    I really enjoyed this place and can't wait to go back when I have more time to look around and…read moreenjoy it! Stopped in for a quick browse while travelling and was completely WOWed by the plant selection! I scored a few native plants for the garden and one for inside. There were many plants id never seen before and could definitely see myself spending serious time and dollars here! Check it out if you're on the eastern shore! I might even make a day trip of it one day.

    Homophobic and nasty. Not only is the quality of their plants poor, the condition of the plants…read morewill only get worse as the greenhouse is completely overgrown, pest ridden and entirely too hot for the plants with little to no air circulation. The plant negligence aside- the older gentlemen that owns the run down store is quite homophobic and aggressive about it. Upon PURCHASING a plant that was marked $10.99, he was quick to inform me the price was instead $16.99. He then charged my card twice, gave me a receipt before the transaction was complete and then decided to scoff at me for questioning it. I turned around and decided to return the overpriced plant and go back and get ANOTHER plant of the same size with the other $10.99 price to show this jaded individual how sporadically he has everything priced. Unfortunately before I could prove my point and question his method of entrapping customers and up-charging them at the register, he YELLED at me "you're not welcome back here". To which I calmly ignored him; waited for my refund that never came because their outdated systems and employees aren't capable of such elementary level tasks. I left the store to get my partner, bring him in and have him ask why I was told to leave. The employee changed his attitude real quickly, decided to not look at me whatsoever, told my boyfriend that I was "nasty" for asking a question about prices, and furthered nailing his foot into a coffin by saying he "doesn't like when customers complain". My partner asked if this could possibly be a sexuality thing since we are a gay couple, to which him and the other older lady behind the counter working just laughed. He then again said " you are not welcome here anymore" - essentially solidifying the message. I then called back later after reading the other yelp reviews that clearly describe racist, profiling behavior from the same elderly employee/owner - to which he YELLED back at me on the phone "I have gay friends and I'm not homophobic do not come back here" and again, if you're gay or have a sincere relationship with someone who is, you'd know this is a telltale sign of a homophobic person attempting to dodge the consequences of their bigotry. Please, if you are not cis-gendered, white, straight and wealthy, do not waste your time being harassed here. I have truly never met a more miserable person around so many plants. I guess when they go sour, so do you? Also if that older employee is happening to read this- invest in a good tooth brush and some strong mints!

    I have always loved McDonald's Garden pop ups. The employees are always so helpful and…read moreknowledgeable and if they do not know the answer they will find one of their staff members who may or Google right on the spot which is always appreciated. Every Tuesday is senior Tuesday so they get 10% off. Their flowers and vegetables are always so green and healthy looking. Prices can be a little much but it's hard work keep in the babies alive I assume. They always have sales every week there's something different that's on sale. They have multiple locations throughout the Hampton Roads area and Virginia Beach and Norfolk and Williamsburg. I went to them last year the shop in Poquoson, and found out that they usually close mid July and that's where everything is marked to 50% off so I walked away with a beautiful hibiscus that came up this year so I had to return for more plants. The pop-up shops in parking lots are open March to mid July so plan accordingly. I've also been to the big store in Virginia Beach and it is overwhelming but in a good way I recommend hitting that shop up.

    This is the BEST Garden Center/Nursery I've every visited. McDonald's not only hard a wide range…read moreof plants to select from their customer service was OUTSTANDING. The gentleman that helped me picked out shrubs to enhance my front flowerbed used the sidewalk to display how his recommended shrubs would look based on a picture I showed him of the area. He went above and beyond to meet my desired appearance. What a wonderful experience!!!!!! RECOMMEND McDonald's Garden Center for your shrubbery needs.
