McDonald's in Königslutter am Elm

15 minutes waiting time in the mcdrive? What's that supposed to mean?

Here you get the Filet-o-Fish with half slices of cheese... saved in the wrong place in my opinion.

Not particularly clean. Otherwise as you are used to at McDonald's.

Maybe it's the time?! 🤔 - we were there shortly after 11 p.m. and were happy with the nightly snack for the journey back to NRW. Staff was friendly, as staff at McD are 🤷‍♂️ Ambiance, like in every McD. We can't confirm the bad reviews - it's just a McD and not a four star restaurant ☝️😉

The burger is broken, the meat is not salted, there is not enough sauce, the fries are soaked in oil, the cake is practically cold.

Order acceptance takes time (eSystem very slow), from order completion moderately fast.

Burgers are dry, packages are oily.

Dirt, smell and poverty. The toilet with the changing table stinks and there is piss everywhere. shocking

Creepy ! Completely unhygienic staff. Burgers were cold - complaint was not understood - unfortunately there was a language barrier. Toilets like in emerging countries.

MC Donalds, you really need to do something!!! I've never seen such a dirty, littered McDonald's. And the toilets... Completely littered and dirty, no toilet paper and no drying towels at the sink. Absolutely disgusting... Then the ordering machines didn't work properly, the order number. could not be printed out, food for consumption in the restaurant was packed in bags “because there were no more trays”. I've never experienced anything like that in the service sector in Germany. If you can save yourself the visit, you shouldn't. Nobody needs an “experience” like this, especially for the relatively expensive prices.

Right on the highway. Quick, nice staff. 2 levels for different seating options. 4 terminals to order yourself. Unfortunately we had missing or incorrect items in our order at the drive in 1'2' times. Therefore not full marks

There was no mood behind the counter and the food was simply cold. How can you have cold nuggets with this waiting time? Cheeseburger bun was fridge cold and the meat wasn't even loudly warm. The worst golden gull we've ever had.

Not a good McDonald's employee, they don't care, they don't talk to each other and they don't pay attention to the customers. There was a customer in the store before us and they still waited 20 minutes

Nice shop from the outside. Food was sloshed and not really attractive. The store was so clean except the toilets. They were a disaster.

Despite customers being overwhelmed, the checkout at self-service machines is occupied but not ready to offer service. Was my last attempt to buy a coffee at McDo.

Far too few staff, endless waiting times and half of the offerings are sold out. 20 minutes that I won't get back.

I ate there, all of my food was cold and it tasted disgusting and I had a stomach ache and nausea the next day

Absolutely underground, machines didn't work properly (probably touch screen faulty or just dirty, constant crashes, many had these problems, but most of them also had miserable patience), then wanted to order at the counter, instructions from the boss: it won't be done, (Under all S.), quickly get out of the store Probably the right level for many visitors, Unfortunately I'm out of there, even my children realized that it was a bit too extreme

Unfortunately very unclean (floors sticky across the board) and defective (ordering) technology; no table service. Staff friendly, but unfortunately completely overwhelmed. Hygiene between working at the counter and tidying up/cleaning is not understandable.

I was surprised, toilets were clean, service was A1 and otherwise the restaurant was super clean.

Put up a sign that says on December 26th. The opening times have changed (open from 7 a.m.) and just before 8 a.m. they still aren't open... Well Aral took care of us.

Cold chai latte in a paper cup for €4.39. The cup was only half full and it just tasted disgustingly sweet. The entire order was ordered for indoor consumption. I expect to have my donut on a plate and the drinks served in porcelain. When complaining, it was said that you were not understood.

Estimated waiting time, 40 min for a menu, the place where you place the order is blocked, the lady who is Muslim had a panic attack, I hope my food is not wrong.

32 minutes on the drive for 4 cars is way too long. The employees seemed very bored (stood around a lot), but there wasn't enough to say hello or have a good trip. Forgotten a junior bag, a wrong burger, not enough napkins and no straws - all of this in a single order, you have to manage it first. At least the junior bag was brought to the car after being tipped off. We weren't convinced by this franchise store, it could be better.

I waited half an hour for my McSmart menu while other customers who ordered after me had already received their items long ago

The rancidest McDonald's I've seen in recent memory. The staff was hopelessly overwhelmed, the lettuce was in the paper and not in the burger, the employee looked helplessly at the mountains of rubbish at the garbage station and just kept going. All service stations were empty and not refilled, but there were 10 napkins with the meal. Absolutely below the quality of other franchisees.

Very dirty with very few orders and customers and the employees are in no hurry to give your order

Disgusting. Food cold. The floor stuck with every step. Toilets dirty . Just bad. Preferably 0 stars.

Order terminals work poorly, no table service, no napkins, floor sticks, order number display doesn't work either. Better to go to another McDonald's.

Ich war mit 3 Kindern am 16.11.2024 um ca 18:30 Uhr in Ihrem Restaurant in Königslutter – Ochsendorf zum Essen. Leider waren wir mehr als enttäuscht. Nicht nur ich als Erwachsenerer, sondern auch meine Kinder im Alter von 10-13 Jahren. Ihre Mitarbeiter machen einen genervten und überarbeiteten Eindruck. Zu meinen Auffälligkeiten: • Ihr Restaurant war mäßig voll, wurde immer voller da keine Waren wirklich raus gingen • In der Wärmezone stapelten sich die Speisen, es wurden immer mehr. • Die Wärmezone war unaufgeräumt, die Verpackungen gingen auf, es sah auf wie auf einem Abfallplatz • Ein Mitarbeiter beauftragte einen anderen Mitarbeiter einen großen Müllbeutel zu holen. Viele der Speisen aus der Warmhaltezone wurden entsorgt. Ihre Nachhaltigkeit gleich null. • Ein Mitarbeiter fragte einen anderen Mitarbeiter nach seinem Namen -> von Team / Teamgeist nichts zu spüren. • Wir hatten Bestellt: 2x 20 Chicken; 1x McRib; 1x Mc Chicken; 2x Hamburger Royal Menue’s; 1x Hamburger • Pommes und McRib waren warm, der Rest kalt • Den McRib haben wir an Ort und Stelle bei der Übernahem der Speisen zurück gegeben, der wurde uns frisch an den Platz geliefert Wir haben für uns beschlossen, Mc Donalds nicht mehr zu besuchen. Wir haben ca 50€ bezahlt und bekamen kalte waren nach eine Wartezeit von ca. 35 min. Für uns nicht akzeptabel. Leider wurde das gewünschte Erlebnis der Kinder enttäuscht.

I had dinner with 3 children in your restaurant in Königslutter - Ochsendorf on November 16th, 2024 at around 6:30 p.m. Unfortunately we were more than disappointed. Not just me as an adult, but also my children aged 10-13. Your employees seem annoyed and overworked. About my abnormalities: • Your restaurant was moderately full, getting more and more crowded as no goods were actually going out • The food was piling up in the warming zone and there were more and more of it. • The warming zone was untidy, the packaging opened, it looked like a garbage dump • An employee asked another employee to get a large trash bag. Much of the food from the warming zone was thrown away. Their sustainability is zero. • An employee asked another employee his name -> there was no sign of team/team spirit. • We ordered: 2x 20 chicken; 1x McRib; 1x Mc Chicken; 2x Hamburger Royal Menue’s; 1x hamburger • Fries and McRib were warm, the rest were cold • We returned the McRib on the spot when we picked up the food; it was delivered fresh to us We have decided not to visit McDonald's anymore. We paid around €50 and got cold goods after a wait of around 35 minutes. Not acceptable for us. Unfortunately, the children's desired experience was disappointed.

It is one of worst, awaiting time plus quality is far from good. Fries raw, burger cold, manager dont know at all what is happening, raising voice on members, kitchen with a lot of waisted food on floor , maybe I wouldn't notice that, if ordered food will come in normal awaiting time. Been twice do to job near by, but im not sure I would come again. Sorry but its been poor for me

Wow, that was absolutely nothing... I usually avoid fast food chains of any kind, but there are times when it's hard to find alternatives. After a long journey (moving) we stopped at the McDonalds Am Mühlenhop for a quick refreshment. The digital ordering terminals were so slow that even redeeming vouchers/coupons via the app was almost impossible. At some point we gave up and sent our order. The order status monitors weren't working and after a longer than average wait we received our forced small order. The staff seemed completely overwhelmed, unmotivated and in a bad mood. Of course the McCafe was not occupied, so we got our coffee (1x small crema, 1x large cappucino) from the machine... unfortunately the cappucino turned into another crema, but we only noticed this in the car on the way. The castles were cold, as was the “chocolate bag”. All in all, an absolute failure and not recommended. Service 6, food 6 - if there was a chance of getting the money back we would have considered it immediately.

Waited 30 minutes for cold fries. Almost all of them have no idea how it works or motivates them. Some guests were very annoyed because of the long waiting times.

Worst coffee in the world. But a good place to take a rest.

Food assembled incorrectly. Chicken limp. Toilets smell on the entire upper floor. Temperature at 8am in the restaurant. Felt like 16 degrees. No enjoyment

Fast food is something different. Emphasis on almost. Poorly organized and aaaes.not everything available at a main meal time

The floor is sticky, the toilets are dirty, the fries were dripping with oil, the burger was sparsely topped and only lukewarm (the fries were hot), the staff seemed completely overwhelmed (but were friendly). Once again a prime example of why you just shouldn't go to McDonald's.🤢

We now know a few branches, this one is by far one of the worst. Overwhelmed staff, dirty restaurant and bad food. We will never eat here again! This branch should be checked urgently.

Very long waiting time at the drive in

At McCafé, coffee is only available in paper or plastic reusable cups. Every gas station is better.

Heating off in November. Cold as hell. Self service counter extremely slow. Broken screen. Not really clean. The headquarters would be happy to check that.

Unfortunately the restaurant was very cold so it wasn't a pleasure to eat there.

Stranded here due to a business trip. The floor is sticky, there is only order and pickup at the counter and it was freezing cold. You don't like to talk about the toilets... but the food was okay!

It all took a very long time for a few coffees that we wanted to drink and it wasn't too busy at the time when we were there

Food was good. Loading also worked well.

We've never had worse coffee. It doesn’t look like coffee at all - the water is like rinsed glasses after coffee. When ordering coffee with caramel, there is not even a hint of caramel.

Not the best restaurant... the food wasn't really warm... like the restaurant itself... with 5 degrees outside it wasn't particularly warm and uncomfortable inside. The store itself clean and tidy. An employee was annoyed because a group ordered a coffee at their table via the app and made this openly known... you shouldn't actually do that... I've had better restaurants...

After waiting 15 minutes in front of the ordering point, we left the queue again without being able to place an order. It was probably too crowded there.

Unfortunately 0 doesn't work. Staff overwhelmed to the max. Display monitors have not been working for weeks. Ice machine permanent status6. disaster

Not only was the food cold, but so was the entire restaurant. Even with a jacket, it was so cold that you just didn't feel comfortable. Food was typical McDonald’s. I found the toilets to be dirty and could definitely use some freshening up.

It was pretty dirty and cold there.

Waited 32 minutes for the food after ordering. Haphazard employees who, instead of processing orders, only move receipts. The trash can behind the café counter was completely overflowing without the counter being occupied. It's questionable how old the garbage was there.

There are always technical problems that make orders and payment processing endless. Waiting time for the food was at least 30 minutes, for the second time in a row. Never again.

Saturday evening, 20 guests in the building. The order was ready quickly, the fries were lukewarm, the hamburger was cold and had been stored for a long time. The upper floor of the building was freezing cold and dirty. Tables not wiped down, trays piled up everywhere, toilet dirty and no one in sight who wanted to change it. Never again

Dirty and smelly toilets, dirty restaurant, long queues, display failure and therefore complete chaos. You order from McCafe and get coffee from the fully automatic machine at the burgers, there is no staff at McCafe and no one can be found. This is misleading the customer.

It doesn't work at all! After waiting for minutes at a checkout, you were informed that orders were only possible via the terminals. However, the cash register was unmanned, so we only received this information when we asked. Unstructured, unfriendly and sad describes it perfectly. The employees seemed very overwhelmed and everyone was running wild. In the end, this visit to McDonald's was the worst experience I've had in terms of food in recent years. Simply underground!!!!!!

Absolutely overwhelmed staff. If you don't get anything, if you've ordered and pressed cash pay, you first have to stand in line for cash payment, where you then wait at least 5 minutes for each order until the cash is collected. So we stood for 20 minutes to pay, when there were still 2 orders in front of us, which was too stupid for my husband and we then left. We then got our food somewhere else. We'll never stop there again.

Today we were there and ate there. It was very, very dirty today. The tablet containers were overflowing, so some customers placed the tablets on the tables. It was clear that the employees were overwhelmed today. The toilets were also not 100% clean and there was no soap.

Forgetting our order first then it takes an hour to make it and even then we don't even give it our all. Gang of good-for-nothings behind the counter!

Disorganised, unsanitary and unfriendly. I would have preferred to give 0 stars, but unfortunately that option is not available. Never experienced anything like this before. Don't stop here. When we arrived at 1 p.m. there were already a lot of people there, but we were there and were hungry, so we started queuing. Then we ordered our food at the outdated ordering kiosks that actually didn't work at all, paid and started waiting. The wait lasted and continued, giving us a lot of time to look at the staff. Never before have I seen such an inept and disorganized gang. They all shuffled around lazily, waiting two at a time at one machine, the manager strolling as if in a daze among his staff and in fact everyone pretended to be busy, but no one actually worked. No drive, no motivation, no organization. Inefficient. In addition, no one was wearing a hairnet or gloves and it looked like some employees had just rolled out of their beds. Finally we got close to our number. At this point it was 1:30 PM and all the numbers around ours had already been played, but suddenly ours disappeared from the screen. After asking, the lady behind the counter looked at our receipt for an exaggerated amount of time, and then bluntly said that she was going to start working on it. Mistake can happen. Then you hope that they will just start processing your order straight away, but fifteen minutes later our burgers and fries were just getting cold and she was scrambling around looking for the rest. After asking if we could take one platter with us, she became angry and said that otherwise she could no longer check it. Then leave it alone. When we complained that we had been waiting for more than 45 minutes and that everything was getting cold, she said we should have eaten somewhere else. Eventually the lady was ready and we could take our order with us. Incomplete, cold and an hour after arrival. There was no longer any question of 'fast' food. I didn't know there was such a difference at McDonalds branches, but this one should be closed permanently as far as I'm concerned. So sorry we stopped here.

Worst Mcdonalds BY FAR. An abomination for the brand and all of fast food. We waited 45 minutes for an incomplete order of cold burgers and sloppy fries. The staff was lazy. unorganized and worst of all, rude. Never going back again, NEVER.

Never seen such a bunch of lazy, disinterested, poorly managed McDonald's employees in my entire life. Had to wait 1 hour! Not normal

Toilets very dirty, generally not very clean, I expect more, especially when it's only 8.30am.

Everything was ok except for the toilets, they weren't that big, otherwise everything was ok. There was no sign indicating that you can also use the cash register at the counter to place your order, so people are queuing up in front of the 2 ordering machines that can be used from both sides... .

Incredibly dirty. There is no soap in the toilets, the hygiene bucket right next to the toilet is brown stained with leftovers from previous guests. It's just disgusting. The staff is normally friendly and moderately motivated.

Mega disinterested staff. I'm standing right at the counter and no employee, even though they're standing right in front of me, feels compelled to ask what I want

You can stop briefly for a break and the typical McDonald’s meal on site. There was definitely no tidying up, tables being cleaned or toilets being cleaned.

The store has never been as dirty as it is today. Everything is full of rubbish inside and out. Upstairs, everything is full of toilet paper. Apparently the boss knows. Disaster!!

Absolute disaster!!! Service not available! And eat cold and have to wait forever. The staff is extremely overwhelmed!

Food takes a long time, but then it's cold. Locations very dirty.

Completely uncoordinated staff, incompetent.

Very dirty house (tables, chairs and plumbing 😪) The food here wasn't of good quality either = fries were cold and the cheeseburgers were fried for too long The Cola without ice was TOP

Very dirty, unfriendly staff, broken ordering machines and you can't order at the front.

Food as usual (apart from a hair in the burger), but the cleanliness is subpar! Toilets uncleaned and disgusting, outside area really dirty, children's playground so run down and dirty that even my children, who are really insensitive, didn't want to play there. If I had read the reviews in advance, I would have been warned. Ordering at the terminal is also underground, I have never experienced a terminal that reacts so slowly. Does anyone in charge actually read the reviews and respond? I'm obviously not the first to find the conditions bad.

The shop is extremely dirty. Here I got the worst McDonald's fries ever. Better drive a little further to another McDonald's.

My not so good rating comes from unclean tables and toilets. Furthermore, the service stands worked very poorly because they were dirty, but the food was great.

It just took 2 working days until I finally had my cheeseburgers. Guy in front of me came in shaved and came out with a full beard. Burgers were made with a lot of hate. The only motivated employee was the man at the french fries counter.

Worst experience in a long time!!! Nothing works, no burgers, no ordering. No information about anything was said. Waiting for hours for a simple "we can't accept orders" I would like to give 0 stars!!!!!!!!

Tables and floors very dirty. You leave the restaurant with a chip stuck under your shoe.

The ordering machine was lagging and there was no table service. Order was incorrect. Fries too crispy. The staff seemed overwhelmed but courteous.

I have traveled the world and visited hundreds, if not thousands, of McDonald's locations, and this one is by far the worst I have ever been to. It was dirty, cold, and the food was far below McDonald's usual standards. A very disappointing experience. It seems like the management deliberately creates an uncomfortable environment to make people leave quickly.

Makłowicz would throw up his hands. I appreciate Polish gastronomy.

You wait forever. The employees are listless and unmotivated. Huge disaster.

I have never seen such a mess anywhere else....

One of the worst McDonald's visits in years This visit was a complete disappointment. I had to wait at the drive-thru counter for over 6 minutes before I could even place my order and was repeatedly told it would take “just a moment”. When I finally got my food, both burgers were cold, the bun was completely dry and the cheese was stuck to the packaging - the waiting time was clearly far too long. The fries were also cold and almost unsalted. It was so bad that I dumped the food in the nearest highway parking lot because I just didn't want to eat it. Truly one of the worst visits to McDonald’s I have ever experienced.

Lousy coffee McCafe after 8pm. We bought cappuccinos at 8:15pm which were as bad as I've ever had. The McCafe closes after 8 p.m., the coffee from the restaurant is catastrophic but still costs €4...

We were there on October 15, 2026, around 11:30 a.m. We wanted to use the toilet and have a coffee. At the entrance door, a guest who was just leaving the restaurant warned us not to touch much. The path from the entrance to the toilet facility on the first floor was so dirty that the soles of our shoes stuck to the floor. Every step made this typical sound. After using the toilet we wanted to order a coffee to go. The “friendly” employee directed us to the digital order stealers in the sales room. Even though there were no other customers at the counter and there were three cash registers, he found himself unable to sell a coffee at the cash register. We then left the McDonalds without coffee! I have rarely seen such poor service and especially such a dirty McDonald's. Never again!

Unfortunately, far too few staff

Cold food, dirt everywhere, sticky floor, long waiting time, dirty toilet. Never again ...

I ate here with my mother and it wasn't particularly crowded. Nevertheless, there were no table number displays. We suspect the staff probably just didn't want to do table service. The young lady at the counter was very nice though. In addition, there were no veggie burgers and milkshakes available, which we thought was a shame. When we asked, we were only told that the machine was broken, but of course we wondered how long it had been like that. It wasn't really clean either, sticky floor, chairs and tables, but that's what you find in most branches. Unfortunately, the fries were cold, but otherwise the food was very tasty. We didn't have to wait long, but those are the only positive points.

Really bad, we were there with our team to take a break and half of us just didn't get any food even though they paid. Some people even couldn't pay at all and when someone got something, the food was cold.

Unfortunately our order had many errors. My burger was wrong, the sauces we ordered were missing and despite the fact that extra books were selected for the HappyMeal, we got the toys. An exchange didn't seem possible... It's a shame.

Staff completely overwhelmed with a few customers. We had to wait forever 👎🏼👎🏼👎🏼

Worst McDonald's ever. Been there twice, cold fries both times (partially frozen the second time) and the wrong drink. We waited forever for everything both times, it had nothing to do with “fast food”. Then you end up standing on each other's feet because of poorly placed self-service terminals in the entrance area. We will not be visiting this store again in the future.

One of many.. OK so far but without a lasting impression.

Waited 25 minutes at Mc Drive. When asked why, well, bad luck, there aren't enough of us... it's always like that. Really bad

You should always start with something positive: nothing was forgotten when we ordered. The food was McDonald's standard and there was enough parking space. There was defective equipment, it took a long time to prepare, and the cleanliness left a lot to be desired. The staff was completely overwhelmed.

The ubiquitous dirt, starting with food preparation equipment, tiles, monitors and toilets. I only decided on mint tea because the mess is terrible, I couldn't eat here 🤮

Bad service, cold food, employees totally overwhelmed when the store wasn't even full. The entire store is dirty, the toilets are a disaster.
