I really enjoy McDonald’s food, but lately I’ve been disappointed with the quality and service at this location. More than once, I’ve gotten expired items — like creamers that plop into my iced coffee already spoiled. I’ve also received moldy burger buns and fries that were soggy, as if they’d been sitting too long. It’s frustrating because I usually look forward to my meals here. On top of that, when I visited recently, several of us at the counter were ignored for about 10 minutes. Staff kept making eye contact but continued walking past, focusing only on the drive-thru. Once someone was finally assigned to the counter, we were served, but the wait and lack of attention didn’t leave a good impression. I do want to acknowledge the manager, though — she was kind, professional, and very apologetic when I raised my concerns about the expired creamer. I really appreciated how she handled it, but overall I’m disappointed with the consistency and quality of the food here.

I've travelled to a lot of Mcdonalds all over Canada as I go on road trips every couple months. This McDonalds was ok. I came in with 2 other friends and we all ordered breakfast separately. I ordered first and the cashier was laughing and joking with their colleague about the night they had before while I stood there waiting for 2 minutes until the lady said next, after ordering the cashier gave me the wrong change and I had to go back and get the money that was missing. The next order the breakfast meal was wrong, they made the wrong sandwich. And the 3rd order the coffee was supposed to be made with sweetener because they are diabetic but they made it with sugar. The bathroom floors you can literally skate on when you go in.... it's like stepping on a greasy floor. My overall experience was not so great but I guess every store is managed differently. Plus side is the store is wheelchair friendly and has a good drive through.

Got take out from the east River road McDonald's asked for large fries with our meals and got medium fries in the large sized container. This is not the first time we had issues with our orders at this restaurant. Last time before this time we went, we were missing two medium fries, went back told them and they checked and only gave us one extra medium fries instead of the other two we paid for. Didn't find out til we opened it at home. Save your money or go to a&w, Wendy's, or burger king or somewhere else. This place doesn't like to give you everything you pay for.

My boyfriend and I stopped at the New Glasgow McDonald’s on our way back to Cape Breton from Halifax. Needless to say we were both very disappointed with our food and overall experience. We went inside to order takeout and the first thing I noticed was a swarm of flies hanging out behind the front counter and tons of soda and coffee cups on top of the garbage bins. It was obvious they haven’t taken the time to clean their lobby in a while. The service was pretty slow as it seemed like they only had one or two cashiers tending to the front counter, but I understand it’s not their fault if they have understaffed and don’t have other coworkers to assist them.

I ordered a McDouble value meal and I didn’t receive a straw in my bag. I understand that they provide the cup to pour my own drink, but every other McDonald’s I have been to has always provided a straw in my takeout bag. The McDouble itself tasted fine, but my fries were very soggy and cold. I also ordered one of the new S’mores McFlurries, and I’m not exactly sure the proper method of making one, but all of the ingredients were just dumped on top of the ice cream instead of mixed in. I don’t regularly get McFlurries at McDonalds, but I never had one where they didn’t mix the ingredients with the ice cream. My boyfriend ordered a Big Mac, and while he asked for light lettuce, it appeared as if they added extra sauce to compensate for less lettuce. There was so much sauce on his burger that it was sliding apart and wouldn’t stay together.

We ate in the car and after finishing our meals, my boyfriend went to the outside garbage can to throw away our trash. He said that the garbage can was so full that there was tons of garbage stacked on top and around the garbage bin. They probably haven’t changed the outside garbage in at least a few days, maybe even a week.

If possible, I would recommend going to any other McDonalds, and we will not be stopping at this McDonalds anymore on our trips to Halifax or anywhere else on the mainland. The McDonalds locations in Cape Breton are much better and more cleanly than this McDonalds, and I don’t need to worry whether there are...

I'll start off by saying I usually like this McDonald's location. But it had been a late supper for myself and my mother as we had just finished visiting my father at the hospital across the road.

We used the kiosk to order and while waiting for our meal and also while ordering at the kiosk we could hear a supervisor screaming and yelling at her employees regarding breaks and how fast they were moving and just telling everyone to basically shut up you'll get your break when it slows down and then it became quiet. If they seemed to slack off any in her eyes, she would yell at them again.

I have never ever ever in my many years of going to this location had to listen to someone treat the employees like this. To top this all off, are fries were cold and it just pretty much ruined the rest of our evening.

The plus side is when I filled out the survey on the receipt, that an email was sent to that location and the manager of that store got in touch with me and apologized for what we had to go through and said that they had spoke to that specific shift manager regarding the situation.

I'm hoping the next time that we go to this location that it is much...

Not the place to go for Fast Food. We ordered and waited half hour before we decided to get our money back and go somewhere else!!! You def don’t want to dine in. It’s disgusting!!! Update: Decided to give it another try. When we arrive it was busy. But nothing crazy. A few people dining in. Drive thru was busy. We put our order in and I looked for a spot to sit. Not one clean table with only a few tables occupied. I let the manager know. All he said was. “Sorry, we’re really busy” we waiting for nearly 20 minutes and in that time he didn’t send anyone out to clean the tables. The garbage was overflowing So ofcourse we weren’t able to stay. When we got our order. It was only half of the order. I told the manager. He apologized and gave me another bag. That bag wasn’t out order either. I took the burger out to see it was the same burger I ordered. But not mine. Missing toppings. After I touched that burger and told the manager again this was wrong, he put the Big Mac back with the other orders...
