HUGE menu. ambiance is interesting because of how huge the place is, but food is good! nothing too crazy but good sandwich spot.

The food was delicious! I went with 3 other guys and they all loved their food and watching sports. We got fish taco, black bean con queso, boneless wings, the Reuben, and pastrami reuben. Fish taco and black bean con queso were so good! Black bean dip was almost perfect except it was a little too cheesy but I managed to finish all and the tortilla chips. The wings were okay. I think buffalo wild wings's wings are better. The reubens were okay. My friends got them because they were on special deal ($5 each i think). Overall, our server was friendly and food was not bad. I would recommend this place! read more

8 min to get seated. ( no line ) 10 min to get a wait staff. One hour and 10 min to get our meal- which was mediocre. Never came in that time to see if we needed another drink. Waiter was rude after I complained. Will never eat there again. read more

Service was awful; the workers lack common sense. We had to search for our servers multiple times and we were the only table. Also the bathrooms reeked of an awful smell and the trash cans were overflowing. Overall a disappointment experience was not pleased read more

The WORST Dining experience I've ever had. This is my second experience here and they have both been awful. The bartender both male and female were absolutely rude and should not be in the industry. If I was a manager they would not have a job. My entire groups food was cold and the service was miserable. 0/10 recommend EVER coming here. read more

We love Macado's, just not the one in Harrisonburg. Virginia Tech, Radford, Lexington, they're all fine, but three times we've tried the Harrisonburg location and they are so severely understaffed that we have left. You have a fine product (in other towns), but we've given up hope here. There were plenty of open tables, one team party, and a handful of servers. We were told there were two cooks and another one was coming in. I'm sure they don't want to overstaff the restaurant, but understaffing will be it's demise. So many people who were waiting gave up and left. I don't know how it remains open. read more

Had an amazing time here with my family! We were new to the area and came in for some lunch. Didn't expect much but ended up loving out experience. The short Asian server we had was so nice and we loved the kickoff martinis he recommended. We will definitely be coming back very often!! read more

We used to love coming to this place. The wait time is terrible now, the servers just look at you while you're waiting for someone to be seated. When we received our food, we had hair in both the salad and the KC Chicken and make and cheese. Unfortunately I can no longer recommend this establishment. read more

Craving a cheeseburger? Go somewhere else. Medium rare is medium well. The buns are cheapness, and not well made. The staff are very sensitive to the slightest criticism of the preparation; they go in the back and cry, they complain to the manager, and they refuse your tip because your comment is taken personally, without consideration for the fact that the comment was about the way the food is cooked, which is not the server's fault. The french fries (from Sysco) are not crisp, not delicious and are not cooked all the way through, because Macado's is about fast service, not great service. Certain things requested for the burger are not included ("the cook musta fergot, the onion and tomoato, 'cause they're like superbusy back there?") read more

Absolutely no service! And there was no business for them to say they were busy. They should go ahead and close. There were four of us, my wife and my parents. The host threw the menus down in a booth, after we requested a table, but never told us that they had any tables or were all booths? Still don't know. After a considerable wait, the waitress finally showed up, and when we asked questions she told us, "she just takes the order and when it comes out asks who got what?" So no answer. My father ordered the Macadoo Flyer. It didn't have any ham on it. We would've complained, but the waitress never showed up again, except to leave the bill, long after everyone had finished. We were never offered refills on our drinks or inquiry's to see if everything was ok? We entertained ourselves since our booth was so close to the front as we watched several guests, show up, wait, then after several minutes of not being waited on, left...then the same scene was repeated time and time again. Personally, this place needs a completely new staff. Speaking of business the men's restroom was filthy. Needed cleaning. I can only imagine what conditions exist in the kitchen. The floors, doors and windows could ALL use a cleaning...filth and deplorable! There's no way a Health Department is doing regular spit checks here! read more

Macado's - An empty restaurant. No business. Wonder why? - Burgers Near Me - Harrisonburg, Virginia

Big sandwiches and OK bar appetizers is the highlight of Macado's. Their potato salad side was not good at all. Service was just ok

My family was in town for a regional baseball tournament. The team headed to Macado's to eat after a game. We wanted to stay together since we were all from out of state. When we walked in (about 30 of us), the host immediately said they couldn't accommodate more than 20. The restaurant was pretty empty at the time. I told her we were fine splitting up by families, we knew we couldn't get anyone to seat us all together. After a quick head count, she informed me that if she sat all of us, we would take up all their open tables. I asked if that would be a problem. She said yes, her manager said she was not allowed to seat us since we didn't call before we came. Then, they told us to leave. read more

Has been a long time since I have been there, so went with a friend. Had a great time, food was excellent - service was very slow, long periods in between seeing her. Over all - was a good experience : ) read more

Waited 10 minutes to even be acknowledged to pick up a to go order. What a waste of money. I ordered a bacon cheeseburger medium well. The roll was stale, the burger was barely cooked and the fries were cold. Wouldn't go back and wouldn't recommend read more

First off we waited over an hour to be seated after they said it would only be 30 minutes. Then the food was bland and not very good. Service was terrible and it wasn't even very busy. read more

Went in at 11am Friday. Place was completely empty, but absolutely filthy. Food and debris all over the floor. We were brought to an obviously filthy table and promptly left. Place had a bad smell, too. Can't imagine the state of the kitchen. Wouldn't recommend. read more

There service is bad they took over an hour to serve my family and the waiter walked by while we had cups empty on the table and didn't even bother to ask if we needed refills WAKE UP. THIS SERVICE IS TRASH. DO BETTER read more

I just tried this place and was very impressed! The service was great and quick, and the food was also good. Everything was hot and fresh. Even the atmosphere of the restaurant was unique! I like how there's something on the menu for everyone here and I will definitely be back to try more! read more

Not sure what the issues are at your Harrisonburg location ... Seems that your always understaffed , no one is EVER at the front door which means you have to wait for a server to seat you which could be awhile .. This is NOT a pandemic issue because this was the case prior.. I have gotten the same sandwich for decade ( Started w/ spankys) and there has never been an issue with the food until today .. the amount of meat that was on it today was very very sparce , is this going to be your new norm ? Very disappointing read more

Glad Harrisonburg finally has a great sandwich dining option. Some locals may think it is same as the old Spanky's downtown but it's not. The brothers split the business and Macado's was always consistent and clean, that is why they are still around and Spanky's is not. I've been eating at Macado's since my undergrad days at VT in the 80's and the Harrisonburg location met my expectations on our first visit a day or two after they opened. My favorites here are the bagel based sandwiches particularly the Dietrich's Delight and the Dr. Watson. Happy Hour specials on food and drinks will make this a busy place after work too. read more

Comfortable place with sports and rock and roll theme. I had a chicken salad with meunster cheese and bacon on croissant. Fresh fruit side, a little melon-heavy. My wife loved her roast beef on croissant. Breads were perfect. I would easily go back. read more

The service here sucks I was told a 15 min wait and have been waiting for over an hour. The girl at the front keeps telling people 20 min wait and it's clearly 2 hrs now. read more

Been here a few times now. Never disappointed. They have a great Bloody Mary bar on Sunday's now. Good drink specials everyday. The food is tasty too. A very extensive sandwich menu. Have yet to choose a sandwich that I didn't like. They do have a sandwich here called the Hindenberg that is great for groups. Yes groups. It serves four and is only 19.95 and if you come in on Mondays it's half price. Definitely worth stopping in for. read more

Macado's - Bar staff is the best! - Burgers Near Me - Harrisonburg, Virginia

Decent -- we waited at bar first and they were great -- but waitress at table just plain rude - she obviously hated her job and was annoyed at everyone and everything. Food wise -- disappointed-- got the Carpetbagger -- the steak was " fake " piece of meat that was cold -- been to several other locations and loved them -- this particular visit was just bad experience read more

Temper your expectations for this local, neighborhood joint serving up dishes such as potato skins, a massive amount of sandwiches, chicken Mac and cheese, and chicken wings. I was in town visiting some friends who live in the area, and had a craving for some chicken wings. My only requirement? That they be served hot. Sadly, Macado's couldn't meet that basic requirement. But let me back up first and start from the beginning. We walked in, and were greeted by a young hostess who seemed like she didn't want to be there, or be talking to us. Oh well, I'm used to it in this area. We were seated, and greeted by our server, who also wasn't friendly. We took time to review the menu, but I knew what I wanted already! 10 Hot wings in a sweet honey bbq sauce with waffle cut sweet potato fries. My friends ordered the fish tacos and one of their many sandwiches. We also ordered beers. First to come out from the kitchen were my fries, and that took forever. The were served piping hot, but I wanted them with my wings, not as an appetizer. Almost 15 minutes later, our food started arriving. As soon as the server pit my plate down in front of me, I knew we were going to have a problem. Not only were the wings some odd and unnatural Orange color, they looked cold. I pushed one with my finger and it was ice cold. I sent the wings back, although the server seemed unbothered that I wasn't satisfied. Didn't apologize, just asked me what I wanted done when I told her that my food was cold. Around 5 minutes later, the new wings came out piping hot. Overall, still just ok. Personally, I wouldn't come back. If I'm ever in the mood for wings again, I'll just got to Buffalo wild Wings across the street. read more

After a long night, I decided to come here with a group of friends for some wings. I've been told that the wings are 34 cents each, which is a preeetty good deal. I went ahead and got the mango habanero and honey bbq wings. It seemed like they were understaffed because the service was really slow. It took long to put our drink orders in..then even longer for the food to come out. When it did come out, it did not meet my expectations. It wasn't cold, but it wasn't hot either. It came with the chips but those were soggy for some reason. It wasn't terrible food but what can you expect for cheap wings? Maybe I'll try out something else from their menu for another go. read more

Love the fries with nacho melted cheese. The chicken cordon boo was good. Service was good.

My family and I stay at The Massanutten Ski resort once a year through a time share so when we are in town we usually come here multiple times that week because of there delicious subs and variety. This year it just wasn't the same. Food wasn't as fresh and good. Both times we came in there was no host at the front door and we had to wait several minutes for someone to acknowledge us with servers walking right past us. What really made me have to yelp my experience is this. My 3 year old son ordered the Mac & cheese for dinner and he ate it. My son who has never thrown up solids did. All night! He woke up throughout the night throwing up Mac & cheese. Needless to say I don't think I'll be returning on our next trip. read more

So I've ordered from here multiple times and I have to say if you live in Harrisonburg and haven't tried this place, you're missing out. My first order I got the barnyard sandwich with chicken bacon and egg sandwich with the banana chocolate croissant dessert and the grande nachos. The nachos were okay and it was cool how they let you put them together yourself, but I'm not a huge cheese wiz fan, however they were still good. The sandwich was absolutely of this world. The egg, bacon, and fried chicken combination was amazing and the chicken was cooked with a perfect crunch. The sweet potato fries were also delicious, and the dessert was insane with the perfect mix of croissant, chocolate, banana, and whipped cream. I've also tried the quesadilla which was really good, the ragtime sandwich with roast beef, bacon, and cheese which was super tender and flavorful, and the Mac and cheese which was average. The prices are pretty cheap considering the size of the sandwiches and there are so many options on the menu. I would definitely recommend eating here if you visit Harrisonburg. read more

This place took forever to get my food out. Waited an entire hour with a group, brought out everyone else's food, and then the check before checking and saying they just started making mine... read more

Shouldn't even be a full star. Was there at 6pm on 6/1/18. Only 4 tables taken. Service was so awful and slow. Bartender was too busy running mouth. Kept running out of drinks including water. No napkins nor utensils. Food was less than mediocre. Too much soggy bread. Hostess did not have any customers come in but just stayed at the desk staring into space while customer were were trying to get her attention to get service. Beautiful interior had potential but horrible service killed it. Will not go back again to that store or any other store. Frank Boyer Mathews Virginia read more

Had to hit this up since several of The Tribe remember Spanky's when it was Downtown. Lots of flair on the walls. Guitars. Pictures. Great music mix going. Cool bar with interesting ceiling fan arrangement. Parking may be an issue when it gets busy. With this being opening day it was a little frantic with the staff but I see the big picture of a Harrisonburg icon in the making. Huge selection of sandwiches. I had the steak quesadilla and it was huge and great tasting. Welcome to The 'Burg. Best of luck to you. read more

Horrible experience. Food took over 45 minutes and 3 items came out cold. Never saw Manager. Server was on her second shift and had no clue. Horrible! read more

first time ever here and it was pretty good. for sure a lot of food options. you should not go hungry or find something that you do not want. give it a shot read more

There are no employees? Well not exactly, there is one waiter, one bartender, one cook(probably the manager). I've visited this restaurant a couple times with always the same result. I wait at the front as directed by the signs, and I have never been served(15-20mns of wait each visit) I always see 10+ people come in and wait and then leave because they aren't being served. read more

People keep dragging me here, and the result is the same each time, they mess up my order, give me attitude because I want what I actually ordered, I end up with some other sub-par abomination. Once I ordered a hot sandwich and it was still frozen inside! Why was their meat frozen?! The place is filthy, they make no effort to clear tables after people leave. One time I had multiple waitresses using the table beside me to drop all the dishes from other sections rather than taking them to the kitchen, and they just sat there. Anyone working in this store has no business working near food, or in public in general. read more

I went to this establishment for supper this evening. I sit at the bar and ask what the specials are. I'm told there is a deal on pints... I order a pint. It comes out extra foamy. I had an ~ok hot dog and order a rum and coke to wash it down. When I get my bill I am shocked to see the pint (which I was told was on special!) was full price. I would never have ordered this gross tasting beer if I would've known it was full price. I was tricked. Also my acquaintance sitting next to me- who ordered more than me- was charged less than I was... I'm appalled and not going back to this place. I would not recommend this place to anyone, unless I don't like that person read more
