We are visiting Alaska and couldn't leave without trying the Denali burger. They had plenty of parking and I did notice most people did carry out or drive through, but didn't think much about it. Due to the snow there was a bit of mud by the entrance but nothing major. The food came out pretty quick and we went upstairs. This location is INVADED by homeless... be aware that there will be homeless everywhere inside. I decided to eat and leave, but should've just eaten in the car. While we ate, a group of about 4 homeless came upstairs and decided to start doing drugs right there and then. Where's the manager you may wonder. The manager was doing an interview 1 table away from the group of homeless doing drugs. I am not from around here and didn't know that is normal here since nobody seemed to be surprised. My bf freaked out and told me to hurry up. As we walked down the stairs, there was a puddle of pee and drops of blood... I am pretty sure that was from the group of homeless because it was t there when we went up. Word of advice, do not dine in! read more

The service was horrible today. If I could zero stars I would. We were in line for 20 minutes, and another 10 minutes at the payout. So.ething wasn't working. I called and ask to speak with a manager about the the milk that burned me, the wait and the cold food. A boy said he was a manager, and was very disrespectful. His bad attitudeexcalted really quick. Are we not allowed to talk to a manger about our concerns? I asked for the manager again, he said to call back. I called a few more times, he didn't say anything and hung up. His behavior was very disrespectful. I hope the manager see this. He doesn't deserve to be qorking in customer service, especially if hes a manager and is very disrespectful. read more

The only positive thing I can say about this location is they don't screw up your orders. Over the last few years, the quality of service here has diminished the location is very uninviting. The last few times I've had a French fry attack, I've gone inside to order and waited 10 minutes or longer. Here's a list of the negatives: -vagrants and addicts everywhere -extremely uncomfortable, uninviting location (compared to other McDs) -high staff turn over (there used to be some great regular here- no more!) -EXTREMELY long wait times by fast food standards (both inside and drive thru) -shit service in general -stupid touch screens and no one manning the counter read more

Saltier fries, staff needs to open their ears when people are ordering drive thru, and they need to stop half-assing their job even if it's 2:00 in the morning read more

My food is physically making me sick even after I took it back the oil that they cooked. The chicken strips in was old. The first round of chicken strips they gave me were once and I've been sitting for hours. They had to been because they were stale and just completely tough. You couldn't even bite into it like it was so disgusting and then when they gave me a second round, dude I've never these chicken strips were amazing like that's usually what I get cooked properly. This place was usually one of my favorite places to go late at night cause I drive Lyft late at night. The service was awful. It was just it wasn't how it used to be people smiling you know just a better atmosphere this atmosphere was completely just didn't care didn't care about the quality of food. They were putting out the quality of customer service they were giving I was completely disappointed and you know we work hard for our money and if we trust an establishment to go and eat and they just give us shitty food it's online and what sucks is that nothing's gonna be done about this and I haven't been to McDonald's in a long time because of it I mean, I just won't go to that store anymore and more more people that I talk to you aren't going to that store anymore. I mean, I doubt it'll lose business cause it's the only place it's open late at night, but the fact that they know that and give such poor quality of service is very sad read more

1 Star I'm honestly disgusted and concerned after my visit here. I came in expecting a quick bite, but what I saw made me lose my appetite entirely. First off, the cleanliness of this place is horrible. Employees were coughing openly, not washing their hands, and still handling food like it was no big deal. One person literally spit in the trash and then went right back to prepping food without even rinsing their hands. It was so unsanitary, I felt sick just watching it. Things got worse when I had to use the restroom. It smelled awful, but what really disturbed me was overhearing employees talking and laughing about wiping nasty things on the toilet seat on purpose. It was clearly aimed at someone, and honestly, it felt like I was witnessing some kind of harassment or bullying happening right there in the workplace. This place is a lawsuit waiting to happen. Not only are they violating basic food safety, but the behavior is flat-out inhumane. I'm shocked the management allows this kind of environment to exist. I won't be coming back, and I'll be reporting this to the health department. No one should be working--or eating--under these conditions. read more

So I got into alaska around 1am. My friend picked me up and I said I'm starving since my last meal was in Seattle. So we came here through the drive in. I was so happy to see they was opened and I ordered the quarter ponder with cheese n large fry with McNuggets. By the time I got to my condo the food was still warm and still very good. Now of course I was starving but it sure it the spot. I do remember the service was spot on and the food was actually delicious read more

Maybe I just got lucky, but this is the best McDonald's, BY FAR that I've been to in Alaska. Why? They had both drive-throughs open and it was extremely fast. It was probably less than 2 minutes from the time we ordered to the time we got our breakfast sandwiches. It was Easter Morning (R) so maybe they beefed up staffing for the Christian Zombie Holiday though? Maybe it was a fluke, but we were really impressed. read more

I asked for a cup of ice and received a small cup of ice halfway full. They charged me $1.50 which is the price of a medium or large drink. They could have at least filled the cup all the way especially after making me pay for ice. Ridiculous. Have never liked this mcdonald's. Rarely ever had a good experience at this location. read more

McDonald's - Fast Food Near Me - Anchorage, Alaska

I get it. The restaurant is extremely busy this time of night. But only one drive-through lane is open and a bunch of us are here to pick up DoorDash orders. We can see the orders sitting inside the window of the closed drive-through, but the employees won't give us the food. I understand that they are understaffed, but they shouldn't be accepting DoorDash orders if they are going to make us wait 20 minutes. read more

McDonalds drive-thru line. Fast to order and pick up. Both people were friendly. They got our order right. The fries were hot, which is the best!!! Everything was still warm when we ate it. Hit the spot. This is why McDonalds is in business! Can't comment on ambiance bc we didn't go inside. I am visiting Alaska so it was neat to see Denali Mac on the menu. That isn't something you can get outside of Alaska. Ended up getting Filet O'Fish with fries and a Coke. Everything was delicious. read more

I come through this drive-thru 2 days a week to get a Large soda on my way to work. That is all I want, the $1.50 large soda. I don't know why but during rush time for breakfast and lunch they only have one drive thru open. They don't appear to utilize the "pull ahead" while we make your insanely large order that holds everyone else up concept. Always friendly service at the windows - just not convenient for a quick drive thru place. read more

One of a few places in Anchorage open for late night bite. We went through drive through (took a while) and got some cheeseburgers + bottled water. The food was what you'd expect at McDonald's. They didn't have bottled water in the end and I wish they mentioned that while we were ordering. All in all, glad we got something to eat after our flight but it was meh. read more

We went in today and waited a while. We ordered #5 chicken nugget meal, the person taking our order interrupted us twice- "hold on" which we get. Some people can't process information that quickly. So after we confirmed that I wanted we ordered a happy meal with Dr Pepper. Which we had to state twice. We pay and get our meal only for them to charge us for 10 nuggets and a happy meal. How the f does this happen? Managers don't know how to manage and it clearly shows. read more

I tried to have lunch with my 2 year old on a Thursday afternoon. We ordered our food and went to sit down to eat. The upstairs was l closed and all on the tables were taken down stairs where there is only like 8 tables or less. Several had 1 person at them with all kinds of bags and most didn't even have food. When I asked for a to go bag because there was know place to sit a manager Just handed me a bag. read more

I went through the drive-through with a blind person, they use their debit card. Later the debit card was missing and we had to backtrack to find out what happened to it. Manager Kia spent about 30 minutes of her time searching the lost and found and videotapes. manager at the Tudor Rd location was able to tell me that we did receive the card back in the videotape. She spent a good amount of time helping us with this problem and I appreciate it. read more

After a long day tired and hungry, I ordered from my app, although they were very busy my order was prompt fresh and hot. Good service here. But so use app to avoid long drive thru lines read more

Ordered a sprite and it tasted like seltzer water, no syrup added :( and when I asked for a new one , they said they were out - so they didn't notice the first time around their sprite was running low? Good thing I drank it right away instead of going home and THEN finding out I got a seltzer instead. Choose get an Orange Hi-C instead, bummer read more

So, it's a McDonald's, but one that has been here for many years. In fact, as a teen this would be a hit up spot before cruising the strip on Friday and Saturday nights. If you've grown up in Anchorage in the 90s you know what it means to cruise the strip. Now, it's a poorly laid out fast food joint, where the drive thru lanes are willy nilly around the parking lot. Came in for a cup of joe for the pop. Any size is $1, and choco chip cookies are 3/$1. Nice people at the register, but when we tried to pull out of the parking spot we were boxed in by people behind us trying to go through the drive thru lane on the south side of the joint. Inside isn't terrible, but it's gone through so many renovations over the years, it's like pick a lane people. May come again if my pop wants cheap coffee on the go. read more

Lobby is still closed? The pandemic is over, it's so 1999. Wow. I guess the only option is the long drive thru line.

Food was NASTY. My burger patty was disgusting, (I had the double quarter pounder meal). Staff is absent minded. Had a new cashier with helper. He asked card or cash kind of rudely, I asked him "how much"? No polite greeting. A Young Asian lady besides him was useless and didn't help him much. As I waited for my food the Manager walked gy a couple of times, never even asked if I needed assistance or gave a smile and seemed rather put out that I bothered to ask her a question. WELL NEVER EAT HERE AGAIN. NO, I DON'T WANT FREE FOOOD. THX read more

Please make sure you double check your sandwiches before taking off because these employees don't care about what is being requested on the receipt & it's obvious look at all the wrong orders that people reviewed on. I'm allergic to cheese so I requested NO Cheese, No Sausage, sub with REGULAR BACON & I got everything I didn't ask for. I called @9:10am 04-5-22, they wanted me to drive back but I was already on the other side of town by then. plus that's a waste of gas. How is it hard to do the job correct so us customers don't have to waste gas driving back because of an employees mess up? Luckily I looked at my sandwich before taking a bite because I would be in the hospital right now, not being able to go to work the time I was scheduled due to an allergic reaction. I've never had this problem! You go through a drive through, sitting there having the gas running, paying McDonald's, then heading off just to see that what you paid for isn't what was given to you. A lot of customers had this same problem this morning, orders all wrong; people having to drive back then wait in a line again that could've been prevented! Plus their chicken nuggets, French fry's tasted stale, like it was a batch from yesterday or the day before. This northern lights blvd location isn't recommended! read more

I dont even know whhbim wasting my time writing this... this is the biggest B.S. I've ever been to 2 drive thrus opposite sides of the building. Get in line wait 15 mins to be told "DOOR DASH ONLY". EXCUSE ME FOR NOT KNOWING. maybe put a sign up. People dont just know witch lane. Was told if I wanted to order to go around and wait another 15mins. Naw I'm good I'll leave. read more

false advertising on their menu boards. they show a picture of a breakfast burrito meal with a glass of orange juice next to it but it doesn't come with orange juice you have to pay extra and it's already $8.20 read more

So what's wrong with this picture. We go to McDonalds Drive-thru, to get our son a late night snack. This is where the problems start. 1. They tell us "cash only". 2. No code from their app. 3. So we get to the window, and come to find out what we ordered we were told $27.95 We thought maybe since the guy had a heavy accent that maybe we miss heard him. We asked again, $27.95. That was 2 large fries, lg sweet tea, lg frappe, and 2 McDoubles + bacon. They wanted $5.50 per burger. For a burger that costs $3.10 adding bacon costs $2.40. The really messed up part is their website says bacon is $2.00 I think they are scamming everyone. The McDonalds app says they are closed but the Line is wrapped around the building. I think they are pocketing the money and hising it from corporate. This happens every night there. To whom ever owns that McDonald's on arctic & no. Lites in Anchorage should be look at carefully. You officially suck. I hope the IRS has fun fucking you hard read more

late night cravings for fast food and not in a mood to drive fat so tried this McDonald's instead of the one in walmart(which we are not fans of) we were first of all surprised to see the long line in the drive through at 12 AM and this is the first Walmart in Anchorage which served food that tasted like all the other McDonalds in the lower 48. This is going to become our fav McD here now. The staff could do a bit more smiling and hence the 4 stars read more

Bravo Bravo Bravo. I don't know who was in charge of the fryer today (11/29 Sun 3:50pm) but this was by far the best French fries I've ever had in history of eating junk food and destroying my body! 10/10 would order $1 fries and make someone walk out to drop it off to me again. read more

As Tyra Banks, once said, if I could give a zero, I would. But one is the lowest I can give. I understand you work at a fast food restaurant, however, if you hate your job so much, please don't work here. The customer service is an utter tragedy. And by the time you get your food, it is cold and hard. If I had a choice between dumpster diving for a meal and going here again, I would choose dumpster diving. read more

A poor McDonald's for all the normal reasons. Slow service, lots of people and lines, and a lot of homeless just hanging out smelling bad. It's hard to eat with an overwhelming body odor swirling around from four different homeless people glaring at you and begging for your salty fries with their eyes. On the plus side, the employee teenagers were very nice and the location does sport two drive throughs so it has that going for it. read more

I was just highly disappointed by this establishment, again. When the new crispy chicken sandwich came out, the first one was delicious. The other 4 times I have been served a box of thrown together garbage. I am almost sure the first one had tomato. Of course that was the only one that did. The sandwich is now a grisly Greasy piece of garbage with a big glob of mayo, and one time they even got some of it on the bun. It looked like they stood across the room and threw the lettuce in the box. A little bit of that also accidentally got on the sandwich. And to top it all off the number on the receipt supposedly to the store is a dud. I think it is very sad how fast food is taking advantage of the fact that they can throw whatever kinda crap they want at you and there is not a thing in the world you can do about it. On the bright side my fries were hot. Which really had me thinking there was hope for my sandwich. But disappointed again. I will never eat here again and I would not recommend this store to anyone. read more

I don't care much for McDonald's food but i do have a 6 year old great niece so i go about once a month at a minimum for a happy meal. This location used to be excellent. I don't know what has happened over the past couple of months. The service has changed and the food seems worse. I know how ludicrous it seems to be complaining about McDonald's food but it is worse now Most egregious of all is they stopped their dipped cones. Of course I'm assuming that is a corporate decision rather than this location. read more

Oh look, it's a McDonald's. It's newer looking than some other area locations. It has two drive-thrus - one on each side of the building. Food is the same as every other McD's. Drive-thru goes decently quick. No orders have been screwed up. So it's a-ok by McD's standards. read more

The location is convenient since it's a walking distance from my house but sometimes the food i get is either very cold or missing. The workers are ok but not that bad. I did have my own rude experiences but not to the point of me calling for mgr... i come here and order my favorite which is the 20 piece chicken mcnuggets and the thing i dislike is when my sauce is missing even though they're the one who asks me if i want some sauce. Other than that, it's an ok place... read more

Wow. Been here a good amount and normally they're pretty swell. But I came to order literally one thing. It took 10 seconds to order and I was the only one in line, and I've been waiting 20-25 minutes now??! 15 minutes ago the dude at the window mumbled something at me once, I said "I'm sorry say that again." He mumbled again, and I repeated "I'm sorry I don't understand you, what did you say?". A THIRD TIME this dude says something I can't understand followed by him pointing and I could barely understand "please wait" in his slurred sentence. So I pulled up next to the building about 10 to 15 feet forward in no exact marked location, hoping that I was in the right spot and that my food would eventually come. Dude finally walks out whistling lackadaisically, hands me my food and says nothing and then walks away before I can even confirm if this is the right food or not. At least 10 people past me before I got my food. Honestly, I'll probably be back. But this one experience deserves the lowest review I can give it. ONE SANDWICH. Next time they ask me pull up, I will refuse. read more

I have order from them every time and each time they have messed up my order and don't get all of my order. It's it's slow business and every time I'm there the Oder is mess up cause they didn't do it or I never got it cause they didn't give it to me and now I paid extra for just chicken nuggets and a drink. I'm tire of this and if they aren't going to fix it it's not worth going back to. I'm sick of it. HOW DO YOU FORGET A BURGER that's in the combo!?'!?! Serious I actually want to know read more

Since I reviewed a few other fast food joints I thought I owed it to them as well. It's McDonalds so we all know what to expect as far as their food goes. Anytime I have gone there the staff have been friendly and helpful. The food is always hot and they get the orders out quick. When it comes to service at the fast food chains in this town, McDonalds is in their own class. read more

Wow this location needs security! Or at least an escort through the drive-thru. The food was hot, which is more than I can say for the guys a little further south - the stars were not shining on those guys. If in a hurry and don't have my kids with me, I might come back again, food is okay. read more

I have used McDonald's for breakfast 2000+ times in my life, in the U.S. In 30 different states, in Europe and Canada on multiple occasions. So I think that I have a broad spectrum of comparisons to rank various McDonald's. Anchorage McDonald's are the worst when it comes to a staple of this ubiquitous chain, it is the absolute easiest item to prepare and I do not understand how the management continues to fail over a five year period to not change this. They absolutely ruin every hash brown they make. This is amazing as it is removed from a freezer and placed in a fryer that has a button that is pressed for hash browns, it fries for a prescribed amount of time, a beeper goes off and a person removes the item, salts and serves. In Anchorage they ruined them somewhere in this process. read more

As far as a McDonald's goes, this one is probably one of the better ones in town. It's certainly the busiest, due to being in Midtown. But they're fast, they're fresh and when you're on the go, that's really all that matters. read more

A homeless person threw a chicken nugget at me. Very disappointed. An instant classic!
