McDonald’s

I walk in about 620am this morning to grab a little breakfast before work. I am served pretty much immediately. Not too busy. I order a sausage, biscuit and egg meal.
10 minutes later the cashier calls a number and a man picks up the bag and walks out. About 5 minutes later the same man comes in and says the contents are not his. Which means he opened it. The cashier looks inside, takes out the syrup, closes the bag, hands it over to me and says, «here you go!»
I told her, «no, thank you. I would like a fresh one.» Why would she think it’s ok to give me food that left the restaurant with a complete stranger and came back??? REALLY???
Anyway, by the time I got my food it was 6:50am! And I’m not the only one who had to wait an excessively long time for this «fast» food.

This location is always packed, always dirty and always loud. I steer clear of this location after my two experiences here. The lines for the bathroom are out the door and tourists abound here. I suggest finding another location if you really want your McDonald’s fix taken care of.

What you expect from McDonalds.
Upstairs seating area is plus!
Being in midtown, it’s very crowded at lunch.

I guess they don’t know how to count 10 PCs chicken McNuggets, because they only give 8PCs …

I was in here yesterday morning before the AIDS Walk just trying to pick up a to go breakfast. I ordered the steak egg and cheese bagel to go. It was ready in less than 5 minutes. The cheese wasn’t melted when I got the sandwich but by the time I got to Central park to sit down and eat it was melted. The onions on them were nicely grilled.

Doo doo doo doo dooooo… I’m NOT loving it.
McDonalds is what it is. This location is a horror show. Mostly because of the incredibly bad attitudes of the cashiers here. I came in this morning and waited behind a tourist who was ordering food for a small nation. That wasn’t the issue. The girl behind the counter didn’t seem to know how to count the money the tourist gave her. After waiting for about 4 minutes for her to count it, over and over again, I finally just got onto another line. I was able to pay and get my food before she was even finished counting. All the while staring me down as if I did something wrong by daring to wait on her non moving line and then daring to leave for another one. I come in to this place about once per year, and then only when I’m starving; this is why. Too much unnecessary drama. That and a few other health reasons I think we all know.

Yes, tons of customers. Food suck…
The workers looks like they need 2 months training. Not so very welcoming. Some of the workers don’t speak English. YES. NO ENGLIS… Seriously. How can one get help when they can’t be understood…
They place the same Music over and over. it’s like. SERIOUSLY? don’t you get PANDORA or something good? Its almost like bad De JA vu…
The lovely thing about this place is that the inside and upstairs is beautiful…

It’s McDonald so the concept of this is fast service and fast food. I like that they have a charging station upstairs. It’s pretty clean here too and there are plenty of seats upstairs. I come here to buy my happy meal and I’m happy alright. I get my toy, soda, fires, burger and apples.

This is by far the WORSE franchise chain on this avenue. They are so lucky to be in the heart of the theater district & with high foot traffic. The customer service needs retraining to be courtesy & do their job — ultra slow food prep. the décor has gotten so trashy with ripped seats & a homeless shelter on the 2^nd floor seating area.

Super fast service. Alway clean. Three floors, top two for seating. Nice and warm in the winter and cool in the summer. Free wifi and generally pleasant music playing throughout.

Extremely rude and not friendly staff. Please change restaurant if you don’t like being treated like rubbish by the «ladies».

$ 1 Coffee any size. Dig it? Other than that its just like any other McDonalds in New York. Crowded during lunch and typical chaos at the counter. Three floors for your seating pleasure but too bad its usually packed of people including rock center tourists.

This mcd employs racists. They were forcing me to buy something in order to go upstairs even after I explained to him that my family was already upstairs. The guy let other Caucasians and African-​Americans up, but stopped me. Apart from that, the lines were long and the service extremely slow.

Pretty much just come here to get iced coffees and to pee in their bathroom. Okay coffee, pretty clean bathroom. So yeah, that’s it.

Horrible!!! The staff is slow… And they let a homeless crazy man let loose on the 2 nd floor running around touching everything w his dirty ass hands. Wtf!!! That ain’t sanitary!!! And this is supposed to be a food establishment gross

Are you afraid of heights? I hope not, because you might have to climb up to the top floor to find a seat. It’s like climbing the mast on a ship to get to the crow’s nest!
Aside from that, this is a kind of mediocre place. There is no organization so it’s a free for all when you try to order and the space where you order is tiny. I went on a Sunday afternoon to grab a quick sandwich and it took a very long time… the kitchen guys didn’t have their act together.
The seating areas on the 2^nd and 3^rd floor were crowded and dirty. The two garbage cans I saw were overflowing so people had just started placing the trash gently in front of the can.
Food was okay though, so can’t complain. But there are definitely nicer McDonald’s in midtown.

An extremely small McDonald’s when you make your way in, especially on weekdays when it is packed during lunchtime. If I didn’t know any better, it’s actually a safety hazard during lunchtime with the hoards of work people, students and tourists bombarding the few counters that they have. It’s a good thing that there is an upstairs, but the real problem is the 1^st floor where there is a small amount of space to navigate when trying to order and wait for your food.

Usually crowded, but not today. Apparently making people stand in lines is asking too much of Midtown, but rather than the chaos this usually results in, this McDonalds attempts a solution by having it’s employees shout, «CAN I HELP YOU PLEASE STEP DOWN!» while waving their arms like a know-​it-​all in 6^th grade. The result makes you feel like you’re at a carnival or an auction or something. But at least the crowd moves.
They screwed up my order so bad once; I ended up waiting about 15 minutes for an egg and cheese on a biscuit. Sorry McDonalds, you can yell and wave your arms all you want, but don’t come between me and my terrible breakfast!
But I’ll probably still go back, because learning lessons is for suckers.

Got my free drink pretty quickly.

Since it’s McDonalds… not much to say about the food specifically…
After craving for a Mickey Ds burger and frieds… I came to the location to pick up lunch around 1:15 PM and I didn’t have to wait at all. No lines and food came out fast as expected.
Seating available upstairs.
