The slowest fast food restaurant. Use Cowdrey or Stanway. Save yourself 30 minutes.

Very nice McDonald’s the new builds. Food was good, it was clean but some tables were dirty considering it was quiet, us and a family of 4 just got there. Drive through wasn’t busy either. When receiving our order the staff (woman) that gave the food didn’t seem very friendly. Just gave the food and walked off. Working in food myself I wouldn’t class that as good customer service.

Quick service at the drivethrough and generally less busy than the nearby McDonalds on Cowdray Avenue, but check your order before leaving the window - when ordering food for 4-5 people, they manage to forget something more often than not.

I visited this McDonald's this morning. I had an order for a coffee ordered through app for my friend and ordered a bacon and egg mcmuffin meal ordered on site for myself. I could see there were about 5 people ahead of me already waiting, a bit of time goes by and I can see lots of orders being prepped but very little being called out for in the restaurant, I could see order after order being sorted for the drive through and the in branch orders seemed to barely be moving, after about 15 minutes people started to chase up where their order is, I waited a bit longer and my patience was wearing thin as I was on a work break, I asked politely where my orders were, a young girl went to find out, she came back with my order but asked what the order for the app was for as this has gone missing, I then tell her it was for a coffee to which she picks up this cup thats been sat there for as long as I had been waiting (25 minutes at this point) and said its this one and went to hand it to me. I refused to take it and said that's been sat there for 25 minutes I'd like a fresh one, which she did sort. I felt whilst I was waiting there was no urgency from 90% of the staff members but also no communication. They are quite happy to just leave you standing there for 25 minutes, if I had not have asked where my food was I feel that the drive through customers would have remained a priority and I dread to think how much longer I would have waited. I work near by and I most certainly will not use this McDonald's again as this isn't the first time I've had a problem. 25+ minutes is a joke for a fast food restaurant!!!!!

Turner Rise McDonald's had friendly staff and a nice atmosphere, but the food had problems. Fries took too long and were cold. Burgers were good though and made up for the lack in quality of the fries.

Brilliant hot chocolate and coffee on the go. Brilliant drive through. Near Asda and B&M. So it's a good place to get food if you're shopping. Definitely going again

How hard is it to look at a list of items and then put the items on that list into a bag, always something wrong or missing, the kitchen is more like a youth club.

This McDonald's is the closest to my house and I'm often here. If I go Through the drive through more or Less of my experiences have been bad, Forgotten food. No correct sauces in the bag etc, or even the food is cold. However when I have been in the restaurant I always sit upstairs and every single time we have been met by Chris ( the friendly chap with glasses) he is always so kind and is always more than happy to help anyone. He interacts so lovely with everyone and is so good at his job. People like him really save companies like this because although I regularly am left dissopointed by the drive through service whenever we're in McDonald's he puts a smile on mine and my sons face. Chris you deserve a pay rise.. we need more staff like you in hospitality

A good restaurant split over 2 floors. Has a lift for disabled. Wasn't busy when we went, but a reasonable amount of tables. My only criticism is that a lot of seating is bolted to the floor, making it awkward for a wheelchair user to sit at many of the tables. Table service worked well with very helpful staff

I have made an order in Colchester Turner Rise, Retial Park branch for the first time visit the was the shift manager which we have informed him we ordered from self service machine and we told him we don’t know the order number because it didn’t print the receipt we made an order at 14:45 ( it shown on my bank record if you need to proof as when we asked for receipt your were rude in front line staff with male with blonde hair not wearing a hat hair up despite handling the food did not give it to us and another customer asked us how long we have been waiting for our food to which I referred to my Apple Pay records and showed that we have waited for 35 minutes for our order so that what we said that same customer then came to the cashier and asked the your rude shift manager how long is the wait as 35 minutes when they were not even busy to their unnecessary rude attitude response they have been here less then 15 minutes and they don’t know the concept of time baring in mind we have not made any complaints even when we could have and we’re waiting there patiently but was suddenly attacked verbally by your front line who clearly doesn’t understand the concept of customer service I didn’t get the rest names and I don’t want to entertain such rude behaviour and refrained from a fuss as we found the your front line staff was not worth the time as he seems clearly bored from having a lack of things to do however I do hope that you do take action and hopefully train him better or hire someone else more deserving because that is more or less likely the reason why the shop had a bad reputation from other customers we have met who experienced the same thing. Working at customer service myself this is truly not acceptable. On top of that when we have finally received our order we found that he has not prepared it the way we ordered and paid for , no sauce no salt with fries and have piad extra for BQ sauce and our order was incomplete for ,35 minutes wait is this really appropriate to be served incomplete food , that we had paid for????????????

Nice new restaurant food was fine but they did forget my fruit bags for the kids, male manager on shift working the pick up line was rude and lucky I did not punch him, if my kids wernt with me may off bene different story there self service machine was out of paper so no receipt and he was not helpful I had to tell him to look up my order on his till then i herd him say to a colleague that I was lying and had most probably had eaten them self and wanted more for free. The gut has no customer service skills and definitely needs a slap / retraining at minimum. Very rude and bad attitude the place was not even busy.

I love the new design of the McDonald's inside and you can even choose to sit outside if you want. The staff are super helpful if you need anything so I recommend this new Mcdonald's. 10/10 HAPPY CUSTOMER

Rude staff, overheard her say on the headset “yes they are still going” - clearly getting ready to close, but maybe think before you speak. Rude manager - telling me how I should order a ‘Quarter pounder, with no cheese’ because apparently asking for a plain quarter pounder with no cheese isn’t clear enough. After the incident with the burger needing to be replaced, told we needed to wait for another one as they had turnt off the grills. All in all, poor experience.

Took 10 mins to get out order, cold, paid for extra pickles in a double cheeseburger & they didn't put any in & actually took ALL the pickles out. 2 people was waiting for their meal before we even ordered & was still waiting when we got ours. The place was empty. Staff wandering around doing nothing, a lady asked for her table to be cleaned & was told "I'm not the cleaner" so stood waiting. Then cleaner finally arrived & the lady she asked in the first place had started doing it, why she didn't do it on the first place I don't know. For a newly opened macds, it was pretty lame.

Ordered online. Meals were missing. You cannot contact them directly if you order online. When children are involved, it creates a serious problem. This was supposed to be a special treat. Collect Number 43343. I have the collection number as well. Mcdonald's in Colchester is absolute garbage! I thought the new one would be better. But no! They are not good. They need better management.

Ordered drinks and a toastie, got to the table and both spoons we were given were dirty. Took them back to the counter and asked for two clean spoons as these are dirty! The staff member said "we are busy" I said that's no excuse for dirty cutlery! He then said well, I've not had time to wash up properly with an angry tone. All the staff member needed to say was sorry and give two clean spoons instead of answering back. Left a bad feeling and we left early.
