We went for some food after watching Bedford Town v QPR (Dev) played at Hitchin Town at approximately 10pm on Friday 12 July. On arrival it wasn’t too busy, people were milling around and some cars in the drive through. We walked in and the whole place was spotless, some ares were closed down for the night (they close at 11pm) which made sense. We ordered easy from the giant boards - which in themselves were clean - then waited for our order. Everything was cooked fresh, was piping hot and delicious! We tried the new super stack burger and it was hands down the best one we have had! Our son had a classic Big Mac which he supersized himself by adding nuggets and fries - that was also cooked fresh and he said was super tasty! There were some local teenagers who arrived and were being quite loud and brash. The whole team handled them efficiently, with the right level of strength of tone while maintaining great customer service - advising them that they could order but wait outside (it was a mild and dry night) there was some resistance and unsavoury behaviour, this was all managed excellently by the staff team. The team were apologetic to us, which absolutely wasn’t required as it didn’t impact our dining experience in any way - although my son did appreciate the complimentary McFlurry from Maddie. If we are ever in the area again we will 100% go back - apologies for not getting all the team’s names - a huge well done though you are all fabulous!

I ordered through the app a Big Mac meal chicken dippers and a double cheese burger, turned up quick but cheese burger and ketchup dip was missing tried ringing the branch but no answer, rang the uber guy but he said I have to contact Mac Donald’s. Would had they answered the phone, not happy and out of pocket

I go to the drive through quite regularly, I can not describe how rude most of the staff are with a few exceptions. Orders are often wrong even very small orders ! When handing the food out there is one girl in particular that shoves the food at you, stares blankly with no greeting, smile or a thank you, just down right rude !! If I was the manager I would seriously take a look at how your staff deal with customers. You are lucky that this is Mcdonalds, you would get no returning customers if this was an independent restaurant. I do not often complain but this Mcdonads is the pit !

Having driven to Hitchin for an appt, Stopped for a quick burger. Parking is awkward, tight turn, you need to be in the drive through queue before you can go around. Auto machines advised take-out only, even though there were empty tables. Waiting not too long, but seemed to do easy orders before family bulk orders.

Always waiting ages going through the drive through, when you get to the point of ordering they are just plain rude. Don’t ask whether you want medium or large, rush you and make you forget things! Never give you the salsa dip for nacho bites or mozzarella dippers. While I was sat waiting in the car, I witnessed absolutely disgusting behaviour by young teenagers, sat on tables and getting on stools and vaping! Young children were eating their dinner with families and staff just allowed for them to continue being idiots! I avoid going to McDonald’s in Hitchin, as it is usually cold and naff. But on the off chance the chips are hot! But after getting my meal tonight, I shall not be returning and will tell others to not bother also. Terrible service and stone cold chips and burgers! Hitchin McDonald… sort it out!!

Our kids love McDonald's but the one in Hitchin always serves undercooked and usually cold fries. Even though though these days the burgers are supposedly made fresh they are always cold from Hitchin. There is usually some problem or another going on at this place and something from the menu is unable to be served. Yesterday we got the wrong wrap in our order, the kids wanted crayons for the colouring sheets but of course there weren't any. We had to ask for our table to be wiped clean but all of them in the restaurant were dirty but she didn't bother doing any of the many other dirty tables. The place is run by youngsters who don't really have any idea or experience or really seem to care all that much.

I ordered 3 sausage muffins, 5 hashbrowns and 2 teas. What was delivered (with the receipt for everything I ordered) was a single muffin, single hashbrown and a small coke. Obviously someone else's order. If you cannot read from a list of items and place them into a bag and hand it to a driver then my god! No fault of Just Eat as the bag had my receipt on it. Full failure from the restaurant. Avoid if you actually want what you paid for!

KUJIM! The man behind the fries. 10 out of 10. If it’s not Kujim, I don’t want it. Dedicated to his craft. Fresh, hot and flavourful. Focused and grounded. We love to see it. Best fries I’ve had in years. Kujim is the name - if I’m not mistaken 😇

This McDonald’s location is absolutely fantastic. A young woman named ela shibli served me and she was the most helpful employee ever. In my old age I have started to suffer from spells of confusion at random points throughout the day, and this young employee explained everything to me and helped me through the whole food ordering process. The younger generation is absolutely marvellous and makes me proud every day, especially this ela shibli who helped me. Everyone should be more like her.

I’ve been here multiple times, staff are always rude and unwelcoming. I visited yesterday and every member of staff at the window was unfriendly and didn’t even smile. The wait times are always long and orders are normally incorrect. Once I ordered mozzarella dippers (I’m vegetarian) and I got a box of chicken nuggets. Not a nice place to visit.

Went in here a few weeks back in a hunger emergency. I'm not a fan of McDonald's at all, so it was a realittle emergency! Anyway ordered a quaterpounder from the digital board as the queues were too long, I then asked a member of staff how often the touch screen and are cleaned (Google the swab tests on them) she looked at me like I was insane. I then asked if the had hand sanitizer to clean my hands after touching it and do then eating my burger. She told me she didn't know what that was. I asked where I could clean my hands and she pointed at the tiny bathroom which I found had urine everywhere and was certainly worse than the screen. I thenjoy asked another member of staff how they cleaned their hands before handling the food.... apparently that's not required. Still are the burger as it was an emergency, but like the others have said I waited ages, it was cold and it would not have surprised me if they fished out out the bin with the attitude

I'm sure the kids that run that mc Donald's in letchworth are forced to work there... the customer service is just terrible.. The frozen lemonade was so sour and gross I had to take it back. While I waited a good 5 mins before someone even came out to the front.. Many more people were also taking stuff back or getting stuff they didn't get. They need to get some adults in there and teach these kids the right was to deal with paying customer's. Customer service should be a top priority. Maybe even smile and same thanks once in a while.

There's usually nothing wrong with the food or the staff, but there are nearly always long waits. A couple of weeks ago, I stopped in for lunch before catching a train to take a job interview. I left 40 minutes for my meal to arive and me to eat it. However, it didn't turn up, and I had to dash out for my train, which I only just caught. Thankfully, at least I got the job!

I have used this restaurant many times over the years, due to having children, and I can honestly say the service gets worse every visit. Used the drive through tonight, asked to go to second window to wait for food. When delivered half of it was missing, they then gave me the order for the car behind me, when I was telling the manager the problem he ignored me and spoke to the person in the car behind me. So bloody rude. After two more attempts they got my order right. Never ever will I use this restaurant again. Disgraceful service

This is the SLOWEST McDonalds I have ever visited. Every time I go, it’s even worse!!! You queue for ages (drive through or restaurant) and at least expect your food to be fresh after such a ridiculous wait. But no. It’s cold and clearly been there for ages. I’m writing this while I wait for the drive through (no where to park or I would go in) and so far at 20 minutes just to get to the order window. God knows how long before I get the order.
