McDonald’s

The Food is okay. But they have terrible customer service. I went in there a couple months ago after an appointment in the morning with my mom and we played and everything the cashier was okay. but then after we got our food we check the bags and then my mom asks for ketchup. then one lady behind the counter doing I don’t even know what said in a sarcastic mocking voice «oohh the lady needs ketchup» and all the lady’s in there laughed I honestly felt like jumping over the counter and punching the shit out of her but I was taught better so I just gave her a dirty look at the end the bitch didn’t gives us ketchup the lady that was our cashier gave us some nicely.
The place is a nice old building though food is okay but it is kinda dirty and the bathrooms are too.

Horrible coffee, very watery this was not an arabica bean blend, this coffee tasted like the old blend they used a few years ago

4 stars because the cashier was very nice and because this particular McDonald’s is an original building from the 70’s. Awesome for that!
But, the only reason I am even here is because I’m at the AC Transit bus Center a few yards away and my bus won’t arrive for another 15 min. so I figure I can go to McD and get a coffee in the meantime. Ended up with a McCafe Caramel Mocha. Was very good, and only $ 2.89 for a medium.
I’d do it again if I’m waiting for a bus, but, have to agree with many other reviewers that this place draws ghetto types. Someone came in to order something with a boom box going full blast thinking that is ok.

10:49AM — Arrived
To whomever is currently driving the silver 7-​series BMW ahead of me, GO INSIDE THE STORE IF YOU HAVE 30 QUESTIONS TO ASK THE DRIVE-​THRU EMPLOYEE.
11:58AM — Waiting.
We got in line at 10:49am and it is now 11:02am, 2 minutes after McDonalds stops serving breakfast on Saturday mornings.
*detangles hair*
11:05AM — Still waiting.
All I wanted was one of those 150 calorie oil-​drenched trans fat-​filled patties you guys call a hash brown and a milk for my daughter.
The ONLY draw to McDonalds for me is the promise of a quick experience that prevents me from needing to take my toddler out of her car seat since getting her IN the car seat is always a harrowing one. and the fact that you sell apple slices, mandarin oranges, and regular low fat milk for my daughter’s snacking needs when we are on the go and her travel cup filled with organic whole milk meets an unfortunate end (which happens more often than I’d prefer).
So… I’m finally at the first window paying for my order. That car ahead of us interrupted my order taking 4x, btw.
11:12AM — Food secured, mission complete.
TOTAL TIME INVESTED: 23 minutes
1* for the food
4* for their patience and composure when dealing with difficult customers
BONUS: Located next to a police station.

About 6 years ago I witnessed an employee quit on their first day! He literally said «fuck this!», threw off his hat and ran out LMAO
You know that empty and painful feeling in your stomach you get when you’re hella hungry? And you’re irritated and just pissed off cuz you need food in your stomach? Well if that ever happens to you I would go to Taco Bell or Subway around the corner cuz this place isn’t worth it.
The employees are miserable and rude but that’s expected because who would be happy about working at McDonalds? What sucks is how sloppy they make your food. I’ve found an onion in my McGriddle and recieved a regular coffee instead of a latte. My chicken wrap was cold as hell I only took three bites before I threw it away Smh

When I was young my mother would take me out for ten cent hamburgers on sunday after church. When I had children of my own I relocated to another city for a job. Feeling nostalgic I took my kids to the same Mcdonalds for hamburgers. I stood in line. When my turn came to order the counter person kept taking orders from the people behind me as though I did not exist. Mind you I grew up in Oakland and I did’t care that I was the only white person there but here was racism rearing it’s ugly head up at me at Mcdonalds. Now I am 63 and this happened about 30 years ago but I never forgot it and I tell people about this from time to time. Bigotry is bad no matter who it is aimed at. I was born in Highland hospital. Graduated from Fremont High in 1969. I won’t rate that Mcdonalds good or bad because In all honesty I know those people have all moved on years ago. I just hope that the crew that is there now is not bigoted.
Looks like I’m expected to rate so I must rate low even though it may not be fair at this time.

The mens room hand dryer is out of service and there are no towels.

About three years ago my mom and aunt went to this McDonald’s to order breakfast. As they were standing in line, a black couple were arguing about child support and the black girl took the McDonald’s trays and threw them on the floor. People began to leave and my mom and aunt went to another McDonald’s. Don’t ever eat here. The few times I’ve eaten here, I see African American school kids and sometimes they talk loud. I get annoyed by this. These kids don’t know how to act.

This place is not it night staff are great but mornong staff are not professional at all need new workees wirh positive attitudes

20 mins wait in side for my order, never have I waited that long! Asked the MOD to so something and she replied we are not staffed! Completely the worst McDonalds ever! Avoid at all costs!

Yep its ghetto but damn they have the freshest mcnuggets man! They are always full but they are always quick and precise. That is the biggest problem I have with fast food anywhere, but at this particular one they are so good about getting their orders correctly. It is honestly the best one Ive been to. And its consistently fresh and wouldnt mind my arteries clogged at this Mickey D’s! My addiction is the mcspicy chicken sandwich… Do you rembember for a minute they had the mcsalad shakers, yeah that was my thing till they stop having them. But anything with chicken will go in my mouth… This location is next to the police station and they have a designated area for cops… C’mon Oakland PD do your job… dont be chillin at Mcdonalds trynna get free soft serve!

Normally I would give McDonalds one star, but this one is in a police station parking lot and I am addicted to the dollar coffee.

Night Staff Usually Fun & Upbeat!
However Food needs work on its presentation and taste standards.
3 Sloppy Stars.

Was about to give them 4 stars, as the staff was friendly, the food was good, and the coffee was fresh and hot.
Then the last few bites of my McGriddle filled my mouth with the taste of onion.
Too bad, I enjoyed going to this old school McDonalds.

There’s a police station right next to this McDonalds franchise, although there was no donut shoppe to be found… that was the only surprising part, ha ha only joking. To further perpetuate the joke, I told Chong I wondered how many officers begged to transfer to the station built right on Mickey Dee’s parking lot.
Little did I know Chong‘s plan was to simply roll through the drive thru, light up and drive away so the cops would speculate and conclude we were from the E14 track and were just hungry. But that’s the thing, why would I think we’d order after an entire taco bell banquet?! Under things that don’t make sense, proceeding to order a [brand new, limited edition] Rolo McFlurry and a medium hot caramel latte quickly fell in that category.
I don’t know, I think Chong should have told me, or I think I should have listened to my body cues and just stayed quiet refusing to order.
I ordered a hot latte and a Rolo Mcflurry, Instead I got an OREO mcflurry and an ice cold latte. I didn’t complain about the Oreo Mcflurry because I happen to love them anyway but minus 1 star for getting a simple order wrong at such a quiet hour like 2 a.m. especially since I specified «hot» three times!!! ! Minus another star for getting it wrong a second time and giving me an ice cold latte again!!! Minus 3 damn stars for being next to a freaking police station!!! But wait, +5 stars, one, for being open 24 hours, two, for being such an architectural masterpiece and three, for being one of the few places where screwing up my order won’t mean much since I love everything on the menu.

Came here before I started doing Elaine’s hair for a wedding — I can’t work on an empty stomach! It was early and I was cranky. already.
The drive-​thru line was super long so we went inside and ordered. The wait would probably have been the same if we just waited in the drive-​thru line. but it’s cool!
We asked for ketchup and homegirl gave us a shitload for just our two little breakfast sandwiches and hashbrowns. NIIIICE.

SO better to go to the one on 98^th Ave. Reason why is this place is at cop central and you will get pulled over if you even look slightly suspect.
Also asked them to cook my fries soft so not hard as a rock and stale but they say they can’t do that — I mean who ever heard of a food safety issue with undercooked french fires — c’mon really???

Ghetto.
No more needs to be said.

For a while in college I toyed with the idea of being a philosophy major, partly because all the dreamy, long-​haired boys were philosophy majors, and partly because I knew it would help me rationalize otherwise unexcusable shit, like me frequenting the drive-​thru of the McDonald’s at the Eastmont Mall.
*If Tsada goes through the bulletproof drive-​thru and no one is there to see her, did she really consume crap?*
I fucking hate this company and everything it stands for.
Patronizing McDonald’s makes me feel dirty, kind of as if I’d paid a socially conservative Republican to poop on me. That said, they make a killer sweet tea that continues to sell for just a buck. Actually, it’s $ 1.09 with tax, but still, you can’t even get 32 ounces of hemlock for that price nowadays!
One star for that sweet tea, and one star for the nice cashier girl who laughs at me for waiting in a mile-​long drive-​thru line for a one-​dollar cup of sugar water, and who waves me on through to the pick-​up window even when I accidentally drop my nine cents in pennies under my car.
