McDonald's Lountside in North West Leicestershire

Well what can I say first impression is disappointing the restaurant is absolutely filthy chips are hot unlike the meat that’s stone cold I visit a lot of McDonald’s and this I by far the worst iv ever been to

Quick service, friendly staff, clean restaurant

Only a slight wait for some good quality fries

Dirty seats and tables, lack of staff to ask to clean table to make available. This was extremely busy on a Saturday. Very loud. Lots of kids running around. Loads of mud on the floor. Horrible atmosphere. The good didn’t taste as good as others I’ve been to. Didn’t give enough straws, so I’ve had to wait for ages at the main counter , even though dine staff could see me, they ignored me, so my GIF went cold whilst I waited at the counter for 15 mins to get straws. The toilets were filthy. The chairs had ingrained dirt on them , and it took us ages to find a table that wasn’t completely dirty, but even that one had been cleaned inadequately, fries under table, seats and table still had fit marks on. I didn’t enjoy my food and couldn’t wait to leave.

Food was horrendous! It was so so tasteless except for the burgers which tasted like fish! First time going here and never again!.

One the guys that works here is top dollar can’t thank you enough you’ve made my day

A very unorganised branch . Always messing your order up and always finding eggshells in your breakfast! Disgusting 🫣

Tables all dirty rubbish littered all around

I had the mc crispy it was quite nice although after a few minutes the chips were freezing but I love it there so much

Quick service and lovely food - We can recommend the chicken share box

Everything was fine, driving into the place was abit of a mystery tour. But the service was good & the staff was fine. & as always the food was good.

A nice big carpark. Service with a smile. A smile from me as I got a receipt and a well filled bacon bun and a nice cup of coffee ☕️ toffee latte. No questions asked when I cheekily asked for a second jam for my porridge. Happy staff that made me smile as I started my day on a drizzly morning.

Vile....never had such an awful chicken wrap Chewy and cold This isn't the first time from here either...:(

Very good quality food and very clean, staff were excellent

One of the best mcdonalds around the area, good service and quick Edit: been a couple of times recently, each time there has been issues / missing items. Management are friendly and resolve the issue.

Don’t be bothered. Before you decide to go there take a look at my double sausage egg muffin with extra bacon. Without EGG AND BACON.

Stopped here for a couple of cappuccinos. Got down the road to discover that one was just milky water and the other a very weak coffee. I wonder how many others had the same issue.

Ordered via Macdonalds app, delivered via Uber. Order came fully intact from Uber. Missing item then found from the order when opened - however when contacted Macdonalds they've said I have to pick it up with Uber eventhough they made the error in packing the food. Uber can only refund the missing item but I then need to pay an additional delivery fee to get my missing items delivered! What utter bullshit, and stupid resolution process. Teflon shoulders from both companies. I appreciate mistakes happen but have processes in place to make sure things will be put right! Bunch of hungry people on the receiving end of this malarkey!!!!

Got my order wrong again then challenged it and was told I was wrong when I had the bloody receipt

Worst experience in a McDonald's ever, no care and attention to food presentation, just chucked in the baps and served. Once again no shakes were available to purchase due to lack of stock availability/ ordering, this seems to be a constant in many McDonald's recently, the drinks had about as much fizz as water, and the special big mac sauce tasted more of vinegar than the actual sauce. Formal complaint sent to McDonald's HQ for investigation.

One of the nicer mcds. It is very clean and has lots of space outside to sit down.

Very slow, always get order wrong

Took my family to Drayton Manor for the day so this was supposed to be a quick meal for my kids before the trip home. Food is what you expect, fast food rubbish. Service wasn't brilliant, it also seems they prioritise Uber eats/ just eat orders as I was stood waiting for my order for about 20/25 minutes resulting in me having to ask how much longer I have to wait.

Milkshake machine always broken, how difficult is it? Every other McDonald’s manages to have a working machine

Whenever taking away food, the fries are always dry, flavourless and sometimes cold. Our orders get mixed up, and ingredients are often missing. Really disappointing

Ordered food staff was too busy laughing and giggling, whilst serving us, Got our food order which was totally wrong Order was, 2 cheeseburger meals 1 cheeseburger had nothing except the patty Ordered chicken mayo meal didn't get the chicken mayo First time here will not be back in a hurry

Had 3 drinks and the machine was working

Absolutely shocking service. Unorganised. Delivery orders always wrong. Customer service on complaint is shocking. Staff are rude and unprofessional. Food quality poor. Overall experience 0. Waste of money and no effort to make it right.

We ordered some food for dinner for my daughter and her two friends. Morgan gave us the food and was very pleasant and accommodating. Thank you Morgan!

Service wasn't the greatest. food standard

This was my first visit to this Maccies. The taste was of the double sausage, and egg meal seemed a bit more bland than it used to, and it was also barely warm. But I was hungry so I still ate it. 😂

Sick of turning up and finding the disabled parking spaces taken up by food delivery people . Very often we have had to park on the road because we need room to get the wheelchair out of the car .

Ordered through uber as priority. Food must have been standing a while as it was stone cold

We actually sat outside in the glorious weather and had table service

I went here for the toilets and thank you for that so much

Was served by Morgan who is also vegan like us! Made us feels so welcome and lovely service well done morgan

You just can’t beat a maccies!!

One of the dirtiest McDonald's I've been to in UK. If you look closely when you there you will see.

This restaurant needs sorting...over the past month they are consistently short on products from their menu, being unavailable. They have tech issues and close the restaurant frequently. No bacon products available this morning!...coned off the other day, and no hot drinks/cold drinks regular occurence. Sort it out management

Unfortunately there was a problem with drinks machines. So no coke etc or hot drinks.

Great atmosphere and food. Area nice and clean, decided to use table service as I'm a disabled customer and was travelling alone. Quick service! Many thanks!

Had to wait a while for the food as the restaurant was busy but worth the wait.

Food bad. Service as bad as an Albanian massage, atmosphere good due to the juvenile chanting between rival groups

Very good location, my service was excellent and the food was hot served in a timely manner and I got exactly what I asked for free from error in this occasion. Thank you.

Convenient to access and with standard McDonalds food. Nice outside area for eating food

Fast service friendly staff. Clean disabled toilets good access with disabled parking next to the front entrance. going to make it a regular car break stop on our journey.

After having my order messed up more times than I can count I’ve finally decided to post a review on here , a good 80 percent of the time I order from here they mess the order up , either missing something completely or not following simple instructions on how to make a burger … ie putting toppings on a burger when specifically asked not too , for example I ordered a cheeseburger without onion or pickles it came without onion and pickle but also no bloody cheese or they just give you a burger rammed full of onions or pickles ! food comes out cold fries mostly always stale DO NOT USE THIS PLACE

Always very slow getting the food out

Always lovely service and hot food from thos particular branch

Constant wrong deliveries and no cares given if you call up, milkshake machine rarely works and today for breakfast no bacon and only bottled drinks available. I struggle to see why these machines break down so often when other MacDonalds don't seem to have this issue.

There soft drinks machine is always broken

food served sloppily, carbonated drinks, I do not recommend !!!

I wish McDonald's should clean their toilets, smelling toilets and poor customer service, and very unhappy staff. No smiles 🙁

If I could give them zero stars I would. Ordered via the app for delivery. Food arrived stone cold and items missing. Called the branch only to be told by the Manager that it’s Ubers issue. I didn’t pay Uber.. apparently I have to drive up to get the burger I already paid for. Not going into detail but hung up on 3 times by the so called manger and still no way of solving a £40 cold order with an item missing. The guy couldn’t have given less of a sh1t if he tried. At least pretend to care about the service you provide! Literally disgraceful customer service. Food that did arrive was awful and wrong. Onions on the burger where I asked for no onions, anaemic chips with green and black ends and crushed cold burgers.

Terrible !! Ordered breakfast at 10:50 Order was ready 15 minutes later ! Our breakfast wasn't even piping hot

Food was cold and milkshakes were warm

Very clean, fast and friendly McDonald's Service is brilliant, a great McDonald's to stop off for breakfast if on a long journey. Staff are very friendly and the food is ready in an instant

Nice Mac Donalds restaurant,,with good (table) service.

Delivery takes the absolute mick, they take absolutely forever and then when it goes to finding another delivery person they dont find another so your just sat there waiting for absolutely nothing. No point

Firstly food was ok not the best Macdonald's, wrong order but rectified quickly. Toilets were dirty but the restaurant was clean and so was the outside space, parking was good and staff friendly.

Good clean and excellent food. No change. Just excellent staff friendly and helpful very customer focused. It has not changed at all. Still brilliant staff great especially Kristina 💯 customer focused. Still great

Milkshake machine works as of April 2024. Worth 5*, because nothing was wrong whatsoever.

I ordered a cheeseburger with no cheese and got a cheeseburger with cheese. I went to challenge the incorrect order. The lady behind the counter noted the mistake but did not apologise. She called the shift manager and I asked can I get a quarter pounder with no cheese and I said I was hoping they would make it gratis given the mistake. He charged me the difference still with no apology. They made the new order and I asked with no apology. The manager said pardon, I said none of you have apologised for this original order being incorrect so the shift manager and the server replied me with attitude well we are sorry. To which I said oh I am 1-star reviewing you immediately so here I am making it known.

Staff member was very helpful and friendly. Place was spotless and service was quick

Slow so Slow, ordered x3 chips and a wrap of the day took 20 mins. We were number 24. Number 37 got their food before us. Food fine, service not good.

Usual soulless venue off a main road. Only visited while charging car.

I popped in for a McBreakfast, had a McShit, then went to work

Nice staff very attentive food is what it is

I love your food bc it's great! Unfortunately i gave 4 starts bc the milkshake machines always broken!!!?!!! Everytime i come in.

Not a very good place waited nearly a quarter of a hour from paying at the machine ..i had a big mac meal burger looks like it was thrown together and looked like it been opened there is no pride in presentation also a mix up on the drinks. Some one from McDonald's was doing interviews in the sitting area next to customers not good practice so u could over hear candidates details .interviews are private in my eyes ,

Steakhouse burger for me !! Love it wooo

Really nice and polite service, one of the better places to stop for Macy’s

Great service, friendly staff. Clean restaurant. I am not paid to leave reviews- Neil

What can I say.... if you want a quick bite or a quick drink, then this is a place to visit. Food has declined over the years, not fast food, even if your order before going. Food does not look anything like pictures, false advertising, and overpriced for what you get. Please cook a home meal, so much better for you, avoid taking young children as they need better nutrition and healthier meals important for their development.

Food was pretty good a quickly brought to table

A good breakfast stop on the trip to Birmingham

Arguably the best Maccies in the Swad/Ashby area.

Waited 20 minutes for our food. Staff standing around doing nothing. Went up twice to ask where it was eventually arrived. The food was tepid/lukewarm. Could not be bothered to complain and have to wait yet again. Ate what we could and left. £34.94 down the drain. Never had a bad experience in a McDonald’s before but this was extremely disappointing- would not recommend this branch to anyone.

Always good service. Update on my previous review. I wouldn't bother using the mcdelivery app for this store may times I've had items missing and have had to either reorder or go to the store. I order the delivery for convenience not to have to sort out missing items when it arrives! Going in store isn't a problem they are friendly and courtesy.

The staff were particularly upbeat

Ive had to delete my review just to start a new one ,I rang to talk to a manager sounded like a bunch of kids asking who's the manager complete joke food burnt orders missing why I keep going to this place I do not know

Had a drive thru. 3 meals. No consistency. My fries were cold, limp, and so disgusting I couldn't eat them.

most of the staff are very good and polite with a smile. Young lady name of Emily first class service everytime. Young Irish man name callum is very good same service as Emily. they both need rewarding for there special effects.

Typical MD restaurant, however staff very friendly

Hot food for a change. And fast service.

Worst McDonalds ever. Burgers were cold and stale and staff are nothing short of rude and useless.

ACTUAL HOT GARBAGE SERVICE!!!! DO NOT ORDER will forget your items

Staff polite, service fast. Sometimes part of order missing in drivethru. Bit late to return when you back on motorway.

I visit most mornings for breakfast, it's mcdonald's food, so you know what your getting but the staff make it better.

Outstanding this has to be one of the McDonald I’ve been to

What can i say?? Its McDonald's

Typical Mac D's was busy but food was ready quickly and was lovely staff were great too. As usual very very busy around lunch food was ready quickly .

Had a good family meal, which children especially enjoyed (and so did the adults!) convenient location just off services road.

Really nice restaurant with standard food options. Nice sunny parking area to stretch your legs.

A nice clean and quiet McDonalds. No problems with our order. Pleasant staff.

Used this McD’s a fair few times after shopping in Ashby, on the whole food is good but if you get a burger that been Uber the lights a bit to long it’s not so good. Latest visit was for breakfast - love the break fast bap, but have also had the burgers. Find it bizarre when at times get asked to park in the collection bays for a simple order with nothing unusual on it. Staff friendly.

Really quick to get served during busy period ans food was good.

Omg!! This place is a joke🤣🤣. When joe I believe ran the place as a manager rectified stuff , he was fantastic who the hell is running this place now needs to wake up and have some management training. Things ran well some times didnt. But he would sort the bill joe and rectify things! I rang up as my order was messed up! Not a surprise for ashby. Rang up spoke to a really bad manager. Who didnt care. Avoid this Macdonalds! Go to abbleby magna much better. Ashby needs a lot of training especially management. Rom good luck!

Love it so much but now I’m a fattie and my son is fat

It's a McDonald's, one of the smaller venues but clean and the food actually looked good.
