Best McDonalds in the city, maybe even the country. I've been to this location many times as it is near a friends house. I am a HUGE (physically and literally) McDonalds fan. I've had many good and bad experiences all around the world and the food quality is always superb at this location. The employees I've had the PLEASURE of interacting with at this location are top tier and rival Chick-fil-a. A job well done. read more

Just used it for the restroom and that was even gross. If you need something to eat, there's plenty of other options on the street so go there read more

I ordered a #7 with honey. He asks me if I want the meal. Um #7 is a meal. Then asks if I want honey mustard. No I said honey. I get to the window she drives me honey mustard. Pop was all carbonated. Two stars cuz food was hot and good. read more

They're now charging for soda refills. Something that already has absurdly high margins and they decide to gouge even deeper. Worse than that, they refuse to honor requests for light ice in a drink. I specifically ordered with light ice because of their "no free refills" signs that they've plastered around the cash registers. Was given a cup that was filled over halfway with ice. Absolutely unacceptable and blatant cash grab. read more

When I was here the men's restroom was unlocked but the women's restroom was locked up. I had to ask an employee to unlock the women's restroom while men went into their restroom freely. Please change this before you wind up with a lawsuit. This is discrimination. It's wrong and needs to be fixed. read more

Well the food was okay it was an okay experience but when me and my family walked on the side walk to look at a nearby store for 2 minutes we come back to see that our car had a bot in it and then these fake parking cops came up to us and told us we had to pay 170 dollars to take of the bot off and the bot looked pretty fake so I knew this was a scam so please be careful of this scam when you eat here read more

I ordered a #9 meal with STEAK egg and cheese bagel and I got the bacon one. Didn't notice I got the wrong thing until I got to work and started eating. No time to go back and exchange it either since I was already at work and was expecting to receive my steak bage read more

Getting into this one is frustrating because if you don't enter from the Clark side, as opposed to the Ashland side, it's awkward getting into the drive-through and much of the parking. But it's one of the closest to my house so when I was living off of their smoothies when I couldn't really stomach much else, I stopped here once or twice. Like most it's open 24 hours. When you're exiting, especially if you exit onto Clark, take care because Andersonville is full of walkers and you'll need to watch out for pedestrians. read more

This place is horrible! After getting our food which was bad, we came out the property for two minutes to see any place we could shop we came back to bring the car we saw these "cops" booting our car! He told us we had to give him 170$ to remove this off brand boot. Never come here! This was the worst experience I've ever had with a restaurant. Never coming back! read more

Rude customer service. Bathrooms are always out of service. No one seems to be in charge. Mary at the register is awful. Thinks she runs the place. I've watched her be so unprofessional with people just asking a question. Thank you for ending any dollars I would have spent in the future. read more

I love this McDonald's location. Drive thru is open 24 hours. Super friendly staff. Good and fast service. Quality McDonald's food preparation. I love the Big Mac, sausage egg and cheese McMuffin, steak egg and cheese bagel, fries, hash browns, hi-C drink, Coke Products, iced coffees, I come for breakfast most of the times. read more

Do NOT waste your time here. This location is FUCKED UP! I try to order from the kiosk, get near the end and it demands a number from a table "tent" that should be stacked next to it. There are NONE. The thing will not let me complete. So I cancel and stand in line to order at the register. And wait, And Wait, And wait. There are workers meandering around in the kitchen, but nobody to take orders. Even after I hollered out. I left. I will not be going back. Got a better meal from a locally owner bar instead. read more

Ordered a hamburger with ketchup and pickles and this is what I received...have been here a few other times and it's nice because they're open late but is sad that you always have to check the order over so much read more

This is a shitty McDonald's the manager is one of the rudest people I've ever met and the staff isn't much better. They are either lazy or don't speak enough English to get a order right very sloppy read more

I go to this McDonald's a lot and today was just one of those days where I had the final straw. I ordered a 6 piece chicken nugget and when I got home there were 3 chocolate chip cookies in the package... I always check my bag before leaving because they usually forget sauces, but I didn't realize I had to check each individual wrapped item now, too. The food is ALWAYS hit or miss here; whether the bun is stale, the burger is room temperature/not fresh, or the fries are over cooked and you can tell they've been sitting out for awhile. If anyone from this location sees this, your management needs to be overlooking the staff here a little more closely to make sure the orders are correct and food is freshly made every time. Sorry for having to leave this review, I just had to bring this to someone's attention. read more

McDonalds - a person holding a box of cookies - Burgers Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

This location is not only questionable with spotty order fulfillment, but also a liability and safety risk to all involved. The signage does not make it clear when they stop accepting mobile orders or in-store orders. So, as other reviewers mentioned, you can place an order or just stop by based on its hours of operation just to find out it is drive-through only. And their store management policies are ridiculous. At one point, they only had one of the two restrooms working. I saw that rather than check to confirm if a bathroom was empty before buzzing people in, they just buzzed people in regardless. read more

They LIE! NO all day breakfast. I went in before noon on Sunday anticipating an egg McMuffin and was told they stop serving breakfast at 11:00 am. Not noon. Not 1:00 pm. But at 11. on a weekend. What happened to the big deal McDonalds had made about breakfast all day?!? So I went somewhere else and had a MUCH better breakfast food for about the same money. Lots of other places in the area. read more

This store always takes your mobile order and money but refuses service . Very disappointing. Terrible management.

****BEWARE- AVOID THIS LOCATION!!*** We stopped to order food to go. The only parking was at one of the mobile pick up spots. The other spots were full or handicap. The signage on the parking says you only have 10 minutes or they boot your car. I figured since we were customers we would be ok. We were ordering through the McD's app and we had a problem with the app and our order. Our hot drinks were cold and there were missing items. It took longer than 10 minutes to get our food and when we went outside our car was booted. The booting pirate emerged from a parked vehicle and demanded we pay the $170 fine!! We showed him our receipt with the food in our hands and he even went inside to talk to a manager to either release our car or to see if we were indeed customers. The manager did not care and he told us we were on the hook for the fine!! It was cold and we had our 8 y/o daughter but after some convincing the pirate had a change of heart and released our car. Since the city wasn't involved, I don't know what would have happened if he did not release our car but it would have gotten ugly. I understand if we were not customers but this type of extortion should be illegal!! read more

This place needs to get it together. I haven't gotten my online orders correct and it's a joke. Every time there is something missing or made incorrectly. How can you prep a combo meal and not add the fries to the bag or forget the drinks or mcflurries. Like It's not brain surgery. Just close this location down. I give up and will never order from this location again. read more

My son loves some chicken nuggets and this location is pretty good for fresh hot kids meals- fries and all. The staff is very friendly and it's always super busy, but somehow the line keeps moving. Sometimes we get a duplicate toy and there is no problem with exchanging it (as there are at other locations). We live a block away and from the time we arrive to the time we leave, my son has a smile on his face. read more

See all

I placed an UberEats order at around 3:00am because I work night shift at a nearby hospital. An hour and a half later at around 4:30am, after 5 Uber Drivers later, no update, no notification, my order gets canceled. I call to confirm what happened and the supervisor who answered the phone claimed they never received my order. If they didn't receive my order, then why was that not communicated with ANY of the FIVE drivers who showed up to pick up my order? They clearly just didn't want to make my order and probably shut down their lunch product orders earlier than they were supposed to. Make it make sense. Radio silence on the phone from that supervisor for a minute... then she hangs up. Rude... the audacity read more

What a shitty place ... outside! I only get coffee here, never the food, but the issue is parking. They have a lovely parking lot, but get this: there are 14 parking spaces, but 8 of them are marked as handicapped spots, while 3 are for drive-in window overflow, where customers wait for their orders. That leaves just 3 spaces for people to park. But wait! There's some guy who has everything he owns stuffed into his vehicle (including a large cooler, a bike, and a lawn mower strapped to the top); worst of all, he often double parks, further reducing parking space for others. And this guy is present every morning for several hours and sometimes acts in an intimidating manner toward customers. Management does not seem concerned about it. They should ... they're losing customers who don't like to deal with the drive-through experience. read more

McDonalds - Burgers Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

I simply cannot believe what happened to me at this McDonald's. It's so ridiculous that it's sort of funny at the same time. I will say the food at this McDonald's is usually good but the manager is another story. I had just come out of the dentist office and was going to text my son a picture of the business card from the dentist listing my next appointment. I placed the card from the dentist on the counter and snapped a picture of it with my phone and texted it to my son. As the manager (that's who he said he was) handed me my order he rudely asks me what I was taking pictures of. I didn't think anything of it and said that I was texting a picture of my dentist's business card to my son. He walks around to the area of the counter where I took the picture to inspect it as if I had found something wrong, perhaps the counter was dirty or there was something he did not want a picture taken of and tells me that I am not supposed to be taking pictures there. I commented to him that there was no sign prohibiting the taking of pictures, even though I had only taken a picture of my dentist's appoint reminder card. Then I asked him why he was so concerned about me taking pictures on the counter, was there something wrong that he didn't want me to capture in a pictures. Then out of nowhere the manager says "there is something wrong with YOU". I paused for a second, it caught me totally off guard. I asked him why he would say that to customer and he said that I told him there was something wrong with him which I did not. I simply stated that there must be something wrong there if he didn't want me taking pictures. Then one of the ladies in back of the counter starts telling him "no vale la pena" in reference to arguing with me. "No vale la pena" means it's not worth it. I also speak Spanish but I guess due to my light complexion they assumed I was a gringo because they were talking about me in Spanish. So I then said "Sí, no vale la pena" agreeing with the lady saying "yes, it's not worth it". He is going to get a complaint to McD's corporate and a bad review for his store. And it's awfully suspicious that he got so paranoid when he saw me taking a picture. What was going on there? read more

Getting help is slow. Most of the tables were very dirty with food on them from previous patrons...they don't clean them very often. The cashier won't take your order if you are using a credit card...so you are forced to use the kiosks which are never sanitized...and there are no table numbers as required by the order system in order to complete your order. The fries are cooked way ahead and just sit there (like at least 20 or 30 orders already bagged and ready under hot lights), meaning you get limp fries that are not very hot...actually the burger was not hot either. This place needs new management. It's a great location, but not very good. Don't waste your time. read more

I'm giving this place 5 stars, because I'm comparing it to other McDonald's restaurants. Relative to other McDonald's restaurants this one is very clean, the staff are friendly and helpful and the washrooms are always clean and well stocked. Also the staff are very accommodating when you ask for something to be made in another way other than what is typically on the menu. Both efficient and friendly. read more

I was during doing some errands in the area and I haven't eaten anything all day, so what the heck...... Went in and stood in line (3 deep) with two cashiers working. Finally, my turn, told Raul (cashier) that I would like a #6 (chicken sandwich w/ cheese, fries and regular coke)... hard order? He questioned on the drink. Repeated regular coke. Finally, got my order with diet coke. I stated, "I ordered regular coke". When he replaced the drink, without any apology or a little sorry, he pushed it in front of me on the tray. I stood there amazed. No customer service. I figured McDonald's don't need my money so I asked for my money back. Dominca (manager) clearly showed no empathy. Then, I noticed Raul, had pulled the fries (hand over the fries) and dumping them back into the fry bin. I asked, if she just saw what happened? She with a dumbfounded look - saw nothing. I told her. I clearly stated, that is against any quality control. I'm sure the Oak Brook HQ would like to know about this. Again, no expression change. You just wonder what other rules they are breaking. read more

It's difficult to be harsh on McDonald's, since they all typically follow the same formula for serving food. I like this particular location because it's situated along Clark Street-close to a lot of other venues. What makes McDonald's Lincoln Park unique is their dollar menu. The cheap eats include McDoubles, Cheeseburgers and Chicken. The drive through on the other hand is a little confusing because it winds way behind the store but lacks a well painted lane to show you which way to go. The restaurant is pretty clean inside though. The front of the store has large four person tables which face Clark. There are 3 booths near the ordering line. I don't usually eat inside but rather take my food to go. Finally, in my experience the service has also been pretty fast. read more

Friends and I ordered an ungodly amount of food at 2 AM. We just kept adding more food. Order was 100% perfect. And the ice cream machine was working and got an Oreo McFlurry. read more

While waiting on my order, a worker who was handling food was digging in her nose. Asked for the manager. Told Sergio, who identified himself as the manager, what I saw. He said ok but did not address her. He Went back to doing what he doing prior. And so did she. The lady dug in her nose again! I asked for the store manager but Sergio said he'll talk to her. Just f'ing disgusting! I expressed my concerns and He offered to give me free fries! What?! I don't want anything from this place! I asked for the store manager and was told he can't give me that info. ‍So disappointed because this used to be one of my favorite locations. I Got a refund and quickly left! I will not be returning to this location! read more

If I could give zero stars, I would. The food was okay, but the pop was very dilute and the sweet tea WAY too sweet. I put the change in my car console and went home. Today I discovered they short-changed me by $9.00!! (maybe that's why the car in front of us nearly backed into us as we were leaving - maybe they got ripped off, too) I've spent the past TWENTY minutes TRYING to call there to speak to the manager, but no one will answer the phone!!! read more

Do I go here once a week? Maybe? They do have $1 diet cokes and cheap amazing soft serve. I typically hate going in, but their drive through employees are really nice. They are much more friendly here than most McDonalds locations, but maybe it's because they get a kick out of the couple ordering soft serve in the middle of January. I do wish they would allow you to walk up to the drive through when the interior is closed and it's late night! read more

McDonalds - Burgers Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

Terrible! Says they're open until 1 but wouldn't let me order because I didn't have a car. Ridiculous

Inconsistent policies. I would be embarrassed to be the manager of this store. Extremely disappointed to see people walking up to the foot traffic window on some days but being denied - after purchasing their food - on others. The manager claims it is a policy to deny walk up orders but then stated "well... we don't accept them on Fridays and Saturdays." Do not patronize this location. McDonald's corporate should audit this location: either you accept walk-up or you don't. read more

Best McDonald's in the city! Constantly has a quick drive-thru. Deals are always available.

this location absolutely sucks. I've placed a pick up order and as soon as I called to pick up the doors were closed and they refused to give me my order. They said that I will be refunded in the morning and that was it. I am very upset with them just because I always place with this location and I don't see why everyone Has to be so rude and why I still could not pick up my order at all. read more

Claims to be 24-7 but the lobby is closed in the early morning. Fine. However, they refuse to accept bicycle orders when their lobby is closed. Very unprofessional. read more

McDonalds - a basket of french fries - Burgers Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

This place is disorganized and chaotic. I placed an order in the kiosk and wait about 15 minutes and asked if my order was done. The employee asked for my ticket- the kiosk never gave me a ticket! The other employees in the back are standing around talking to each other and moving around but not taking care of the customers. They never put my order together. Just walked out and went to wieners circle across the street Way better. Way too much hassle at this McDonalds read more

I was on my way home when a wave of sluggishness hit me that I knew only coffee could fix. But there wasn't a Starbucks to be found...which, being in Lincoln Park, you know is a total lie. Look, I could either go two blocks south or one block north for Starbucks but I was on my block and didn't want to do either. Okay then. McDonald's it is. First thing I noticed when I walked in is that it had been remodeled. Spiffy. I approached the counter as normal but came to a screeching halt as I looked to the left and saw kiosks. Touchscreen ordering kiosks. This is it, people. This is how it begins. We've seen the movies. One day you're ordering fries from kiosks, the next day Siri's accusing you of cheating with Alexa, and your toaster's trying to lasso you with its extension cord. This is Skynet, and the only person equipped to save us from impending doom is Linda Hamilton. Or Will Smith, who can apparently save the world from anything. On the other hand, you could just go up to the counter with cash and talk to an actual person. It's up to you. Yay, options! PS. one of these stars is because this was my go-to spot when I'd just moved into my apartment and had no wifi. Thanks McD's. read more
