Update: 05/23/2026 I am back! Yes, I told you I was going to try the Strawberry Watermelon Refresher:) Guess what? It was delicious just as I imagined! Again, not too sweet, just pleasant to sip repeatedly, haha as I did. I love the taste, but I have to say the other two I had yesterday tasted better. I probably would order this again, but it would be my last option when choosing the refreshers. 05/22/2026 I have been seeing these refreshers all over TikTok! I couldn't wait to try them. I purchased the Blackberry Passion Fruit Refresher and the Mango Pineapple Refresher. These drinks were so delicious! I was thinking it was going to taste overly sweet, but I was totally wrong. The drinks definitely quenched your thirst. I love the popping boba in the Mango Pineapple, and the dragon fruit in the Blackberry Passion Fruit. Very yummy! Good, fruity and scrumptious all the way to the last drop! These drinks had me chewing up ice, haha. I will be trying the Strawberry Watermelon Refresher next:) We went through the drive thru to place the order so I had no issues with service. It was a quick grab and go for me so I was happy! read more

Went to pick up an order. Management..or so called was just as rude as she could be. Smelled like grease and ass. Nasty place. Dirty floors. Gross. I highly suggest you go somewhere else. read more

I hate leaving these types of reviews, but I had the worst experience at this location. I waited at the register for 10 minutes before someone came. I had a special order that I know couldn't be handled on the kiosk. The young man with a colorful weave, was rude and told me "McDonalds is taking away the registers and trying to train their customers to use the kiosk. I refuse to go into the complete details of the interaction, but just know I will NEVER spend another dime there. And by the way, in his rudeness, my food was completely wrong and disgusting.. read more

Employees were nice and food was served quickly. Great for McDonalds. They even appear to have an area for larger groups. It was closed when I was there though, so could not get a photo. I would go back to this location. read more

They made me pull up to number 2 drive thru spot to wait for my food, and then I was waiting there for 25 minutes with nothing. Complete waste of time and I had to go through the drive thru again just to get my food. All they did was apologize and I didn't get anything extra for them wasting half an hour of my time. I was late for my class because of it. The food was also trash read more

McDonald's - a hand holding a hamburger - Burgers Near Me - Columbia, South Carolina

Honestly impressively slow and discombobulated. I am being very patient and am in jovial mood but I have been standing in this crowd of helpless souls dreaming of food for so long that I have now pulled a chair into the middle of the lobby. I ordered a spicy chicken sandwich. That's it. No specialties. I ordered it at 3:02. It's currently 3:46. read more

We usually drink Coffee in the AM at the McDonalds on Garners Ferry and Atlas Rd. For about two weeks now there have been dead flies and live flies preventing us from enjoying our Coffee, Oatmeal and Chicken Biscuit in the AM. If you need pictures we have them**** read more

Ordered a curbside order since i had surgery and walking is difficult. Waited about half an hour with no updates or food. Tried calling the store to ask for an update and got a disconnected line three times. Decided to crutch myself inside. Waited about 5-10 minutes before anyone even paid attention to me even after i tried to draw their attention several times. Then had to wait another 10ish minutes for the food to be made. I get labor numbers have to be within a range but damn :/ really disappointing. Back of house floors looked gross from the guest point of view. I work in the restaurant industry and there is no reason in hell why guest should see food thrown all over the floors in food preparation or cooking areas. As far as the lobby goes one of the two outside doors was looked so i had to crutch all the way around. A sign would've been nice . Lobbies floors were sticky and greasy. Lights were off and the whole atmosphere wasn't really welcoming at all. Seemed almost like the place was closed Food was disappointing to say the least portion sizes have definitely dropped down. Protein sizes have seriously shrunk and its really more bread than anything. Would give no stars if i could.... read more

I went through the drive thru at the Lancaster, South Carolina location on 09/21/2024 and I placed a mobile order. Once I got to the speaker and told her my name and code. She said she "has no order with my name." So I made sure multiple times I was at the right location. She still refused to do her job correctly. So I had to leave the drive thru while my account was still charged and my 6,000 rewards points are gone. I have to wait until Monday to call corporate. Please hire some more educated people read more

First of all the service was terrible. The guy at the window was rude and seemed aggravated. I was being as polite as possible and I ordered a 10 piece nugget and they said they didn't have nuggets like wtf ?? read more

This is one of the worst McDonald's ive ever been to. Its the closest to my house so sometimes i give them the benefit of the doubt and give it a try. They always remind me why i never go there, between cold food, closing before 9pm, wrong orders hidden in correct packaging. I know they don't get paid a lot but they should honestly be paid nothing for how poor of a job they do. Its just sad how bad of a job they do read more

My husband ordered 2 Sausage Egg McMuffins and a large sweet tea from this McDonald's this morning on the way to work. He took his first bite thinking it would be a soft hot deliciousness, unfortunately to his demise chomped down on a sandwich full of crunchy egg shells. After sputtering the sandwich out he noticed it was not just a few pieces that may go undetectable but the big triangular pieces. Remember the Sesame Street song "One of These Things" where the viewer had to identify the item that did not belong. I just wonder if the sandwich preparer had a problem identifying the item that did not belong on the sandwich. I understand breakfast rush can get hectic, but always find your peace like singing an upbeat song in your head to keep the pace and not make bad decisions. Whatever job you have do your best, and if that's your best ask your lead or manager for more training. Recuerda paso a paso. read more

Waited in line for a long time... cashier re-asked my order at the window and said they "never got it". Had to reorder and wait for it to be made... ended up with a cheeseburger when I ordered a double quarter pounder meal...don't waste your time and money. read more

If you plan to get ice cream- DO NOT GO HERE. Horrible customer service. We were in line for 10 minutes and they served two cars ahead of us that got there after us. Came to the window and ordered ice cream only to be told they "aren't serving ice cream right now" which is 9 times out of ten code for "we are too lazy to turn on our machine and don't want to clean it later." You will have much better service at Wendy's on Assembly, save yourself some time. read more

This is one of the worst McDonald's I have ever visited...and I love McDonalds food. I ordered a Happy Meal and when my 4-year old looked for the apple slices, the lady at the front counter rudely told me, "We are out of apple slices, that's why we gave you more french fries." The way she talked to me was very demeaning. . Second disappointment, the same lady at the front counter on April 28, 2023 at 2:00pm was very rude to every customer that approached the counter. She continued to say, I'm the only one at the counter. Use the kiosk to order and would walk away to talk, joke and laugh with other staff members in the back. Third disappointment, when you used the kiosk, the kiosk would not accept credit cards; therefore, you still had to go to the counter and try to get the "rude staff member's" attention. She'd ignore you and then say, "What? What do you want?" Once you explain that you couldn't pay at the kiosk, she looked irritated that customers were bothering her. Fourth disappointment, I watched the same rude and unprofessional front counter staff person intentionally not giving a customer his food. When he asked for the food, she would say, "Don't you go and give me attitude!"...shaking her finger at the customer. The customer did not do anything at all to offend this RUDE McDonald's employee.... Fifth disappointment, this is the closest McDonald's to the Columbia's Children's Museum and customers mumbled as they had to put up with this rude employee's attitude. The atmosphere of this restaurant was negative, unwelcoming...all due to the very large woman working the front counter who had a real "look at me, I have power over these people that come in." All other employees appeared to be nervous about this employee at the front counter. Many tried to ignore her negative attitude and her openly talking badly about customers to other staff members as the customers were standing there. This one employee gave everyone walking in one of the worst experiences at McDonalds. I suggest that you drive to another McDonalds, if this woman continues to work at this restaurant! read more

For a fast food place, this is by far one of the worst I have ever been to. The lack of service leaves a lot to be desired. The people are always rude. A woman told me this morning she got a better breakfast served with a smile for less money at lizards thicket. The only reason to go to this McDonald's is the convenience in location. If I could give zero stars I would. read more

Horrible service. Got into line, it was busy which is fine. the lady took my money at 11:14 according to the receipt period when I got to the second window they asked me to pull up which I did. At 11:51, I got out of my car and walked to the drive-thru to ask about my order. The lady gave me a bag and I drove away when I got home my order wasn't even correct. Will not go back. read more

McDonald's - a receipt in a car - Burgers Near Me - Columbia, South Carolina

I met a young lady named Jewel. McDonald's needs many more employees like her. She made my day. Thank you Jewel! God bless you!

Y'all. This McDonalds accidentally gave me 12 hash browns yesterday. Our visits to McDonalds are few and far between, but my five year old requested McDonald's breakfast yesterday morning as a "special treat". I figured the occasional soggy-with-grease biscuit won't kill 'em and called it an adventure. Ultimately, the adventure took 30 minutes in the drive-thru, featured a long and confusing religious greeting and ended it the wrong order This place is so close to the house and would be very convenient, but the inefficiency and overall discomfort resulting from it was a beautiful blessing it disguise. Only come here if you have a lighthearted sense of humor, don't want the food you ordered and have plenty of time on your hands. read more

I ordered a double quarter pounder and a large Dr Pepper. What I received was a raw burger and a medium coke. Very unsatisfied

The customer service here is awful! We visited the drive-thru for a Diet Coke. We waited until we got back to USC to drink it and found they had given us a Dr. Pepper. I returned to McDonalds, this time going inside to the counter. There were two people working the counter. The man looked so confused with my request for the proper beverage that the woman working the counter asked, "What's the problem?" Neither worker apologized for the inconvenience. Neither worker offered to serve me the correct beverage. The woman turned away. Finally I asked the male worker, still dumbstruck and hanging onto the Dr. Pepper, to just give me a new glass. He did and I served myself. The workers were rude, uninterested, inefficient, and incompetent. read more

No employee was present during open hours. Waited at the drive thru for minutes and no one answered

If you want messed up food. Go through the drive through at this McDonald's. They have confused staff that will totally fuck up your food. It's like winning the lottery if they get it correct. read more

EXPENSIVE. Since when is a McChicken $3? I'm from California where everything is 1. Held to a higher standard and 2. More expensive. Over there, it's a $1.50. Also, they put 5 shreds of lettuce on my chicken sandwich. I know southerners are scared of all things green and healthy, but how hard is it to put a decent amount of lettuce on a sandwich?? Lady at the drive through was also very rude when my friend asked politely for our order to be corrected, because she failed to give us the deal advertised. I know this review won't stop people from coming here, but maybe management looks at it so I'm giving it a shot. read more

Lazy ass people that work here! They take too long and will curse you out for no reason. It's not my fault y'all are no bodies in life.

I have a small child and sometimes have to stop here for a quick kids meal for her - but they ask me to pull over into a reserved spot and wait more than half the time. I just ordered a kids meal and a quarter pounder and now I have PAID so I'm forced to park my car and wait. This isn't "fast" food and if I knew I was going to wait this long, I wouldn't have stopped here. read more

I wish I could give zero stars. This is the third time I've given this location a try. Every time I've been highly disappointed, and every time I've had to wait outside of the special reserve a spot for basic things like french fries and cheeseburgers. Today was the last straw. My girlfriend and I ordered basic food and a signature sandwich. We had to wait upwards of 10 minutes outside just to have them bring the food without our drinks. Once we finally got our food we realize that the french fries were undercooked and soggy. I don't care what any of these fake five star reviews are telling you about this place being super clean and super nice and blah blah blah. This place is a worthless existence on earth. Take your money and threw it directly in the toilet if you'd like to come here. You'll have much more fun doing so. read more

Pretty much an absolute shit show, had to spend 10 minutes clarifying my meal and they still didn't get it right. Don't waste your time and brain cells attempting to get food from this establishment read more

This location rips people off with their ice coffee cup sizes ... I know that smalls are originally in medium ice cups, medium is in large cups and large is in xl cups. The manager even lied about it. So I spent 2.58 on a small ice coffee ... not going back to this location read more

Today at McDonald's my experience was absolutely horrible. The two black women at the second window had an attitude with me the whole time. I ordered a quarter pounder and they didn't ring it up and said i never ordered it then charged us $12 for a 20 piece when it was only $7. They told me I'd have to go back around and order again because they didn't ring up the quarter pounder and were saying i was wrong the whole time and was being extremely rude. I might need to speak to a manager. read more

Great service! 2 minutes to order and get my food! Only reason I didn't give 5 stars is because last time I came thru the drive thru it took almost 20min. But today's experience was MUCH better! read more

Supposed to be open until 4 am. Had cones in drive thru at 12 am. Completely inconsiderate and violating their advertising!

On Wednesday afternoon it appeared the manager was running the register. Service was outstanding and he went out of his way to get special things for me. Overall dining experience was superior to most McDonald's. The chicken nuggets were on sale for one dollar, add to that a senior drink and later a dollar menu ice cream, and there really isn't a less expensive place to dine. The dining room was reasonably clean as well and they have two high-speed drive through lanes. This was my first time to try this location. read more
