McDonald’s

This location makes you pay for any extra sauce packets and are super anal about it and they don’t even accept Amex as a method of payment. So disappointing

Finally had a chance to try their poutine ($ 4). All I can say is meh. Places can charge a premium if they offer a premium product, but this honestly just tasted like a pile of McD’s fries, with gravy and cheese curds dumped on top. If you’re going to market this as poutine, please at least use thicker cut fries like you’re supposed to. This dish to me is just «fries with extra gravy and cheese curds». Not worth the extra $ 2. I think I’ll have a burger next time.

Nice interior, though a fairly dirty place. Had a chicken BLT sandwich meal with some nasty burnt bacon in it.

One of my fav’s, a classic, been here for years yet they’ve renovated in past year or so. A good one for me to pop by before/​after No.1 Hwy.
Big parking lot, drive thru, and obviously more of a family atmosphere being in a residential hood.
Free wifi, best french fries, this one’s a keeper — even a casual date, but of course, maybe for teenagers ;)

Terrible service and food served lukewarm at best makes a visit to this McDonald’s both frustrating and angering.
Although the drive-​thru is open 24 hours, the service severely tanks during the late nights. For example, the person taking my order lost track of what I ordered the moment I drove up to the pick-​up window. I was nearly charged for someone else’s order, and after having waited 20+ minutes, I thought my transaction was finally complete.
Nope.
They failed to give me everything I ordered and the fries were cold. I drove back to the window to claim what I had bought and complained about the fries. They defended themselves by arguing that the food was prepared the moment I ordered them. I was the least bit convinced.
Normally, I come to this location in the mornings for coffee as I’m driving to work. A large double-​double is all I ever order, but it’s never consistent. It’ll either be ridiculously sweet or sugarless.
This place needs to smarten up their act.

My co-​worker went down here to pick up some lunch — well the burger she got was almost completely raw inside. I’m talking pink… like they stuck it on the fryer for like 2 seconds and then stuck it in her burger. I’m so disgusted with this place. I haven’t had McD’s in years and this encounter she had just reminds me of how much I distrust this place.

Requisite viewing/​listening:
Not so much a review for this particular McDonald’s… but just a review for McDonald’s in general. There’s no surely way to start an argument with me than to start slagging on McDonald’s. I don’t care much for politics and I can stomach most religious superstitions… but you don’t talk trash McDonald’s.
First off, the fries are delicious. I dare you find another fresher and more consistent French fries… anywhere at any price. Maybe I grew up hood, but McDonald’s was always a treat when I was growing up (seriously, as a stupid kid, McDonald’s was better than delicious dim sum). McDonald’s orange drink is delicious. And I can say without irony that McPizza is probably the best fast food pizza ever created (the shit was made-​to-​order, yo!). Most of my friend’s first jobs were at the Golden Arches. Like Nivea, I spent an exorbitant amount of time at various McDonald’s parking lots. Leftover food was eaten. Porn star names dubbed. Restaurant supplies stolen. When I was in Japan as a poor student, McDonald’s was all I could afford… I’m honestly one of the few people that can honestly say I lost weight on an all McDonald’s diet.
PRO-​TIP: Need ice for a gathering or a BBQ? Swing by McDonald’s with a cooler and ask politely. They will hook you up (provided they aren’t low on ice) and just ask for a donation to Ronald McDonald’s PlayPlace. Make a charitable donation in exchange for some ice? That’s a win-​win.
I must admit it’s probably been a couple years since I’ve patronized MickeyD’s. But with $ 1 drinks/​iced coffee all summer. Free WiFi and 24 hour lobby at most locations — you’ve lured me back. Hell, they even brought back the McRib. HOLLA!
At this specific McDonald’s they have all listed above and actually have a decent outdoor patio. My friends and I have stopped going to Tim Horton’s.
Sure, the birthday party red caboose is long gone — but cross your fingers and maybe McDonald’s in North America will start hosting weddings:

I just found out that the muffins on display have been sprayed with hairspray to last longer on display? Came here for a quick breakfast. Big Breakfast, toast dry. Junked the hash browns and had a coffee.
This was the least greasy of big breakfasts that I’ve had. BTW the caboose is no longer there. I had so many fun memories as a kid having birthday parties there.
There are flatscreens TV’s everywhere! Free wifi too. The nise thing about that is the easy login for wifi.

The best part of this McDonald’s is the caboose. I used to have birthday parties there as a kid, and get all warm and glowy about it when I still see the caboose sitting there now.
It’s still available for parties, but we found out that the birthday person has to be under 12. Sadness. I’m too old for the caboose, and all the children I know are still too young to fully appreciate the magic of the venue.
I can’t wait to again taste a McDonald’s birthday cake and wash it down with some orange drink.
