About McDonald's
McDonald's is a fast food restaurant in Halifax, housed in a classic building with pillars at 22/24 Old Market. Customers order from a board rather than over the counter, and the format is walk-in. The menu includes the Big Mac and fries, along with a plant burger and a side salad for those wanting something meatless. The chicken wrap is available in its crispy version only. Seating downstairs is limited, so the room suits shorter stops better than long sit-downs.

Customer Review Summary
Friendly staff and a clean, modern dining room are what reviewers praise most, with one describing a server who wiped a table unasked and another pointing to the classic building with pillars. Nuggets with French fries are called tasty and fresh, and the plant burger with a side salad gets a good word from a vegetarian diner. Close behind are complaints about the food and the wait. Fries are described as dry, anaemic and over salty, a Big Mac as dry and over seasoned, and one reviewer says both took a lifetime to arrive. Another reports flies buzzing around the food, which arrived cold. Delivery draws sharp criticism: one customer says an app order was cancelled after two hours with the payment still taken, and a delivery driver says staff told drivers to take the order and go away. A few miss the grilled chicken wrap, now only crispy, and note thin vegetarian breakfast choices and no sugar-free iced coffee. One reviewer still praises a server who collected their order from the counter.

“Went for a burger after a long day with several drinks taken, so as you can imagine, the food went down a treat. Still wish you could order over the counter rather than using the order board, but apart from that the staff were good and polite, working in a lovely clean, modern environment.”

“Don't lovely staff, lacking any decent vegetarian options especially at breakfast. The plant burger and side salad is good though. Also wanted an ice coffee without sugar not available.”

“Used to really like the grilled chicken wrap. Especially when it was wrap of the day. 🤣. But unfortunately you can now only get the crispy. Which I don’t like. 🤪. But never mind you can’t win them all.”
