This location is not great if you actually want to enjoy your meal. It's a 50/50 for breakfast staff, but the evening staff is garbage. Took 15 mins for a double quarter and a filet of fish. The filet of fish bun was stale when i got it. But the burger was warm. The fact that McDonald's in general won't give you free mayo packets (McChicken sauce) is egregious. But this rating is just for my overall experience at this establishment. Visiting 4 times a week roughly. Not good. Ive tried the northern side and they are much nicer, and better at their jobs.

I go to this restaurant for coffee nearly every day. Alice makes my coffee perfect every morning. If shes the one who hands me my coffee, I know I will enjoy every single sip. Consistent. Every single time.

It's McDonald's. What can you expect. Seems to be more expensive than other locations. But I haven't compared. Nice newfie lady in the morning is always a nice treat!

I went through the Drive Thru recently and ended up paying $140.80 for my $70.40 worth of food. After showing them the transaction had gone through my bank proving I paid, they still had me pay the complete total again in order to receive my food. Luckily we were able to pay, I feel bad for the ones who got ripped off and didn’t have double the amount of the bill to pay to get their food. This is crazy. They said it’s an issue with their machine and that I’d be returned the money after 24 hours, well….its almost 48 hours and I haven’t received my $70.40 back. I will never use this location ever again. I am not the first person to be ripped off by this McDonald’s. I hope the staff or management enjoyed their nice tip or the meals we purchased for employees if that’s what it was used for. Stop scamming your customers. I hope Head office and BBB monitor these reviews.

Whats going on here lately? Have had my order messed up constantly this month. Twice in the last 5 days ive ordered a double quarter from the same person working the drive through, and had the order repeated back to me, yet its rang in as a regular quarter. A few weeks ago on my way to work i stopped for coffee and a muffin and paid at the first window. Then at the second window was told my payment didnt go through so id need to try again. I was sure it went through the first time and was assured i wasnt going to be double charged. But guess what? I was double charged. Do better.

I loved when they came put with these a few years ago I've always got them , this is what I get here at this place. They don't even have orange they use orange juice boxes !!! This was the breakfast burrito it was all dough barely anything else ,

About half way through drinking my iced coffee, noticed a dead bug stuck to the inside of my cup. Looks like a fruit fly on steroids. Absolutely gross. Excellent service every time I go here but that’s nasty.

Always loved mcdonalds, only juat cant justify the prices anymore. May aswell go get a real meal at a restaurant for a few bucks more

November 22, 2024

Jan 2017 - From a guy who worked at this mcdonalds 13 years ago looking at this place now is like watching a regular mcdonalds at half speed. I come here most mornings and usually inside. during peak times people will randomly disappear from there station, or clean tables, bathrooms when you have allready been waiting over 15 minutes for only two coffee. I realize those things have to be done, but not when there is a Line up. Your only half chance of getting through at less then double the regular time is the drive through. I cannot believe that someone from corporate hasnt stepped in yet to straiten this place out.. Maybe Tim Hortons coffee isnt that bad

April 22, 2024

I just went eat here tonight it was disgusting and im sugar coating. I oder poutine which they put the gravy on the fries and than put some old smelly cheese on top. The point of a poutine is to get the gravy on top of the cheese. But literally give me old cheese that spend 3 days on the counter. After i told them they told me was normal and didnt want to exchange it .Extremely rude staff . also i dont know if its me but if take honey instead of bbq sauce for chicken nuggets. Is it normal to get charge for it ???? no condiments or napkin available also. They really dont care about their costumer. Anyway i dont recommend this location unless

Terrible customer service. Went through the drive thru at lunch. I ordered three adult meals and one happy meal, they gave me two adult meals and three happy meals. I told the girl there was a mistake and I needed a full meal not the two additional happy meals. She showed me the receipt, which showed they put one there in place of my full meal. She took the two happy meals back and returned with one happy meal and a full drink. I looked at it and said, this meal is for me ..as in, I need a full meal here she said, sorry about that, have a good day and walked off.

April 22, 2024

Messed up my order got to work called them. They say no problem sir we will replace for you. Do I need receipt? She said no, I write your name down. 3 days later went back to get my meal and the manager would not give it me. Some of the ladys there have been there forever and are great! I Will never return to this location again because of thier ignorant manager.

I went to Macdonalds in Thickwood this afternoon and had one of the great experiences I have had in a restaurant. I ordered through the drive thru and the customer service and kindness of the lady on the drive thru was just amazing. I had to ask her name to recognize her. Her name is Henzel Torramocha. After I had completed the order, my friend asked me for a coffee. When I went to the drive thru, I asked Henzel, if I could order a coffee as well. She greeted me with a nice smile and in a very professional manner. The transaction and the order was very smooth. This lady deserves a raise.

Not going to this place again! They always forget my fries in my meal. Very poor customer service. They need some serious training ( managers and crews )! They did not even genuinely apologized. Thay just hand you the missing fries and turn their back on you! Very rude or maybe they are just scared and dont know how to handle customer complaints.

They are not 24/7 like they advertise. They said they close from 3-4am but many times they are closed before 2:30am. Change your signs to the proper hours or stay open

I ordered on the mcdonalds app and it instructed me to go to this location. Upon arriving I found a worker half asleep and the drive through blocked off, mind you it was 3:20am in the morning. Even though they say open 24/7 I was told to come back later? Should not advertise 24/7 if it is not true. Evidently it is lazy nightshift workers who change everything over for breakfast in the kitchen early before the 3:59am cutoff. Because theyd rather sleep than do their fu<king job. Unbelievable. Customer service is dead. NOTE: I arrived in Fort Mcmurray me and my daughter and we were hungry after a long flight. Should not advertise as open if youre actually closed for business. EDIT: I did receive my food after and o It was fresh. So theres that. Good recovery. Waited 15 minutes for it though. SECOND EDIT: LOCATION IS STILL DOGWATER, GO TO ANY OF THE OTHERS. THEY MESS SOMETHING UP EVERY SINGLE TIME.

Typical McDonalds. Mess up your order all the time. Today they forgot the drinks, fries, didnt mark the coffees . Which would be great as Im a diabetic. So we had to taste test them to find out whats what. I literally had to tell them what they keep forgetting to give me at the counter. They are brutal in store and via skip the dish. ***Update. Still continuing to mess up orders. Today ordered a dbl burger with no pickles and get home to find out its a single burger and has pickles. Kids nuggets without dipping sauce once again. They look so unorganized inside watching them prepare meals. Its embarrassing to see.

December 22, 2023

They always give half full fries and too much ice in the pop to save a dollar. Their paddys are never fresh either. Terrible!

Drive through order - order placing was difficult as employee seemed to not know what she was doing, was unclear as to which window to pay at. Pulled to first window and found no one there. Continued to second window and received the worst attitude from another female employee telling us that the girl was at the first window the whole time. Continued with disrespectful attitude after we explained no one was at the first window and that we stopped and waited before pulling to the second window. Manager came to have us pay and did not acknowledge what had happened at all.
