Great, fresh food. Always love McDonald's but this was even better as all our food was fresh. Must say, if you're in Edinburgh and looking for somewhere to eat, it's worth it to pop in as prices are so low! One of the best McDonald's I've been to.

Food as you know from McDonalds. The ordering kiosk did not want to accept the payment after several times, so we went to the cash register. Paid as expected, food did not arrive. I am told that I had done it wrong..... maybe true, maybe not, but the response was certainly not friendly from the staff. I don't have to go anymore, there's plenty of food in Edinburgh.

My friend and I were out for a nice quick bite to eat before we went to the zoo and unfortunately, it was far from that. Our food took quite a while to come when it wasn’t even busy. When it did finally come it wasn’t the right food and my friend and looked at our food in shocked and were disgusted at what was in front of us, and when we did finally alert somebody about the issues with many food items, they didn’t seem to be bothered or apologetic and seemed like we were an annoyance to them. May i add we also noticed other customers getting frustrated as their orders had also been implemented and they were clearly not pleased as it is not what they ordered. I truly believe this is unacceptable as it was more than one food item that was different to what i ordered. I will simply never be returning here again as this has made us frustrated and extremely disappointed.

Despite the promising menu, my dining experience fell short of expectations. The food quality was acceptable, but it was consistently served lukewarm, which diminished the overall enjoyment. Additionally, the customer service was subpar, the washrooms were unclean, and there were repeated order mistakes. These issues need to be promptly addressed by management to ensure a more pleasant dining experience for future patrons.

Im actually shocked at the audacity of this mcdonalds. Called up because part of my order was missing from my app delivery, explaining that this has left a 3 year old autistic child who will only eat chicken nuggets (from mcdonalds) without food. The guy on the phone stated that the order wasnt placed at that mcdonalds even though the app told us differently. He then told us that there was other mcdonalds on the same street and gave us a fake number to call!! Google shows only one mcdonalds on princes street and the app also says that!! Its an actual joke!!!

The hot chocolate was okay, considerably acceptable temperature, the consistency could be improved, the drink was perhaps rather granulated, and additionally the richness wasn't incredible, a little too watery and not quite high enough chocolate concentration. By McDonald's standards though, a decent hot chocolate. 3/10

Though we know what to expect at Macdonald's and don't get too excited about visiting, we were disappointed that, when our food arrived it was almost cold. This was particularly frustrating as we had table service and we didn't have to wait long for our order. Usually average food at best was a struggle to get down. The tables were also dirty, but we come to expect that. I don't know how staff manage to cover all the tasks when customers are ordering table service for one item at a time and then following their order with another single item. It's a miracle they are so polite!

The quality of McDonald's is good and even the service. My only concern is that the place doesn't look squeky clean as other QSRs. Maybe McDonald's is more popular. However, they should ensure strict cleanliness in terms of removing spilled over items on the floor, empty bins, etc.

Food is generally decent but service is not so great. Half the time there is no table service or they forget to bring napkins or salad cutlery with the food. Also, give the person that decided to remove the napkin / sauce self service from the top floor a promotion. Customers get to eat fast food and spend the calories right away by jogging up and down the stairs. Truly a genius move 👍

In anderen Filialen musste ich trotz der geringen Bestellmenge deutlich länger warten, also Hut ab und Respekt an die Mitarbeiter.

Whenever employees at the counter are happily chatting with their friends while working they alway manage to miss one or two items. Don’t even bother double check, but if you do check the bag at the counter they side eye like “dude, I can do my job”… well, clearly not. I don’t understand why it happened so often there. Is not that hard. Also why is allowed for them to waste time chatting with their friends while working? Is a fast food establishment is not rocket science. You put what’s in the order in the bag, double check and there you go… 3 items in the order, 3 items in the bag, if you did put 2 there’s something missing, it’s no brainer. Obviously having a chat with their pals (not coworkers) while working is not helping them with simple math. It happens at least 3 times this month even in quiet days. Wake up please.

The atmosphere was ok, service slow and food fairly average... a bit of a shame really as I was looking forward to an epic McDonald's meal. The food took a very long time to be brought out. Once the food did arrive I didn't enjoy it as much as my previous orders, this was partially as I was in a bit of a huff, however also the food tasted very dry and it wasn't quite warm enough. This being said the atmosphere was rather groovy, there was some really nice music being played and this lifted my mood so by the end of the meal I was feeling better. However this is not my first experience at this McDonald's and I dont remember not having a perfectly fine meal previously.
