Went there just as they were closing, and they didn’t have any hot coffee or strawberry pies, but the worker there made it right for us. Good service, 10/10 would recommend.

Went through drive through dueinf lunch hour, and was asked to pull forward into spot 4 to wait for the food. Once parked i realized I didn't ask for any sauce and was a little bummed I wouldn't have dipping sauce for my fries. I was so pleasantly surprised that they brought a tray with a bunch of sauces as options with my food!! How amazing was that?!! Never had a McDonald's offer sauces like that when they brought out the food. Thank you!!

Drive through never stopped moving. Frys were perfect and full. Sandwitch was a bit old. But made well and cheese was melted.

Met our expectations for McDonalds. Drive through was a little backed up but we got through in under 5 minutes. Food was as expected.
