Used click and collect this evening. Sat waiting for ages, 4 other cars in after us and served before us. Have tried calling to speak to someone and no one is answering the phone so I’m just going to post pictures of my meal that should have no lettuce and extra onion. The bread is also burnt.

Left waiting like idiots at their click and collect, Then when we mentioned this at drive thru, stunned when they said “not my issue”, Then the manager stood at the sever part until it was our turn staring at us through out the time In the queue. Embarrassed herself by stating she was the manager and she was checking we were happy, really, Complains sand the. 3 weeks for their head office to write back “thanks”, Wow, Cold food, Service a disgrace, Attitude even worse, Cheap fast food. So suppose the don’t care, Yet they state they prideThemselves on customer service.

Paid for and turned up to collect an app order. Staff member said payment was pending, it wasn't and I had confirmation. The app is broken and the staff did not know what to do or offer any help. Spoke to a manager call Danielle and she was about as much use as a McChocolate fireguard. Drove away and then the app stated "Thanks for your order - come again"!This McDonalds has many problems and they are incapable of supplying the correct food that was ordered. I will not be back to this McDonalds and (probably) the chain due to the poor service and diminishing food quality.A letter of complaint is coming your way McDonalds and I hope it leaves a bad taste in your mouth like your food.Avoid Forfar McDondalds.

Arranged to meet with some friends from another household that we had not seen since the beginning of lockdown for a cheap meal and a catch up...although the catch up was good the £50 fine for parking longer than the allotted time (which is very poorly signposted) turned this into a very expensive trip. I can say that I will never be visiting again. My advise is if you are looking for a Mcdonalds to meet up with friends go to Arbroath or the KFC round the corner that wont charge you £50 - 100 just for parking and using the facilities.

Need to put up some signage in relation to the drive thru queue especially now there are two order points. On more than one occasion everyone has been patiently waiting in line until the queue splits in two and you go to the left or right order point. Then some idiot decides to cut the queue and claim there is in fact two separate queues (there’s not, the one queue splits like a fork in the road and they ended up blocking the entrance to the car park). The drive thru system has always been tight for space at this McDonald’s but a little signage would go a long way.

Visited tonight got my order wrong Was told to go back through drive thru to reorder part of order they got wrong,I explained the rest of my order would be cold by the time we got through again .I went in to get my order at the counter and was confronted by the most awful attitude,very confrontational.Terrible terrible attitude from lady called Cathy think she was a site manager not sure as she challenged me because she thought I was reading her name badge ,which I wasnt but did after she challenged me.Absolutely stinking attitude.Needless to say by the time I got the rest of my order everything was stone cold.Would definately give this place a miss.Awful .I may add though the young man who served me was very nice I think he was a site manager also.Now he is the kind of person who should be dealing with customers.

In January 2020, I went to McDonald’s with my mum . The experience was good. When I went it was really busy and we struggled to get a seat. But the good experience about McDonald’s is the good food and loads of tables to choose from even though when i went it was busy. I would definitely go back to Forfar McDonald’s.

My family and I went here as a treat after school once we got there we ordered then sat down and it took about 2 minutes for our food to arrive and the food was great but the part that threw me off was how sticky the floors were and how dirty the tables were. It was disgusting but nevertheless the food was good and the service was and I would recommend coming here.

Stopped for lunch here when heading towards Aberdeen on a Monday.The small carpark was full, plus a large queue at the drive thru.We used the self service system, which worked well. Food arrived quickly, which was impressive considering how busy they were. The cleaning lady was rushed off her feet trying to clean the all the tables. She was doing well.My meal was good, especially the fries and nuggets (they were well done), but my chicken select was too moist (not easy to get it drier internally without having a charcoal exterior no doubt). A good stop off though. Toilets clean/tidy too.The road signs for north/south traffic require to be placed at the exit of this McDonald's onto the main road, to help tourists.

So my experience of this McDonald’s was somewhat ‘mixed’. The food itself was as good as it normally is - no complaints and some fairly quick service overall.Three minor issues came from this visit. The restaurant itself was difficult to get to if you are driving north (better signposting would be a recommendation).Also, the building was packed and the staff were struggling to cope (the queue system became ineffective in the end). Lastly, my card payment didn’t print off a receipt from the touchscreen menu. Thankfully in this situation, the member of staff was trusting enough to give me my order when I stepped forward.Overall, a satisfactory visit to this restaurant (very conveniently positioned on the A90).

A rather unusual bunch of luncheon requests from the two under-tens in my charge the other day. One wanted popcorn chicken and fizzy orange, no ice, from KFC for his ... along with McDonald's chips and ice cream. The other grandson wanted a quarter pounder with cheese and nothing else ... plus diet coke, no ice, and ice-cream from McD. Well, we completed the order for about twelve quid and one run round the chicken shack and two around Ronald's drive-thru. I must say we'll have to be a bit more strict with the kids next time.

Just been to McDonald's and was shocked at the attitude and rudeness of the staff. We had juat been through the drive through and did not get out mcflurries so i went back in for them, only for them to moan at me saying "you drove off too soon". Maybe yes this was our mistake for driving off too soon but as a person who works with customers everyday you do not then laugh and roll your eyes with your colleagues about the situation right in front of the customer. I was told three times by the same woman "you drove off without them, you need to just wait". Number 1 I didn't say to them it was their fault and number two dont speak to me like I'm a child. Left not knowing what to say to them as the place was busy and I felt belittled. Customer service training is needed and I'm gutted I didn't catch the girls name.

My son met friends here on his way home for Xmas holidays from Uni. Stayed for meal, then coffees, chatting as they all arrived at different times. He was not aware of the 90 mins limit on parking. He was then sent fine from UK Parking Control. McDonalds Forfar - I will never stop there again or use any McDonalds for that matter. Explains why so many cars are parked up on the roadway in. Not a good way to treat customers. Know our custom means nothing as you are so huge.

Wow, these guys are happy to deal with predatory parking penalty companies. We parked here and had our meal. I took a call from work, I thought safer to take the call from a car park than on the dual carriageway. Bang, £100 fine from a disreputable parking penalty company for parking longer than some unknown limit. McDonalds unhelpful. They are clearly taking a cut. No obvious sine-age or parking bay warnings. A company who deals and takes revenue from such organisations does not deserve my custom and I will not use McDonalds again - probably better for my health anyway.

Stopped in by the restaurant for a treat with my family on the way back from a day out in Perth. Ordered food and was sitting eating when my 4 year old son felt unwell after eating the fish fingers with his "happy meal" he then was sick and started to vomit. My partner had cleaned up the small amount that he had been sick and sent my daughter to notify a member of staff while I attended to my son in the customer toilet. On my arrival back I had found out the one of the staff members had said "I would make her clean it her fu*king self" to which my partner and other customers in the restaurant heard clear as day. I called for the manager who said the girl in question would be delt with but was very shocked at how we were treated. On leaving other customers has asked us if my son was ok and were appalled at the language used by a staff member and the unhelpful way the staff had gone about it. I hope that this issue is sorted asap as I would not like other families to be spoken to or treated the way we were.

We often stop here en route South. Mcdonalds is what it is. You get some food. It fills a hole and you move on. We find the food is made to order here so "tastes" a little better than other restaurants we have visited. Staff are always polite enough and I am a fan of the new ordering system - takes away the need to "interact" with people as much. All in all, it's worth stopping for a quick bite before you get on your way again to your final destination.....

Sometimes after doing a big shop you just can't be bothered to go home and cook, so you seek out the nearest fast food venue.Guilty! Seemed to be your typical Macdonalds with no-one on the premises over the age of 30.We decided to sample the new beef and cheese burger, which was ok, but personally prefer the bacon cheeseburger. Tasty chips though.No complaints about service which was prompt and pleasant, and assistant brought the meals over to the table once they were ready.A quick and filling stop-gap dinner.

On our way to Ayr from Aberdeen we stooped off at Mcdonalds in Forfar on the A90. As we were tight for time we decided to get a drive thru. We arrived in a large queue of cars but as its a drive thru it would move quick. We sat in the queue for 20 mins before our order was taken and then after paying we were told to take a parking spot to await our order. We waited a further 20 mins for our food. We were not the only ones waiting for our food this length of time. The whole set-up was shocking and no one came to apologise. This is not the first time this has happened at this particular Macdonalds location and I can tell you now, I won't be back. The way its designed, once in the queue you can't get out and once you pay you have to stay and wait for the food. The lack of customer care was shocking. Call it fast food! I could go into a restaurant order food and be finished in the time it took to get my order. I want this logged as an official complaint as something needs to be done about this location. Because its a good location right on the A90 it gets a lot of custom but they are just not staffed and organised to deal with it and its putting not just me off but a whole lot of people I spoke to. There is a KFC right beside it and this will be getting my custom from now on.....

Sorry but one of my worst experiences ever when buying food.... On Tuesday 17th October at 9pm both my Daughter and i decided to have a takeaway meal from the restaurant. We ordered via computer order 37 and joined the queue to await our takeaway meals... We witnessed one of the girls with dark hair pulling together an order that just looked like ours but it turned out to be 31.. The girl at the desk called out 31 but no takers. After about five minutes i just wandered over as other people that were behind me were picking up orders so i looked at the order on the tray that looked like ours but it said 31 on ticket but it was clear that 31 was not what was on the tray. The girl asked me if this order was mine i said i think it was because thats what i ordered and gave her my ticket.The girl apologised then began to put the order that was on the tray into a bag for us to takeaway. I said to the girl sorry i dont want that as it will be cold as been sitting on the tray for well over five minutes by this time. Maybe even more.. Anyway the girl then opened my burger box put her hand onto my burger and said no it was fine to her.... I'm sure you can understand my displease at the girl. I said i'm not eating that now anyway thats for sure. The girl then walked over to the young man in the kitchen with my order and said to him as he was cooking other burgers.. The gentleman says his burger is cold.. He then lifted the box and again put his hand onto the burger and said to the girl that's fine to me..he then looked at me a shock his head in displease to the girl. At this point i'm sorry but i raised my voice of displease not about the burger being hot or cold but the fact that food handlers have gone about their business in such a manner.. Im sure you understand i don't want someone doing that to my food that im about to eat,, Anyway hopefully this is not a regular occurrence with others food served at this restaurant i'm sure its not.. To be fair a girl with Blonde hair on the till came across and really apologised about three or four time.. I really think the girl and the young gentleman should be spoken to about their actions and standards expected...

Suffice to say it was good value for money and met with our approval.This branch of McDonald's is situated close to the main A90 dual carriageway and also has a 'Drive Thru'.

Ended up leaving food, no option of refund as the counter was bouncing with people ready to eat and order, and left even more hungry. This place seems to forget that people are eating this food, and it's not a case of getting an order and bashing it out as quickly. Hygiene practices needs to be addressed immediately. That was on one occasion. How many more has there been?? Probably won't be back for a while, so next time I pass I may pop in, who knows??

Like millions of others tonight, we had what we Scots describe as our "tea" at McDonalds this evening, as our sink was being replaced ... rendering our kitchen unusable. As good an excuse as any, you might say.We were three in number, two adults and one grandchild of seven and a half. I had the McChicken Sandwich Meal ... which is what I always have there and, for the money, it was as usual a first class offering. The boy ordered a Happy Meal with Chicken Nuggets and Fanta and he too was delighted with his. My wife had an adult version of the kid's meal and chomped merrily away until she annnounced that her nuggets were cold. I suggested she return to the counter with the 3 nuggets she had left and ask for fresh ones ... which she duly did ... and came back to our table with no less than 6 fresh & hot ones.No more complaints from us. The staff were very busy but as helpful as ever though none looked as though they had already achieved their 20th year.The place was clean and being kept clean ... certainly throughout our visit.Finally, three hungry people fed and watered for £11.47... what might there be to complain about?

Ordered a takeaway meal for the family had some special requirements so expected a slight delay but didn't expect a half hour wait for 4 meals. Since McDonalds have changed the system of preparing food the wait at Forfar has been ridiculous. There is always a delay even for the simplest of orders and during todays visit there was a poor woman who ordred 2 hot drinks in front of me and still had a 20 minute delay. This is unacceptable and no wonder the place is getting poor reviews. Top tip to anyone wanting to visit go when its quiet otherwise expect a long delay or cold food.

It's over a year since my last visit to a McDonalds, I was hungry and needing a quick break from driving in a long journey so I stopped at this one just outside Forfar.I ordered the chicken legend with fries and a bit chocolate at the drive through. The service was pretty quick and cheery dispite being busy but that's the only vaguely positive comment I can make, when I opened my meal it was disgusting! The chicken was slimy and grizzly underneath the batter, and the hot chocolate was watery, with no foamed/hot milk and was ridiculously sweet. Next time I'll keep driving!

Popped in here for the breakfast two mornings running, have to say no problem with food on day one, however I did comment to them about the sauce that was splattered all over there serving hatch, dried in.Didn't think much more of it apart from it looked dreadful.Morning two guess what, it's still there, now considering this is the serving hatch, Ie the table of this restaurant it was disgusting, if you walked into a restaurant and dried sauce was on the table, not sure many people would want to eat in such a place.When I pointed it out to assistant manager, the lack of customer service was staggering.Not at any time was the servery to be cleaned, but I was certainly told how it wasn't they're fault etc etc etc.Now if they can't clean the hatch, what else here is not clean.I would be careful using this one again, have to say when offered the food free, not a chance, disgusting.So easy to let a place down and on this visit it certainly has.Some training required I think.

I normally stop here on the way south from AberdeenGrab a coffee and something to eat.Parking can be tight, but I can normally get parked.It's a mcdonalds, so don't expect anything else.PS. To avoid Dundee, instead of going back on the A90, you can take the back road the A94 through Glamis and avoid the traffic through Dundee. Most of the road is 60mph without any traffic. So it can make a change to battleing through Dundee.

This McDonalds used to be excellent, the service was wonderful and the food good as far as fast food goes. Sadly now there is a lack of customer service, constant mistakes in drive through orders and the food just doesn't keep up with it past quality. As far as McDonalds goes this place needs a real shake. If we fancy a McDonalds now we tend to drive into Dundee Camperdown Park or go to Burger King.

As a great fan of the McDonald's I popped into this one off the A90 at Forfar.Having ordered the Mcchicken sandwich meal it should have been named the Mclettuce meal as their was far to much lettuce and the fries were what I could only describe as luke warm just a horrible meal altogether very disappointed won't be back at this one.

Not good, but then, I never go to these places usually. Was an exception to every rule that I visited. Had a McMuffin thingy and won't probably ever visit any McDonald's again......enough said.

Like a couple of others I have visited and regretted visiting. If you like very fatty food, quite cold, tasting of additives and chemicals, this is the number one place for you.You can do worse, mainly by licking out old toilet bowls, but you would be better going hungry really.

I have a breakfast there at least once a week, the bacon roll meal does for me with the brown sauce, greasy tatty fritter thingy, and superb, fresh cappucino.

A typical McD's restaurant. Clean and service is swift. Can get very busy with people travelling on the main Aberdeen-Dundee road which is nearby. Avoid late afternoon on Saturdays and Sundays when football junior teams are travelling home!

Like an earlier reviewer, Ian G, I was astonished and very angry to receive a £100 fine for outstaying my welcome at this branch of Macdonald's. I'm not really a fan of Macdonald's anyway. The service at this branch wasn't bad but I always think Macdonald's food is uninteresting and over priced. OK for children, which is why I met a friend and his daughter there. Like Ian G I wont be paying the fine, I complained to UKPC and to to the British Parking Association who are looking into my complaints that UKPC's warning signs are grossly inadequate, and the charges have been dropped. I wont be going to Macdonald's again, unless it is to photograph UKPC's warning signs, why go to a restaurant where they make their customers feel unwelcome?

I've visited this branch of McDonalds many times over the years, the service and food are pretty much what you would expect from this well established chain.The real shock for me came 2 weeks after my visit when the postman delivered a demand for £100 as I had stayed in the restaurant, with my car parked outside, for more than 90 minutes. The staff had asked me for my registration number so that there wouldn't be an issue with UKPC (UK Parking Control LTD) who are the agents who send out these fake parking fines but they are claiming that the staff didn't record my details.In any event I have to wonder what kind of marketing genius at McDonalds thought this one up as it can only alienate customers. You'd think they'd want to encourage folk to stay longer and spend more but obviously this is not the case.McDonalds Customer services promised me a manager would call me back, that was three days ago, nobody called. E-mailing customer services is a waste of time too as they don't reply.I've spent an awful lot of money at McDonalds over the years but, sad to say, I've eaten my last sausage mcmuffin I won't be giving them another penny and I'm not paying the fine either.

Poor poor poor poorThe staff at McDonald's Forfar were more interested in making a point of giving me attitude as I didn't want a 5p paper bag than serving me warm food or in fact even the right order. Topped off by the fact that my daughter didn't receive her fruit shoot with her happy meal (try explaining that to a toddler) The whole experience has left me with no intention of ever visiting Forfar McDonald's again Concentrate more ON YOUR JOB MCDONALDS FORFAR STAFF than the attitude towards those that don't wish to pay 5p for a paper bag WHICH GETS RECYCLED ANYWAY

Popped in around 3pm, the restaurant was steady......but there were the 2 floor hosts hanging Halloween decorations when there were several dirty tables and an over flowing dustbin at the main sauce bar. No ice cream either and no explanation as to why :( the toilets weren't much better the soap dispenser was hanging off the walk.

A local branch to where I stay but I do visit from time to time. This is a small, but very popular branch of McDonalds situated next to the A90 Forfar Bypass which picks up a lot of passing trade and customers. Sometimes I think that this branch isn't big enough for the customers it gets - from cars, caravans to lorries to coach loads of people! When I do go in, its always busy and there is always a good selection of meals to choose from. Sometimes I do find I have to wait for my food to be made up, but this only seems to be the case when they are very busy.They have a drive-thru facility, as well as outdoor seating, free wifi, oh and its now open 24/7.A great wee branch that is very popular :)
