McDonald's — Restaurant in Bayou Vista

I actually like McDonald's. I'm older now, but the filet-a-fish is a favorite on Fridays since we don't eat meat (and not just during Lent) and I do like the double cheeseburger or chicken sandwich from the value menu. You get a second one for just $1 more if you use the app. Great for traveling. Just sign in look a little ways up the road and place your order when you're about five minutes from the store. My wife usually jumps out to use the restroom and if we both need to go, we'll, I park it and jump out too. Then we run thru the Drive Thru and we're back on the road in five or six minutes. Nope, not a big believer in stopping too long. Just get the miles behind you and stop when you got to. The fries are some of the best you can get and the Big Mac is my absolute favorite, though I try not to eat too many of either of thise items since I DO have type 2 diabetes. They also have the absolute best drink selection. I prefer Diet Dr. Pepper or sometimes that diet lemonade and they usually have both. Some places have like one choice for no sugar drinks. When you hit a McDonald's with one of those fancy drink machines, you have a gazillion different flavors you can...

Hated it is too strong, but they were operating under shady practices. Arrived after ordering on the app. Waited almost 20 minutes at the window when the worker came to give me my order. Only, it was the wrong order, by almost 3 times the amount of food. I told the employee what I'd ordered and after another long wait, it was brought to me. The employee told me they couldn't see my order because the management required they clear the orders from the screen so that their times looked good. My husband was a district GM for a fast food change, and he was quick to point out how much of a no-no that was. The employee was very apologetic for our wait, and very friendly. When we got to our hotel room and opened the bags and it was still the wrong order--we received our order and at least one other persons order, since there were 7 items in the bag we...

⭐⭐ 2 out of 5 stars I don’t eat fast food often, but while on the road for a family get-together, we stopped here out of convenience. I grabbed a couple sandwiches through a deal on the app. Overall, the food quality was just okay.

While eating, I looked up how McDonald’s meat ranks compared to other fast food chains — and seeing it rated around 4.5 out of 10 made sense. I definitely felt it afterward. Might be 100% beef, but I walked away feeling sluggish and just… out of it.

If you’re someone who doesn’t usually eat fast food, you’ll probably notice the difference too. Sometimes convenience just isn’t worth how it leaves...
