McDonald's Greerton — Restaurant in North Island

McDonald’s Greerton – the eighth wonder of the fast-food world.

If you’re after consistency, this is the place: you’ll consistently never know what you’re going to get. Order a Big Mac? You might get a salad sandwich with half the lettuce missing. Ask for nuggets? You’ll get the sauce, but the nuggets will have been placed in witness protection. Coffee? Hot enough to strip paint one day, lukewarm puddle the next. It’s a culinary lottery and everyone’s a loser—but in a fun way.

The drive-thru is its own theme park ride: sometimes a 30-minute endurance test, sometimes so quick you don’t have time to check if they remembered your fries (spoiler: they didn’t). Pro tip: always check your bag before you leave or you’ll discover at home that your Happy Meal has everything except happiness.

Inside, the place is cozy—and by cozy I mean roughly the size of a single-car garage. You’ll be shoulder-to-shoulder with strangers, all waiting for their lukewarm hash browns, but hey, nothing brings Kiwis together like collective despair. Cleanliness? The tables sparkle (if you squint)

Credit where it’s due: the staff are either absolute angels who will guard your lost wallet with their lives, or grumpy goblins who’d sooner yeet your order into the carpark than smile. You never know which shift you’ll get. There’s also apparently an Amazonian-sized staff member who could double as security, so at least you’ll feel safe while eating your cold chips.

Parking? Bring a prayer book. Spaces are scarcer than ice creams on a day when the soft-serve machine has, once again, “mysteriously broken.”

Verdict: McDonald’s Greerton is like dating—sometimes hot, sometimes cold, usually confusing, occasionally disappointing, but you’ll keep coming back because deep down, you’re addicted to the chaos.

Would I recommend? Absolutely. It’s a...

Went through drive thru last night with my special needs niece to get her some food and my parents. We were told to wait parking lot for our meal. We waited a while for our food and seen from outside that they were serving people and preparing orders for uber drivers and 3 cars that got their order and not have our meal ready yet. So I walked in and waited inside and overheard either the manager say to the young guy “ Well its not my fault if they yell at you” because we were waiting long for our order and we were the only car in the waiting parking lot, he then said he didn't care with a smirk on his face and not knowing that I was the driver of the vehicle in the parking lot . So I said to the young guy “ is that for (saying my number plate) and he looked surprised and then I grabbed my food and said “why did it take so long”. if my special needs niece & parents weren't hungry I would have thrown the food back at this employer and asked for my money back. I was furious and the drinks werent even filled to the top they...

When in and purchased a share box this evening, four burgers, four chips and four drinks. I understand it was busier than usual for them but The Bleach Blonde younger male working this evening could have given us a cup holder. We were given two bags and the four drinks loose. I stopped and asked three times as well as my partner asking for a cup holder. This male in a grey shirt ignored both my partner and myself. (even the guys out in the drive thru heard me) then after ignoring us with his back turned he turns back around with another order and just says "can I get you something else?" I have two hands how am I supposed to carry the four drinks to the car and home safely without a cup holder? He was quite rude and I'm disappointed that this was tonight's service. Normally the service is good as I go there...
