big Mac’s with Large Fries, and 2 large Diet Cokes. Paid at 1st window (all good so far), got the drinks at the 2nd window and was asked to park in waiting area. I asked for BBQ sauce with the fries while at the 2nd window. I also asked why move me to waiting area, as there were no cars behind me, and the #1 meals are usually very fast to prepare? Didn’t really get a response, other then there system tracking told them to.

After about 10-12 minutes, the employee finally came out, they gave me the bag, which included only two spicy McChicken sandwiches instead. (Note: there was no effort to communicate or verify what the order was by the employee, and the employee had walked away before I had a chance to look into the contents in the bag. Once I realized the had given me the incorrect order, they did not respond to my verbal responses to get their attention, as the employee had already walked away. I had to turn off my vehicle, get out of the car, lock it, and catch up to the employee to inform them they had given me the incorrect order. I informed them I had requested two #1 meals (large), with BBQ sauce as condiment.

Another employee came back this time, and gave me my order, but it did not include fries, only the 2 Big Mac burgers. The employee stated that I had only ordered the two Big Mac’s, and not the meal. I informed him this was not the case. He asked for my receipt, which clearly stated 2 Big Mac Meals (large). I gave this employee my receipt, and it was taken inside the store.

The employee came back, with only 2 small fries, which was only noticed when I had already returned home.

I also had to re-ask for the BBQ sauce, which I had asked for early in this ordeal. I did not return to explain about the fries, as I had already spent 20-25 minutes all told at a “Fast Food” restaurant (that was not busy at the time I drove up).

This experience took nearly 20-25 minutes all told. Meanwhile, about 6-10 other cars came and went through the drive-thru with orders. This was the worst it's been, but there have been other times where orders were not correct at this store, and usually involving being told to park in waiting area. The employee(s) tasked with providing the food to my vehicle did not communicate with me (the customer), and actually acted bothered that I wanted my order correct, after 3 attempts, and should have been four.

I will not deprive my kids with some of the fast food they occasionally enjoy, but will likely be driving out of my way to another location for awhile. Fortunately there are other McDonalds within a few miles of my home. I really like to patronize local businesses in the area (been in this location since 1989), but really am not seeing improvement at this particular store. As stated above, zero communication with employee’s delivering orders to waiting vehicle(s).

Desired outcome: Train employees to verify contents of what they are giving you; or at least give the customer a chance to view contents, before leaving. This is in reference to drive thru vehicles that have been asked to move to waiting area.

McDonald's Food

Ordered a value meal. 2 cheeseburgers and fries
In last line asked for catchup. No packets available told shipment did not com in
Eat cheese burger no pickles, assuming same answer? If I order a cheeseburger no mustard in do not expect Pickels held too. If they were out I Would think that would be disclosed at time of order.
I paid 6 dollars plus for a meal I would not pay 3 dollars for.

Desired outcome: Disclosure at time of order maybe a coupon for a meal

McDonald's Cashier getting into verbal confrontation with another employee and consistently slow lines and incorrect orders

Last evening January 11, 2023 at approximately 9pm I was in line and placed my order in drive up at the McDonalds at Westview Plaza in Belleville, Illinois. As usual at this location the line was extremely slow. Once I got up to the window to pay the cashier the young woman got into a yelling match with another employee. This went on for at least 5 minutes or more. We finally decided to leave without our order. This location in the evenings especially has extremely slow service and orders are often wrong. I am 70 years old and have enjoyed McDonalds my entire adult life. This location is an embarrassment to the good name of McDonalds. It should be closed until management can assess the ongoing problems and hire competent managers and employees.

Desired outcome: Better management, staffing, timeliness and service.

McDonald's Food

•1/11/2022 at 10:15pm•

I arrived to the McDonalds in Jasper, AL; The one that’s located on highway 78 to be more specific. I made a mobile order while I was there and proceeded to stand there and wait on my food bc they were not busy at all, what so ever. I had a chicken nugget happy meal for my son. I waited at this place for 25 minutes, inside. I get home, and my baby has no fries and no toy in his box. I live about 18-20 minutes away and I am tired from work all day and as much as I want to go back and get those fries and that toy, I do not feel like it. So I’m making this complaint bc I feel like this was nothing more than simply not paying attention and genuinely not caring. It’s obvious that this box goes to a child, so why not try to make sure it has all of its items before it goes out to be served. They weren’t busy so it can’t be blamed on that. The chick just didn’t see it bc she didn’t look bc once again, she didn’t care. This doesn’t seem like a big deal to some, but my baby wanted his fries and toy which is what a happy meal is all about to a kid. Thank you to the wonderful half way employee that couldn’t even give us the toy and fries inside of a happy meal. Yet that was all we ordered. How sad.

Desired outcome: For no one else to get this kind of negligence and maybe some coupons to make up for the actions of the employees at this store.

I went through the drive through like I do most mornings and ordered a simple order. An iced coffee; no cream; extra caramel. The screen showed no ice so I politely told the gentleman taking the order that I want ice in my ICED coffee, what I don't want is cream. I have a dairy allergy. So I get to the window and while driving away realize there is no...

McDonald's Drive through during lunch rush

January 3, 2023 11:07 AM. App order @485 Eastern Bypass, Richmond Kentucky. I went during my 30 minute lunch using the app so I could be back to work on time. I sat 22 minutes at the drive through speaker waiting to either hear someone there to take my order or figure out the app to cancel my order. Ather canceling my app order I drove to the window. They tell me they are closed. A sign at the speaker would have been nice to know or someone there to announce they are closed as we pull up. I was not the only one there. A lot of angry customers driving off.

Desired outcome: I feel I should be compensated for the inconvenience because the situation should have been handled differently. There was 4 people in there. The app order for free at the bare minimum is my desired outcome.

McDonald's Hamburger quarter pounder fries pies

Stopped at this McDonald's in Eufaula and ordered a PLAIN hamburger meal and quarter pounder SUB BUN FOR PLAIN BUN meal well the plain burger turned into regular burger w/ket mustard pickles, and quarter p sub BUN was never subed and my husband has diverticulitis it could have killed him, fries were like rubber. Staff not helpful or friendly! So your employees can not read or they were ready to go and didn't care, but I do because had my husband ate the sandwich he would be in the hospital at least a week if it didn't kill him! I usually just chalk it up as wasted money and go somewhere else but this could have killed my husband and that's totally unacceptable!

Desired outcome: This is not about the 18.00 it cost me but about making you aware of quality of service & food from this location in Eufaula Al
