Better than MC Donald S, I suppose. They seem to continue to improve, or at least attempt to improve, on each others mundane, bland and only slightly altered new food products, they should seriously join forces, merge their two company's and call it Hungry MC, add the cafe to all former HJs, then add a 3rd section.. A simple restaurant with licenses to sell alcohol and provide gambling machines such as 10 pokies machines at every store.. And obviously have the menu include both former businesses menu available, except the copies can survey what the collective society prefers and why, they could then possibly improve the two boring burgers into one. For example, play around with MCs big Mac sauce that somehow still remains a secret. Surely chefs of this day and age could synthesize something, so close to tasting like MCs big Mac sauce, re brand it, then start mass producing it to sell in bulk to all the supermarkets in the world. Even maccas by them selves would benefit from that. It's hardly going to reduce their customer base by much.
Most of us only go there if we are out and about and simply want the fastest and cheapest food service, they also far out weigh the amount of stores that HJ's has, so for them to keep up in their stubborn war till one falls behind..
Well they have around 10 years or so before I create my own Hungry MC, they will slowly begin to lose all business and will be forced to sell their company's ownership to all that juicy data of their customer base, so probably every human alive that day I hire my only idol, the Illist MC, Slim Shady, to perform my grand opening of "Hungry MCs" or "MC King" (most likely the latter, as hungry jacks is called burger king everywhere except...
Read moreOur worst take-away experience to date. We were leaving the shops and had an unsettled baby in the car so thought we would quickly grab some breakfast on the way through. We ordered and then qued behind two cars. 15 minutes later we were still sitting there, no cars having moved. Baby was crying and we couldn't get out as we were trapped behind two cars. The car in front of us were at the window and were served their food but the car in front of them was the hold up. Instead of directing the front car to continue on and wait in a bay (as they would and often do at McDonalds), they just let the entire que of cars sit and wait for upwards of 15 minutes. When we finally made it to the window, the young man made no apology, just saying $10.30 or whatever the total was. We explained our frustration and asked what was going on to be told unconvincingly 'sorry about the wait'. I asked why they didn't move the first car on to keep the flow of traffic which he completely ignored, saying loudly 'have a nice day' and handing us our 'food'. Both of our wraps were disappointing to say the least. Woeful, even. I got the BLT which was cold, barely any filling and with only one small slice of tomato at the bottom and my partner had what could only be described as a 'bacon and egg pancake' which was squashed, cold and had barely any filling. After reading the other reviews it is apparent this is the 'norm' for this franchise. We don't expect much from takeaway food but we do expect it to be sufficient amount for an adult to eat and for service to be prompt. So very...
Read moreHalf star if that was possible to give. Weather miserable, busy working day and I suddenly felt my hunger reached a dangerous level. Saw Hungry Jack's Burgers Arana Hills on the side and I had 11 spare minutes, so I parked the car and grabbed a $10 note and went inside. I could not afford any of the burgers! I asked for a $6.10 nuggets. The girl typed in and said "$6.55". I said "really! Look at the sign, it is said $6.10" She turned her head and look at the bright sign and mumbled something I could not understand then turned back and asked me "So do you still want this?" By then, my hunger and time left me no choice to go anywhere else so I paid for it and waited patiently on the side. Both the customer before me and the customer purchased after me were served and I felt I might be falling on the floor in any minute if I don't eat something. But there was no sign they were going to call any more numbers. So I approached the counter and presented my ticket. The young man looked supprised that there was still orders that had not been served, so he went back and checked the monitor. I finally got my six nuggets and the size was so pitiful! First, I thought it was illegal to advertise one price and charge a higher one?! Second, they were not even busy and they would miss an order while I was standing there waiting in front of their eyes! And I was late for my next appt. I will never make myself the "only" unlucky customer of Hungry...
