I bought a hot chocolate drink from McDonald’s at Riverside Retail Park, Chelmsford branch. It was made of water rather than with milk and was disgusting. I don’t know if this branch is taking short c... See more

Maccies Sucks

Mozzarella stick things taste like a freezer. Philly burger tasted disgusting. Arch burger is like £10 alone. You can get a whole meal so much more better and cheaper somewhere else. Chicken Big Mac is too dry too boring and stupid. Stop making food more big
Make it better. You are a fastfood place
How can you mess this up so badly

Terrible - Northwich McDonalds drive thru reaches new low.

Terrible - just terrible. Not only could they not muster up one single Bacon and Egg McMuffin in nearly twenty minutes, when asking for a refund the floor manager grunts "what do you want?" I couldn't even be bothered. You can keep the couple of quid - based on the quality of service, you obviously need it.

Not the best place to eat

I’ve ordered McDonald’s a few times and a lot of times I’ve had an issue. There were times my order was perfect and hot to finding a bit of hair, but other times they have forgotten items or the food is ridiculously cold. The prices are terrible aswel. They now charge for a service when the food is an issue aswel as customer service

Placed an online order through the…

Placed an online order through the mobile app for a sausage egg McMuffin at 10:51 am and ordered a Carmel frappe used 4500 points that were added to mobile order. Total was 5.41 and immediately billed to card in file. Arrived at 11:01 to pick up order and was told it would not be able to be completed because it was past breakfast time. I then asked for order to be cancelled. I drove back around and requested a receipt but was told they could not give me a receipt. I went home and called the store and asked to speak to the manager. The person who answered claimed to be a manager and said her name was Kimberly. She was a bit condescending, did not validate my issue and adamantly continued to state it was policy of McDonalds. She indicated she could not fulfill the order because I arrived after breakfast was being served, she claimed order is not even started until customer arrives to the store. I am very familiar with the fast food industry. Anyway all of it was completed online before end of breakfast time and payment was handled as well as my code given that I wanted to use
2) they refused to cancel order indicating they were not able to cancel on their end thats false! They claimed I could cancel and it would be refunded within 15 minutes. I cx it says 1-7 business days! Totally inappropriate 3) they failed to provide receipt upon request. You should always be fulfilling the order if it comes in before end of that time especially if still advertising it and if youre not going to say no longer accepting orders for breakfast! Totally disappointed!

If I can give zero starts I would.

If I can give zero starts I would.

Ordered breakfast and got completely the wrong order (obviously someone elses).

Have now tried to get this rectified and NONE of the complaint or reporting systems are able to deal with my request. I even went to the store and again, no hope of getting it sorted.

Never ever use the McDonalds App... it'll take your money and you won't get what you paid for!!!!

Never get the order right

Never get the order right, they always mess up in some kind of way.
Tonight I ordered and was charged for a double quater pounder to get home and find only 1 patty in my burger.
I've ordered chicken before and had less pieces. It's like they can't count, but you never over count, its always less... Can't be a coincidence!

Started off all ok food was fast and hot however I was fast put off the food when a member of staff who I will ad was on there break stood up and thought I was ok to put his hand down the back of his trousers scratch his arse then stiff his hand. Then again do the same 5 minutes later and looking at his finger nails.

Spoken to the manager and he did nothing! I even said to tell him go wash his hands before he comes back on to shift.

Then to finish it off said member of staff finished his food picked up his serviettes and placed them back in the dispenser

Again went and spoke to manager and explained telling him to go remove the serviettes
Again did nothing so took it upon
Myself to go remove them.
