I drive on HWY 7 every week and can ALWAYS count on this McDonald's for great service, food, and clean restrooms! The landscaping is also an awesome cherry on top of the restaurant, 10/10

This McDonald’s usually hits. 99/100 times they have an issue. Today was one of those times. I wanted to grab a bite to eat before class and I placed a mobile order. I get there and they confirmed my order and even handed me my drink. They asked me to pull up to the next window and I waited there for ten minutes before knocking on the window. At first I just wanted an eta (since I had class) on the food but then no answer. Another five minutes swing by and I had to call the store to get an update. Minutes after, a lady comes and asks me what my order was. I told them my order and they remade it. Idk if they cleared my order before handing it to me or if it never made it on the grill, but this was unacceptable. This made me late and 7 cars got their hefty orders before I got my singular happy meal. All the managers offered were coupons and not even an apology for the mishap. Utterly disappointed. Shoutout to Jaime though, the good ratings are only for her and night crew. when she is on shift nothing goes wrong with my experience. Her friendly demeanor always brightens my night and it is what keeps bringing me back to McDonald’s. I guess I’ll be sticking to the night visits though.

You can just tell that the people who work here don't absolutely hate their jobs and have good management. I'm a doordash driver and every time I pick up an order they acknowledge me as soon as they see me, get the order to me quickly, they're friendly, helpful and all seem to be in good spirits. Good job, guys!

With a decrease in helpful, friendly customer service representatives in the food industry these days, this location stands out by offering excellent help, friendly faces, and a personable attitude.

Quite possibly the best McDonald's Big Breakfast I've ever had. Great service, hot food delivery to my table, good coffee and was asked if I needed additional condiments. Clean and comfortable. (music was good too.)

This location stands out as superior to other McDonald’s locations in the area. I go here frequently and I am repeatedly impressed by my food being well put together, how quick the service is, and how polite the employees are.

Ok, so this is the first McDonald's where I felt like I was in a future Action Movie! We only ordered Coffee , but the design of this McDonald's is top notch. Overall the best thing other than the cool tables that light up like the floor in Saturday Night Fever, was the mens bathroom . I walked in& instantly knew I was in a fancy Mickey D's. Gone is the usual putrid smell& small stall& urinal, now its replaced with beautiful black tile& fresh clean smell. The stall door was incredible, almost a s heavy as a safe! Only problem, no hand towels in the machine. Other than that its McDonald's.
