Me and wifey went here for a majestic date. What more could you want? It was absolutely fantastic. We shared a McCrispy and it was the perfect size for two. Would def recommend for your next romantic date

I ordered my McDonald’s to be delivered by their Uber drivers which never came! Apparently the Uber driver tried to contact me and ring me in which I had no missed calls from him etc he also said on the app it had been delivered!!!????? I then contacted the Uber company in which they said they can’t do anything and had to contact McDonald’s in which I did and called them so many time but they never answered the phone! I also can’t drive at the minute so me and my family went without dinner I spent around £45.00 and had to then cook a meal for them all. It’s absolutely disgusting that it seemed no one cared!!! I’ll never order from Uber or McDonald’s again!! 😡

Just popped in for breakfast pre Christmas shopping. I have never seen a more unwelcome and uncomfortable setting. Hard seating????? I understand that the economic climate of fast food is changing, but whoever made this decision needs to reconsider their career path! Hard, sharp edged benches terrible!

What does this outlet not understand about a drive through and fast food?!! Wide up for 15 mins, because the incompetent young lad pre taking orders didn’t have a clue, then after ordering and paying, drive to the next window to collect my order only to be asked to park up and wait!!!!! Useless avoid this site at all costs, incompetent!!! With no understanding of the concept of fast food, if this was in the states the franchise would have been closed down!!!

Never get an order correct always missing items, fries have far too much salt on them and when ask for them without staff are extremely rude.Tried them using a delivery service during this pandemic and again complete meals missing and when phone up, again staff are rude and say not their problem and to contact the delivery service we used, well it is there fault as they didn't place meals into the takeaway bag.Gave 1 star as no option for a zero star rating.

McDonald's food is more or less the same as anywhere else. However, groups of teenagers sitting at a large table, talking loudly and swearing continuously when there are young children around is unacceptable. Two of them even commented that they work there. They were clearly not eating or drinking or eating as their table was clear. Management should take more responsibility and at least have a quiet word. Not somewhere I shall be taking my child again

At a good Mc D's you know what you should be getting and at Staple Tye, they deliver it with a smile. The coffee and crispy chicken wraps are good, as expected and the tables and floor were spotless.The service from the staff has never let the management down. They are always polite, efficient and very friendly.

There was a young gentleman serving behind the counter with a black cap and grey kfc t-shirt, didn’t get his name, who was a great help in ordering and actually made me buy a larger meal because he had such a good sales pitch! He seemed a little nervous he was quite young but did really well, even with a difficult young female customer he handled it very well and kept very professional. He deserves a shout out!

It seems that McDonalds had a good decent sized budget to renovate their shop by expanding it and adding for chairs/benches.Those benches are rock hard and bolted/tucked in too close to the table.It’s just very awkward sitting on those benches and just makes the whole eating experience too uncomfortable .Table service is also speedy and so far never had any problems with the food .But shame that the whole renovation design looks all a bit Too Cold,Dull and no character at all to match McDonalds image.I’d personally sack the Designer for all future jobs .Shame ....My rating :Food 8/10Table speed Service 9/10Cleanliness 10/10Parking 10/10Seating comfortability 2/10Lighting 9/10Staff friendliness 10/10

Myself and my partner and our 6 kids and grandkids went here on the 29th of December before a panto at the Showhouse and it was truly awful.Took a couple of minutes to get served and then the employee serving me was surly and disinterested. Fast Food? It took nearly ten minutes to get our food and this was after the employee had fingered almost every chip on the tray has she tried to get everything on one tray.Then I asked for sauces for the nuggets. No we haven't got any? Went back 5 minutes later as I couldn't eat the excuse for nuggets without barbecue sauce and they were unpacking sauces. I asked the employee why she had not told me they were getting some and she simply shrugged.I then spent the following morning on the toilet thanks to the poor hygiene and cold and insipid food. Thanks McDonalds. I certainly wasn't loving IT.Oh and by the way the best thing about your burgers is the gherkin.

We ordered our food and there is a different set up in here now where by you go to one counter and order what you want and then you stand in a different area to wait for your food, I’m not so sure if it was any quicker then the old way but anyhow we have eaten here quite a lot and the food is always lovely and fresh and piping hot.

I went to lunch with my daughter and used the new screens to order and have table service which was excellent. The food was only ok though as it was only marginally warm. The restaurant could have also done with a good tidy and clean which I hate to see when I’m eating there even if you are paying fast food prices

Como todos los restaurantes no hay diferencia. Esperar lo que piensa y no lo voy a decepcionará. Comida, muebles, todo lo mismo que todos los otros restaurantes alrededor del mundo. Antes de que usted entra en su coche, tienes hambre de nuevo. De vez en cuando a una la misstake para probarlo, ya que tienes que comer algo. Pero nunca feliz, así que mi propio misstake. No debería hacerlo.

I work in the catering business myself and was annoyed at the lack of hygiene the MANGER was showing on her shift. All the TEAM MEMBERS followed the hygiene process by wearing hair nets and hats (even the guys with the shortest hair!!!!!!) as they were handling food so you expect them to be following this process so no hair ends up in food so 10/10 to the staff. However the Manger was walking round with her blonde hair in a pony tail minus the hair net and hat and making food and drinks where hair could end up. I did ask the girl who served me as to why it's a rule for them and a rule for her and explained my concerns... the girl had the expression on her face to say she has heard this before and looked like she was also annoyed that she was now wearing hair net and hat. The Manger is tall and blonde did not catch her name. I will definitely not order food while she is on shift that's for sure as I don't want hair in my food and drink!

Took our children here this afternoon and was absolutely disgusted that the so called manager was wondering in and out of the kitchen touching food and drink without a hair net or hat on.All other staff member was wearing hair nets and hats and if they didn't I can 100% guarantee they would get a warning of some form.I refused to eat in here after seeing this as she was wondering around near the food with hair over all the food. Disgusting won't be eating in here if she is on shift..... needs to go and learn about hygiene with the work place.

Pretty much like every other McDonalds around the world. Not necessarily a bad thing as you know what you are getting. Often when we use the drive through we are asked to wait as food is not ready. So we wait with hot food cooling and cold food warming while they cook a couple of items. They often forget straws and sauces etc too

This has to be the worst ever McDonalds,went there on a Saturday and yes they was busy but that is no excuse,if you can't stand the heat get out of the kitchen.The food was so bad,sloppy and wet and cold stuff bunged in a bun even the fries were rank drooping soggy strands of mush yuk,and the milkshake was a runny mixture of I don't know what(vomit perhaps but that would of tasted better)and when you complain no one can understand English conveniently.Avoid at all costs you have been warned I have been put of McDonalds for life!

I liked the look of this since it has been decorated so I thought I'd give it a go. The staff were friendly and efficient and made you feel welcome. The toilets were clean and well stocked up with essentials, you wouldn't get caught out here. Food was the usual standard you would expect with a bit too much salt on the fries. Can't they let you add your own?Before you leave check you have the right order as they can give you the wrong thing. Overall it was OK and far better than the one in Harlow Town centre. Although I will not be making a regular visit as its not my kind of food.

Fast food has a place in this world nowadays, in my view, but I only ever expect a drab service.On visiting this branch of Macdonalds, I was straight away impressed with the revamped look of the familiar chain, and then the excellent service. Not only with a small but the staff seemed genuinely interested in me, something you don't get in top end restaurants sometimes.Food was the usual thing you expect in Macdonalds but was quickly served.Great experience of what a fast food outlet should be, well done.

I have to write a review purely as a warning because they have made me ill. Made a huge order for 5 people, everyone's food was okay for the most part but whatever I had that was separate to everyone else made me violently sick. Most likely the hot and sour soup as half of it was vinegar, most likely to disguise the fact it was old. You'd expect fresh food on a Saturday night but this obviously isn't the case.
