Shocking service initially there were only 4/5 orders on the screen . However I still waited 20 minutes. Nobody appeared to be in charge and eventually there were around 20 people waiting . Everyone seemed to working at a slow pace . Compared to every other Macdonalds I’ve visited , this was my first visit here , the service and response from team members was poor .

The food isn't great (and that's saying something for a McDonalds!). Service is shocking - usually complete chaos. Also, beware. McDonalds have actually SOLD their car park to a company called MET parking services. Now, why would a parking company want to buy what is in effect, a free car park? Because if you stay there more than 90 minutes, you will be hit with a £100 parking charge. McDonalds don't make it clear that if you drive into the car park, you basically have a 90 minute window to sit in their restaurant. Now a lot of people use McDonalds, Starbucks etc as a second office, to catch up on e-mails, make some calls and of course, have some delicious(?) food. Be aware, in this particular location, apart from a tiny, wordy parking sign in the car park, there is nothing in the restaurant to say "If you are parked, you can only stay in here for 90 mins". I wonder how much the franchisee (e-mail: 00406@uk.mcd.com) made in flogging the car park. To conclude, avoid this place like Ebola

“Fast food” but you always have to wait an hour for your food. Every person in the drive through was sent to wait for their food: not exactly fast food … this happens everytime I go old Kent road McDonald’s

I was standing at the till for a very long time waiting for someone to take my order… I said hi hello is someone gonna take my order, the staff at the front told me to order it at the machine as no one wanted to take my order coz they was busy. I said I’m standing here in front of the till and none of the staff wanted to take my order what a joke…and persisted me to go order at the machine, the worse service I’ve ever had in mc ds rude staff very unprofessional plus they still got my order wrong. Staff need a lot more professional training learn about customer service!

I have been here twice and both times I’ve had to deal with staff of such low intelligence that this time I told them to forget it and drove off. Is this really so difficult to comprehend: Me – “Can I have my Big Tasty in a cheeseburger wrapper instead of a box please.?” Employee – “You want a wrap?.” Me – “No, I’d like a Big Tasty, but in a cheeseburger wrapper instead of a box please.” Staff – “So you want a box?” Me – “No, I’d like a Big Tasty, but wrapped in a wrapper, you know like a cheeseburger…” Staff – “So you want a cheese burger?” Me – “Forget it.”

Parking scam. 60 min time limit here instead of the usual 90 locally. They take so long to prepare the food (25-30 mins) that by the time you have parked, ordered and eaten you already have a £100 fine. I did everything as quickly as possible and was still 14 mins over. So my burger cost me £100 extra reduced to £60 if you pay in 14 days. McDonald’s customer services don’t care they claim it is to ensure sufficient parking spaces which is a lie as there are larger car parks adjacent to Asda & B&Q with much more generous limits and an abundance of empty spaces. So if you ever have the misfortune to go here be sure to park in one of those not McDonald’s as they just want to scam you out of £100. McDonald’s should review the parking time limit here but they won’t listen and clearly don’t care about their customers. You have been warned. Avoid!

Sometimes it was good sometimes its bad, whenever we order through My McDonald's app it says that the food was given to us but the food wasn't but then after a few mins it appears. When we ordered through Just Eat we didn't get our order , we waited more than 40mins it kept saying that the food is on our way but it wasn't (We live 5 mins away with a bike) it was unacceptable. The other time we ordered there were no fries ANYWHERE but overall the food is nice, sometimes cold.

Visited today 25.06.22 for breakfast. Ordered at 10.30 arrived to collect at 10.45 sat in the designated collection area until 11.15 and didn't see a single person come outside with food. After speaking to a manager he knew nothing about my order even though I showed him it on the app. I was told to re order from the regular menu as breakfast was done. This restaurant has always had a bad reputation but this is the final straw for me...

The food came out cold and no quality of care as the lettuce and onions were scattered in the box and not on the burger. The taste was very strange like it wasn't beef. I then tried ordering weeks later as I fancy this after a surgery. Couldn't believe the food was messy again and stone cold and taste funny. Health food authorities need to be alerted immediately

What an unpleasant experience!! It started with an endless queue at the drive through.. but that was the minor problem after all. I got a poor service being rushed through the ordering process and then the food… the worst I’ve ever got in a Mc Donald. Fries were cold and soggy. The chicken select were cold too. I ended up having a bite and throwing the rest of it. No salviets in the bag either.. I’ve actually come here other times and didn’t have the best experience. But I guess, after this visit, that will not wast my money there anymore.

I bought large 6 nugget meal and large BigMac meal less than an hour ago from 158 Old Kent Road McDonald’s. The shop was busy so I had to wait for a long time. The lady who served me was rude and abrupt when I asked her for a bag with handles and barbecue sauce. I was embarrassed but did not retaliate. When I got home part of the meals were missing. When I phoned to complain it happened to be the same lady she knew it was me and was also rude to me on the phone when I asked to speak with the manager. She said she was the manager. I couldn’t believe my ears. She said I didn’t let her finish putting the order in the bag before I started speaking to her. She hanged up the phone on me while I was still speaking. I will not be going back to that branch again

All through the lockdown my wife and I have been isolating and not venturing out anywhere after several months the urge for a Big Mac was just too much and we popped down the old Kent road for a wonderful Big Mac and fries unfortunately I wished we had stayed at home we bought and paid for the meals and parked in the car park to eat so the time from purchase to actually eating was minimal unfortunately the burgers were luke warm and made the meal not very enjoyable my wife suggested that we take the meal back and complain but in these uncertain times I did not wish to spend time inside the restaurant being in the company of other people as the restaurant was extremely busy with customers and an enormous amount of deliveroo drivers all waiting This has put me off of McDonald’s and I honestly can’t see myself eating this in the future Beware please especially the Old Kent Road branch

Every time I asked staff where my order was they just looked at my receipt and walked off several times, kept preparing orders and leaving them to get cold on the side.

The staff at this McDonald's don't seem to understand the concept of a 'fast food' restaurant. Had to wait almost 15 minutes for my order and when it was served it was cold. Customer service is non-existent so don't expect customer service of any kind....

Have been a couple of times since it has been modernised, the new technology and ordering system works if you are having a meal in, but it doesn't work if you only want a drink to take away.

Had a lovely Sunday roast lunch date at The Roebuck. I opted for the chicken roast dinner and my date opted for the roast beef and we were both satisfied. Lovely roast potatoes, kale, other veggies, Yorkshire pudding and a good lashing of gravy. We were given stellar service by Wonu who checked in on us with lots of smiles and warmth. He had on a cool owl shirt and he was very receptive to my chatting. I found out we went to the same school and lived in the same home state! I hope this review gets to him so he knows he warmed up someone’s day even further. Definitely would recommend as a date spot. Cosy, lovely big windows in the back and solid food.
