Worst McDonald's we have ever been to. It went into total meltdown when it came to their attention that many customers came on a Saturday night during the high season. More than 100 customers had to leave without having received the food they had paid for as their buses could not wait any longer. We tried to get our money back after 1 hour of waiting with no prospect of when we could get our food. Only after 2 hours of us and lots of other customers yelling and screaming loudly at them did we and a few others manage to get our 76 euros back. It was difficult to even get in touch with the staff as there were hundreds of customers and were frustrated by the situation. So we spent 2 hours from the time we arrived until we left. Without getting our food. But we were one of the lucky few who got our money back, but we had to stand and agitate vigorously to get them right. The vast majority did not have that time for that and just had to go out into their waiting tourist buses hungry and poorer.

An employee dropped 3 burger patties on the (already too dirty) floor and then simply processed them. Really disgusting. Why build an open kitchen where everyone can look in if you deliberately ignore even basic hygiene standards?

I showed the employee the app coupon no. 213 Family Menu for €11.99 and ordered it. He entered everything once and in the end, instead of 11.99, I paid €16.88. To my complaint that it was wrong, he said that he had entered everything correctly. He either didn't understand, or he didn't want to understand, or he just didn't feel like it. I told him several times that it was wrong. I was hungry, had been driving for 12 hours and didn't want to discuss any further I feel betrayed and very irritated It's outrageous

Fries super dry and greasy at the same time?! Until now I've always had the same fries all over the world. That was a premiere! Burger that shouldn't have tomato (checked again in "Extra requests") had tomato on it. Sprite was probably empty of syrup, that can happen. Instead, just mezzo was requested. On the first try I was offered cola with iced tea. Oh well. It worked on the third try. Everything was dirty. Absolutely not recommended.

Attention vegan and vegetarian people!! We ordered the only vegetarian dish (McPlant Nuggets), the burger isn't available, and we got meat nuggets. An outrageous impudence that we unfortunately only noticed when we ate it and compared it with other nuggets. Better eat somewhere else!

So I found it quite creepy here. I live nearby but I don't know if I'll set foot here again. The fries tasted absolutely disgusting, as if they were still raw inside. The burger buns tasted a bit burnt. So I know McDonald's quality differently/better. And you have to do everything yourself. If you don't know your way around these ordering terminals (similar to Deutsche Bahn's ticket machines), you'll initially look like a fool and perhaps embarrass yourself. Thank God I managed it somehow. 😂

My “visit to McDonald’s once a quarter” is usually during/after a trip on the highway. Unfortunately, this branch is underground. No vegetarian offering except plant nuggets.

You've never experienced anything like this before. Food, ice cold, instead of Fanta you get Cola with no straws. No toys in stock and then you have to let the staff talk to you strangely. The tables dirty. The fries lukewarm. At the next table the Monopoly stickers had already been pulled down. The fact that McDonald's doesn't intervene here is a catastrophe. And I won't even get started on hygiene rules in Corona times. And there was nothing going on. No queue, no customers, no mega holiday wave. Pure comedy...

A McDonald's that I probably wouldn't go to again. Cleanliness top Friendliness, no idea, the service doesn't speak to the customer. Only calls numbers. Provision of the goods depends on the fun factor in the kitchen. E.g. Interestingly, the cashier suddenly runs into the kitchen and hits his colleagues. Apparently friendly. The lady who was also “working” there also walked back and forth without a plan. It would have been more important that the food served wasn't scattered wildly in the box because you don't pack a burger upright in a box and something like a cheeseburger would have been completely wrapped in the paper. It would also have been great if the food was hot and not just lukewarm. But there are other branches for that. I will avoid this one and save my money or spend it somewhere else.

Be careful when parking. We ate there and sat there with friends for a long time (over the permitted 2 hours). Since we had ordered food several times, we sat there for a while. Now we got a fine of 40 euros because we exceeded the maximum parking time of 2 hours...absolute disgrace. We sat inside and ate, and I also sent bank statements. Where you can see that we ordered something several times at different times!!!!! Absolute rip off!!!

It's one of the best McDonald's because it's just great. There are lots of tables, there was a game with a screen and the room smells wonderfully of citizens. Unfortunately it was raining outside and my hair got wet, but that's why I deducted one star. Employees a little suspicious. The prices are just like McDonald's. otherwise everything was great.

Maybe in drive. But inside and especially the bathrooms you really have to feel disgusted. There is no service. Your number will be shouted when the order is ready to be picked up. Do this 2-3 times in a row as if you were disturbing. It's a shame about the food because the chicken isn't bad, but for the rest, NEVER AGAIN!
