    I have been going to McDonald’s for as long as I’ve been around.. Over time it has been getting too pricey with what they have to offer now. Menus are great. It’s just the quality has been declining. They also need to bring back the promotional games and prizes.

    I want to share my experience at the location on 4514 Telegraph Ave, Oakland, California. The employees there have been exceptionally rude and unprofessional during my visits. I have been there several times, and each experience has been disappointing. Frankly, I am losing my patience with the staff. During my last visit, I placed two separate orders: a $6.00 meal deal and a soft ice cream using my reward points, which were about to expire.

    When I approached the drive-thru order area, I explained my situation and provided my order number, 1604. The employee asked for my order number three more times, and her attitude was far from friendly. After the last request, she instructed me to drive to the second window. After a wait of about 20 minutes, I reached the window. The lady there was unfriendly and began to hand me someone else's order. I pointed out that it wasn't mine. In the background, I heard a man trying to give my order, 1604, to a woman at the pickup counter. I informed the employee that he had my order, but she asked me again for my order number, spoke to him in Spanish, and reiterated her request. When I raised my voice to repeat my order number, she seemed even more annoyed and slammed the window shut.

    Eventually, the man passed my order to her. She snatched it from him and shoved it at me with a bad attitude. I then inquired about my second order for the soft ice cream. She claimed she had it but asked for the order number; however, only the second order appeared, not the rewards order on my phone. She then stated she would get a manager. A young ** man approached the window and introduced himself as the manager. I explained my situation to him, but he simply walked away without acknowledging me.

    A few minutes later, the actual manager came to the window, yelling that they didn't have my order and that I was holding up the line. I asked if I should come around to resolve this, and he said the dining room was closed, indicating he did not want to address my concerns. His dismissive attitude was concerning; it is his job to address customer issues, which he did not do, and he wanted me to go away. I waited my turn just like everyone else. As a Senior Director for a major airline, I find this treatment unacceptable. If this is how your management treats customers, it raises serious concerns. I have many dining options available, and given your financial situation and loss of customers due to high prices, this is something I need to consider.

    Honestly, it's not worth my time to deal with employees who are rude and inconsiderate and who don't care about their jobs or their customers. I will certainly redirect my money to a business that values the product they deliver. I'm going to make sure I share this experience with as many people as possible, through different websites, friends and family. The store manager and several employees need additional customer service training but as I believe nothing will be done and this will continue. What is happening, many customers will not voice their concerns; they will simply walk away never to return.

    I felt you needed to know my frustration and what's going on with this franchise store; and how they are representing your produce and brand, you should be concerned. Additionally, please do not send me the generic response you provide to all customers who complain, as it feels impersonal and indicates a lack of concern for my issues. Please address the concerns directly.

    Every morning I stop at the McDonald's on Wesley Dr.. Not sure why the manager can't take a minute to check the order. Last week I received another person's order. Today again and at least once a week something I ordered gets missed. Yes I should take the time to check my order. LOL wouldn't matter. The manager was at the window. She opens the window and closes it so fast, you can't say anything. Also she need to grow a personality. Very disrespectful, She has been there for a long time. She should not have any access to customers. Also once again I paid for food I did not get. I will take part blame. But how hard is it to put 2 egg muffins and a hash brown in a bag and kindly hand it to the customer. It's not rocket science.

    On 12/02/2025 I went through the drive thru and ordered a 6 piece chicken nugget Happy Meal, when I go to the window, the staff asked me what I ordered and I told her. She asked me to pull up to parking slot 3. I sat there for 15 minutes. During that time I saw 3 people behind me receive their orders, and 2 receive their orders through the window. I went inside and asked for my receipt and money back. The wait would not have bothered me except for the people behind me receiving their order before me. The store number is 5331. I will never shop at this location ever again.

    Seems like every time I patronize a McDonald’s, there is something wrong. Either my order is made wrong, food is missing, napkins are missing or the sandwich is made like a 2-yr old put it together! Yesterday, while on vacation in Beckley WV (Hylton Rd), I ordered a fish sandwich. This is how I received it. A few weeks ago, I purchased a double cheeseburger in Vermillion, OH and it was swimming in grease with far too much ketchup, sliding around between the buns and of course, no napkins given! Do better McDonald’s or I am done for good! Wendy’s at least can make a palatable sandwich.

    At a McDonald's store located at 343 Cochituate Rd. Framingham, MA 01701 I used a kiosk to place an order for TWO egg biscuit breakfast sandwiches. My receipt clearly confirmed my order details. The receipt no. was 628. I then drive another eight to ten minutes to get a coffee at a Dunkin location near my office. When I got to my office I opened the wrapping on both sandwiches and found that I received two egg mcmuffins. These have English muffins which I avoid due to gluten issues. That is why I ordered biscuits. Now I have to drive all the way back to this McDonald's to get a refund or my $ back. I know that THEY will not be very apologetic as this sort of issue has happened to me before at this location. The current ownership is not good.

Your person at window tried charging me $6.04, the meal should have been $5.30 with tax. I ask the lady to check the price and she said it's $6.04. Bullshit. Now you guys are adding upcharges on Tax.

    Location 1505 South Semoran Blvd Orlando Fl. 32807 Time 9.45 am Nov 13 2025. I have been going to this location for more than 26 years I have had a few complaints, but nothing like the extreme bad experience I had today with this One manager that has made my coming there when she is there so miserable that I have to avoid going there when she is there. This Manager today said to everyone who could hear her That I am not welcome there when she is there. I should pick another location, she, said out loud that if I continue to show up when I am there, she will have Me trespassed.

    This threat is one I did not deserve I was only making a phone order and said nothing. No other Manager has a problem with me nor any Employees. I do not know her name, but her description is a short ** female with long braided hair and glasses. She has made it clear more than once she does not want me coming there. I think upper Management should consider transferring her since I have been a good customer for 26 years.

    My story is likely the same as many on this list. I began eating at McDonalds as a kid in the 60's and watched them grow across the country. I have also had the pleasure of traveling the world and have eaten at the restaurants in London, Hong Kong, South China and even in Japan. The last few years I have gotten to the point if it was the only place open at night i would just go hungry. The drive thru is called a drive thru for a reason, over and over I am made to park and if I push back I get told to leave. If I am in the drive through its because I don't want to park. Also the food is getting to the point is nearly no longer eatable, I was a consistent customer that really enjoyed the two cheeseburger meal. My last go around they could not even get that right.

    I got one cheese burger and a McNuggets box with a beef patty in it, and this was after I was told to park and then watched as the guy coming out of the store gave food to not only me but the three cars behind me that were made to park also, so for their efficiency with zero care of my time I had to wait for everyone's meal to be made. Your entire company was founded on generational customers, I would not even consider taking my grandkids to this place anymore, we will spend our time and money on a retailer that actually cares about its customers. Good riddance to you and your garbage food and terrible service.

    No one was doing any work at the front counter and the person there with her hands in her pocket wasn’t helping my water request. I waited for my order at a table from my mobile order. When the girl finally came, she brought no stirrers for my coffee. When asked about it, she walked away, ignoring my request. I am a senior and have to calculate my steps because I have pain, so when I have to go back to the front for a stirrer, I have to endure pain and for that pain, I took all the stirrers/straws so she could make that trip she was supposed to make.

    Then, suddenly, the invisible general manager came out of the back screaming at me, saying I could go somewhere else but nothing to the lazy employee she has. So she bans ME over stirrers that I didn’t receive. This McDonald’s is the closest to my house and the normal workers there know how to give good service to the restaurant clients. I don’t get around well, so this is the most direct bus route. I think a telephone number to the owners should be placed at this location to monitor the tackiness of some of their upper management.

She told me I should have brought sandwich back, I'm not in that area often. Life happens. Sad representation for management. Human error ok but take care of your customer.

    Still awaiting a Deliveroo / McDonald's credit from when drink completely spilled and nothing left. Tonight the server 'forgot' to put in any of the sauces - for the countless time - it now must be customer policy to save money this way... Since they sent the poor delivery man to Battle then to me (in completely opposite directions, both from the shop and to me from the first delivery) my food didn't arrive for two hours and it was all stone cold. When I raised it with customer service in chat, they offered a measly 'standard 25 per cent refund' and no other compensation. Furious. No wonder they're such a multimillion / billon dollar company, it's easy to see why now. Do NOT order from McDonalds, especially in Hastings.
