Terrible service. Went through the drive thru and was told to wait in the car park. Waited nearly 30 minutes and ended up speaking to the manager. Other cars who arrived after me were serviced before me. Worse service I've ever had at a fast food restaurant. Would have been quicker to cook it myself.

Given ice cold food, thrown in a bag! asked for it to be replaced and apparently it's against there policy. No offer of a refund either utter shambles, no customer service and a horrid unprofessional manager..what a waste of 20 quid!

Popped in here as I'd just been to argos waited ages for food to arrive, went and sat in car to enjoy ( ha ha ) fries were lukewarm and burger was just cold, absolutely disgusting!! Instead of throwing the food in the bin I might aswell have just thrown the money in there and saved myself all that time.

Nothing but a meeting place for foul-mouthed, disrespectful youths taking up what little seating space there is, cradling two smoothies between the ten of them that have been the only purchases they made in the 30mins we had the misfortune to be there- and they were in before us and still there when we left. Four of them then took over the gents toilet and came out ten minutes later with a "wet floor" cone which they then placed on the table and cracked jokes about their daring-do,s Pathetic management. Reported this behaviour on the way out and I might as well have been invisible. Our 9yr old grandaughter likes her happy-meal and we were quietly surprised when she said"mum and dad never come in to eat"... Yup...now I can see why. Its quite plain that adults with small children are,nt welcome inside these places . NOOOO I hear MaCDonalds senior management screaming. Put it this way, None of MY family will be using the eating area again and we may well opt for the other option that sells chicken, and a lot more mature clientel.

Never again! Have eaten here for years , and the food as with all McDonald’s is excellent. But to queue in a relatively quiet restaurant with my 7 year old boy while ‘delivery’ orders are prioritised, and then to have to try to protect my my boy as we walk outside past the ‘delivery’ drivers who were fist fighting with each other in a massive argument. I will never EVER visit McDonald’s Ebbw Vale again.

Just don’t bother!! The staff in this particular restaurant are awful! They are so rude and unhelpful, I’ve never ever come across people that work in public that treat people this way. 5 times in the last few weeks I’ve ordered and every single time without fail they mess the order up! Phone them up and they basically say it’s not their problem!!!! How can it not be your problem? Unbelievable. Also it’s supposed to be a 24 hour restaurant. I start work at 4am. Most mornings I try and get a coffee from there and they put big dirty biffa bins across the entrance to stop people going in!! These bins stay there for several hours! Why advertise a 24 hour restaurant that’s not gonna be open 24 hours?

Pretty diabolical. Food not of the quality which you come to expect from McDonalds. Terrible portion sizes of fries. You don’t expect to be hard done by by a large company, but this restaurant really takes the biscuit.

The traffic queue extends back onto the main road into Ebbw Vale regularly blocking vehicle access to the adjacent Aldi. Car park is far too small meaning users often park in Aldi instead blocking the car park for shoppers.

Designed so that patrons wishing to "drive through" can't see the queue of traffic before entering line. Last time I visited, 15 minute wait to get to service window then further 5 minutes waiting for food to be prepared. Flat cheesy bacon was cold when it arrived. Not recommended.

From the start of the visit it was disappointing. A guy greeted us at the door but made no attempt to show us to the table. We found one ourselves and waited for 20 minutes before anyone came. When they did, they didn’t bring a wine list and asked us to leave! After some discussion we were taken to the counter where a selection of “meals” where displayed in photo form. When in Rome, I indicated our meal choice with a series of hand gestures and grunts and was rewarded with 2 brown bags, contents to be examined. We exited the restaurant with our bags and in the comfort of our vehicle examined the contents of the bags. The contents bore little resemblance to the photos but the “food” was at least hot.

I love my fast food, McDonalds, Burger King you name it. But McDonald's in Ebbw Vale is proberbly one of the worst. The food is normally cold and chips overcooked. Staff are grumpy and always standing around talking. I had a Quater Pounder with only Cheese Large Meal last time I went. I was given cold fries, a normal quater pounder and a normal coke (I asked for diet). I used the drive-thru I then had to park up and take my order into the desk (Not the first time this has happened in the past in McDonald's Ebbw Vale) I then had to wait for my order to be cooked fresh wich took 25 minutes. Also the McFlurry's in Ebbw Vale are nore expensive. Ebbw Vale charges £1.20 for McFrlurry's where other McDonalds charge 99p

I visited during a busy lunchtime, however it seemed like nobody knew what to do! The staff seemed to hang about in the kitchen area panicking and no one was attending to customers or serving!! When they finally decided to serve there was no apology for their incompetence or even any humanity to their approach; rushed and came across to be quite rude. The lady who served me didn't know how to use the till and failed to ask if I was eating in or not and also forgot to offer an sauces with my meal. The meal itself was cold and also wrong, I ordered a crispy chicken wrap- I revived a cold grilled one! Was not happy with my experience at this McDonalds. I will not be visiting again, complete disaster!

This is a run of the mill McDonalds and the food is as it should be. The staff on duty when i visited on Saturday evening were very good, when some youngsters were getting a bit boisterous the staff member immediately dealt with them in a friendly but firm manner. This restaurant looked clean and tidy. My only negative is that the surrounding outside area is strewn with litter on the road side verge which makes the restaurant look shabby and uninviting from the road i think the litter should be addressed to improve the look of the place.

First time here today and the very small car park was full so parked in the supermarket car park right next door. It is also very small inside and we had the last vacant table. Had quite a queue but got served after a few minutes. The food is typical of Mcdonalds which I am happy with but it wasn't as hot as usual and my daughter left most of her fries as they were stone cold by the time she ate her burger.

Typical Mcdonalds restaurant. Good location, car park area is small and drive through can get busy at certain times of the day. Service is usually quick and standard of food varies, sometimes the food isn't as hot as it could be and the amount you get also varies, sometimes the chip boxes are full to the brim and other times they are scant. Overall a typical Mcdonalds and you get what you pay for.
