The night staff here are pretty bad but when you're hungry around midnight this is the only place open that's easily accessible around me. 1 in 5 or so orders are incorrect which is pretty bad with how expensive maccas is now, they have long waiting times (worst case in excess of an hour in drive-through and 40-50 minutes standing wait time when disputing an incorrect order is absurd, but typical waiting time is about 10-30 minutes near midnight).
They're very busy and at this moment they're under renovations. The irony is that the mcdonalds at perth airport was built and ready to go in like only 6 weeks but this restaurant's probably been under renovations for many months at this point so the internal area isn't exactly dine-in friendly.
Considering the food's stale 2/3 times at night (likely from pre-cooking before 23-24 rush hour) and they usually have around 4-5 staff at this time (which is generous compared to what I'm used to when I used to work fast food) they should be able to get the job done relatively quickly. I'm not a fast food god, but I saw one of the workers get my order remade 4 times one night because of miscommunication.
At least the kitchen isn't usually an absolute slippery mess like the fast food restaraunts I worked at in the past
The day staff on the other hand are generally pretty decent. It's about 1/2 times the food's fresh, still not great but at least they do the food presentation better (my burger isnt supposed to have pickles today since it was an angus deluxe but it had like 5 pickles whacked outside of the burger and the onions - also not supposed to be in it and cheese was on the opposite side of the burger). I know you workers use your gloves rather than the "proper" method with tongs, so you ought to improve your aim at least hah
Anyways, don't expect much here, mcdonalds is your last resort restaraunt. If its before about 9pm, most days you're probably better off going to vic park, park at woolies and ordering from a quality restaurant. Some restaurants like osaka sushi stay open until 9pm some days and do...

McDonald's, the global fast-food giant, has long been a staple in the fast-food industry. My experiences with McDonald's have been consistent but with some notable pros and cons.
First, the positives. McDonald's is known for its iconic items like the Big Mac and the Quarter Pounder, which deliver consistent flavors across their numerous locations worldwide. The menu offers a wide variety of options, catering to different tastes and preferences. The efficiency of their drive-thru service is commendable, making it a convenient choice for those on the go. Moreover, their breakfast menu, including the Egg McMuffin, is a morning favorite for many.
However, there are drawbacks to consider. While consistency is a plus, it can also mean a lack of variety for those seeking unique or healthier options. The nutritional value of many menu items is often criticized for being high in calories and sodium. Additionally, the quality and cleanliness of individual locations can vary, affecting the overall experience.
In conclusion, McDonald's remains a reliable choice for quick, familiar, and convenient fast food. It excels in consistency and efficiency, making it a go-to option for many. However, its menu may not cater well to those seeking healthier or more diverse dining choices. Ultimately, McDonald's serves its purpose as a fast-food giant but leaves room for improvement in nutrition and...
Read moreWorst McDonolds have ever been to. Serve was incredibly slow. All tables and chairs were disgusting with food and rubbish on them. Our intentions were to stay at eat, so I grabbed a dirty tea towel off the counter and wiped my own table. However, when food came out, it was in a takeaway bag, so we didn't end up staying and eating. My hubbyorsered a chai tea also, and we watched the staff place it on the counter and then walk away. We checked the other orders and no one ordered any hot drinks. We proceeded to ask if that was the tea. The same server said yes, I called the number. NO HE DIDN'T. We watched him the entire time from making it to putting it on the counter, to walking away and doing something else. Lies. I ordered the new Cheesy Angus Burger. It is meant to have a cheesy, filled patty inside along with a meat patty and salad. It had NO cheesy patty. Huge let down as that was what I wanted. I wonder if they couldn't have been bothered to cook it and add it and figure that by the time I got to eatting my burger, it would be too late. The bacon was hard, and the entire burger was flavourless. There was a giant dollop of spicy sauce in the burger, which was not meant to be there as it's not the spicy version. The whole experience at this McDonolds is a massive disappointment. Since when did McDonalds get so expensive. I thought all dirty bad for you fast...
