McDonald’s

Look, just order 40 nuggets and 2 cheeseburgers and a soda and a mcflurry and an apple pie and large fries and get every sauce they have and then drive to the boys house and watch Monday Night Raw and whatever you do DO NOT LEAVE THE COUCH

Went here before meeting some friends at Free Gold Watch (pinball arcade) across the street. Saturday afternoon lots of people here with a long line to order.
Security guard lets you into bathroom with receipt. He does a good job keeping order.
Restaurant is beautiful becase of all the windows and how it overlooks the park.
Lots of tourists and people coming in to use the bathroom. The security guard has his work cut out for him… but he stays strong and does his job well refusing bribes from patrons to get in without receipts

Hands down the worst McDonalds experience I’ve had.
Waited over 30 minutes for a relatively simple order, and when it finally did come out, it was completely wrong. Other customers I saw were waiting 10 plus minutes for just a coffee.
I wouldn’t visit this place again even if the food was being handed out for free.

Saw the Golden Arches and breathed a sigh of relief, while on a run if you need an emergency bathroom break, the Golden Arches are a god send. Except in the city, and this location. Security guard felt like he had to:
1. Tell me I had avoided him on purpose to try and use the bathroom. (Who expects a security guard at a fast food joint?)
2. Use his finger and carefully point out every word on the sign explaining its for customers only.
3. Stare longingly at the broken public toilet across the street surrounded by 5 ho else’s guys prying on the door.
While your guts are about to explode this is less than wonderful. The counter staff were very pleasant, as I bought a 70cent cookie so I could be a customer, but this guys rudeness was way more than required. Oh, the bathroom, I’m guessing was cleaner than the public one across the street… but not by much.

You MUST buy something if you’re just dropping in for the bathroom. There is security checking receipts before they unlock the bathroom.

I would’ve given it 1 star if not for the parking lot and the fast service.
Convenience: ⁴⁄₅
Quality: ¹⁄₅ — Food quality varies a lot
Location: ¹⁄₅ — Lots of dirty people/​homeless/​hippies/​whatever
Bathroom: ¹⁄₅ — So dirty and looks like they don’t clean it
Customer Service: ²⁄₅ Fast service, but they will NOT HELP you if you have problems. They always assume the worst in you and do nothing.
Don’t go here if you have a choice. Also, your experience may vary a lot depending on whose working the counter.

This is one of the worst McDonald’s I have been to! The wait time for my meal was ridiculous, 20 minutes because they were messing up on orders. The woman at the front is difficult to understand with her accent and didn’t seem to understand what I wanted to order. Another woman had to come and help her for a few orders.
Also, they left this poor guys meal waiting for 10 minutes.

I love McDonald’s. On the corner of haight so quite a few hippies hanging out. Great service but very dirty

Parking: A+, lots of parking in their lot
Drive thru: 404 not found
Clientele: Not sure if bum, hippie, or drug addict…
Service: Pretty fast
Cleanliness: NOPE
Soda machine: not self serve
Basically, this mcdonalds is bad because of the clientele and the neighborhood that it’s in, but if you’re driving by and need a quick bite, just get in and get out asap.

3.5 Stars.
San Francisco shuts down early. If you need late night drunk eats in the Sunset, Richmond, Pac Heights districts… the pickings be slim to none.
Well there is always Mickey D’s in the Haight. This place has always been a tad, how should I say, …Sketch?
Still is… but the folks here are really great. They have some nice new items on the menu. The grilled chicken with bacon on a pretzel bun (I think that was what it was) was actually pretty good for fast food.
Throw in a humongous diabetic coma inducing sprite a large pile of fries… and I was a happy boy.

I usually don’t write reviews for fast-​food restaurants especially McDonald’s, but I will today, for fun, and because I came back here again yesterday.
I have came here a couple of times in highschool after going to Kezar Stadium since it is a block away. I haven’t been back and would never go out of my way to go to this McDonald’s. Why? You may ask. because the regulars who come here are home-​less who «live» nearby. It is always packed with homeless, never have a pleasant smell, and someone is always trying to ask you for change. Scaryyyyyyyy
My friends and I stumbled across this McDonald’s on the way to Golden Gate Park since we needed a snack and it was across the street. We were actually «impressed» with the service. Our order came out in no more than two minutes on a busy Sunday afternoon. We went to the counter and asked for ice and water several times, and the burgers that my friend ordered were really pretty. It looked like a perfect burger. No creases on the bun and the cheese and everything was so proportional. Wish i got a picture of it. =p

This location doesn’t have a soda machine in the dining area. So I’m thinking. No refills!
As for the food and service, what can I tell you? It’s a McDonald’s. Pretty much the same everywhere.
Located directly across from the park, where alot of homeless people camp. My 15 yr. old son noticed all the homeless and said, «when he gets a job, he wants to come back and buy $ 100 worth of burgers to hand out at the park.» Wow! That was a proud moment for me as a parent. I must be doing something right with my son.

This is a super sketchy Mcdonalds, I suggest that you only come here when its absolutely necessary for you to get some munchies on the way to the park or when you have extreme cottonmouth and need to rehydrate, other than that; never come here. This place always smells like piss, always has tons of street people loitering around, and is almost always packed way past maximum capacity, can you say fire hazard? If you decide to come here, I pity you, just don’t be surprised when your food is stale and your order is incorrect (Twice I’ve ordered Big Macs and instead received quarter pounders or chicken sandwiches).

Never eaten here and never would. Always quite a scene out front though. I feel like you could purchase drugs, among other illegal products and services, all within the perimeters of this restaurant.

FOURTH TIME! Not at this particular McDiarrhoea, but second time at this location (fourth in total, others were at 16/​Bryant, and in Riverside, in So-​Cal).
My ‘Nome de plume’ ‘McDiarrhoea’ that I have given them is due to just that! All four times I have chanced McDonalds, I got sick! The forth time was only this past month December 2014. I ordered their Big Mac meal, and three fourths of the way through, I got stomach ache, painful serious intestinal cramps, and made a mad dash for their loo.
It was locked (presumably occupied) and as I REALLY had to go –very badly — Well, turns out that the battle with me was lost in embarrassing defeat! As the next moment I puked my guts out, followed almost immediately by sustaining a rather virulent accident in my jeans that spilled out onto their floor and made a public embarrassment like never before! (Not to mention the stench)!
Now, of course, right on queue, as from Hollywood film, that I had this emergency release, whoever was in there (sleeping?) finally came out and freed the bathroom up. I cautioned him to watch out as not to slip and sustain a fall right on my mess! (This has been notorious hangout for homeless population, and it has from what I know, not been uncommon for homeless to fall asleep in this particular loo of McDonalds at Haight and Stanyan Streets).
I ran in, and finished my business and tried under these circumstances to clean myself up best I could, came out and quickly left the premises. I was one totally ‘embarrassed-​out’ dude!
Well, all I can say is that this corporation had brought this upon themselves due to cutting corners on quality and even food safety! (This accounts for the one star here, as getting sick off this one branch of McDonalds has now happened twice here at this location in the Haight
I went to ER at Dignity Health (St Marys) a few streets away as to get checked out. Diagnosis? Mild to moderate case of food poisoning. I wound up sick for at least a week thereafter! I was able to get back home, but this makes number four with me and my visits to McDiarrhoea. NEVER AGAIN!
PLEASE, I highly recommend that you avoid McDonalds at all costs! Just ain’t worth it! (Especially this one at Haight and Stanyan!)

This Restaurant is Dodgy, and Nasty & I refuse to eat here. I walked in and walked out. San Francisco Mc Donalds are disgusting and the shop on Haight looks outdated dirty and unappealing with all sorts of dodgy homeless people selling drugs and congregating around it. The bathrooms are filthy as well and the people that work here do not present themselves well or look sanitary.
I wouldnt even order chips much less there burgers. I came in to use the bathroom and whilst I thought about ordering something to drink as well as some chips (which were quite pricey to be honest) I decided to just leave and spend my money elsewhere.
The prices here aren’t even really about Value. There $£ Menu is practically non-​existant and even their Value Meals are all around £$ 8
The car park is very large and you can steal a parking space and park all day whilst shopping in the Haight which is the only Plus!

Do you know the expression, «avoid like the plague?” — -do it.

Syringes, homeless trust fund kids and burgers!
If you do go here please watch out for used needles. I have seen more than one over the years here. Try not to step on the trust fund hippies while walking in. These are their steps so try not to piss them off.
Decades ago the owners realized there was nothing they could do so don’t be mad.
The food quality is the same as any other McDonald’s so don’t worry about that but just please watch your back.

This was a pretty odd mcdonalds experience for me. Being at the confluence of Golden Gate Park and Haight Ashbury it attracts a lot of homeless that mill about on the steps to the entrance and inside as well. Not necessarily scary but not really someplace I’d want to linger either.
The staff seemed kinda odd to me as well as I had to repeat my order a number of times. But hey I’m kinda soft spoken so it may have been me. Food was standard mcdonalds food, nothing really noteworthy there.
Fun fact: This mcdonalds got rid of the dollar menu and raised the prices in an effort to make it less affordable for the homeless.

My sister was craving Mcdonalds. So we went here.
I really had to go to the bathroom, but surprise! they don’t have one. They have porta potty and you know what… they aren’t that bad. Probably because I used one during the day, I think I would have been scared and grossed out at night.
Oh…but I definitely did not sit not sit on the toilet. I squatted.
