Customer Review Summary

Friendly staff and quick service are what the happier reviewers single out most, with one describing a relaxed atmosphere and another liking the decor. Delivery earns separate praise, as one customer who only orders online says the food arrives right every time, which they do not expect from McDonald's. Another notes it is the only place nearby open until midnight. Close behind sits a run of complaints about accuracy and pace. One reviewer says nobody seems to know what a plain hamburger is and that calls to the branch go unanswered. One misses the older veggie burger and finds the current vegan option lacking. A drive-through customer found the service super slow, and another says several staff, including management, stood talking while one worker did the work. The sharpest account comes from a late-night drive-through order of a McCrispy with bacon and no lettuce, where the box was marked only mayo, so the bacon was left off and the food was cold.

    “Very clean, friendly staff & quick service. Would definitely visit again if I'm in the area”
  • Staci Watts (unhingedf91)
    “I often visit this branch but apparently a complete order is too much to ask, nobody seems to know what a PLAIN hamburger is and nobody picks up a phone when you call the branch. The customer service is questionable quite a lot of the time. I only really use this branch because I usually order a lot of food and a car is easier.”

    “It's a McDonald's so foods what it is, never going to set the world alight. Loads of staff but only 1 girl actually doing anything productive the rest including management just stood watching and talking”

    “Went through a super slow driver thru...goodness decent but not sure I'd go there again.”

    “We visited here after I picked my son up from Watford train station at around 10pm Sunday evening. We went through the drive through and ordered food as he wanted to take it home. He asked for a McCrispy with bacon but no lettuce. We had driven about 2 miles away from it after getting our order and he opened his McCrispy and it had written on the box, only mayo so there was no bacon either 🤦‍♀️. Do the staff not think to themself why would a customer order and pay for a Mccrispy with bacon meal to not actually want the bacon. Honestly the mind boggles when all my son said was no lettuce in the McCrispy so the guy wrote only mayo 🤦‍♀️. What a waste of money. My food was all cold too but we had to get back home. We won't be going back there anytime soon. It wasn't even busy either.”
