1. Most unhappiest McDonalds of all time. Got yelled at by some woman for mistaking her order for mine. Also nobody had a smile on their face, it was like the sky got all cloudy when I walked inside and everything turned gray 2. Workers are walking all over but working very unproductively. Forgot half my order and took 23 (I timed it) minutes until my intervention to receive the other half. I saw someone trying to get the manager and took about 20 minutes to come out. Everyone was so tense and tired. Probably overworked and underpaid employees. These employees are also super dismissive and rude. You already know the boss is a terrible boss if their employees are taking out their work-related issues on costumers 3. Food was alright. Just normal McDonalds preservative quality 4. Floor was sticky and dirty and the ice machine was broken, so I was left with a lukewarm (and flat) cup of Coke Don't recommend, go save your time at a Burger King. They have way better food anyways read more

I feel like things keep getting worse at all McD's, but particularly this one. The food quality keeps deteriorating, the prices keep going up, and the service is nonexistent. It's a lot of corporate cost cutting with all the inflation, I get it, but it's getting out of hand. I do appreciate that this location still realizes that some people want to actually sit down and eat at a McDonald's. But the dining area is almost always filthy. And the play area needs a good bit of TLC. For the most part, you get the same culinary experience as any McDonald's. But, be forewarned, they aren't very good at customized orders. Often they just omit items you ask for extras on, or they simply ignore them. read more

My initial bday party idea for my 4yr old could not be executed due to the uncertain weather so I began looking for last minute replacements. My cousin threw McDonalds out there. We called several locations and was advised that they no longer hosted bday parties. Then we called the Route 3 location! To my surprise they were willing, and excited to host a birthday party for my son. They told us we could come check out the playroom and also drop off decorations ahead of time. McDonalds also told us how to place the order for our food to keep it cost effective. Well fast forward to the party day. We could not have been more pleased! The play room had been cleaned and sanitized and they sectioned off an area and decorated the tables with their provided tablecloths, balloons, place mats, and a birthday banner! We were allowed to play music and there was a bathroom located inside the playroom area. And of course the food was hot and yummy! They truly understood the mission and fully executed. Not to mention, there was no fee to host the party there. My son and whole family could not have been happier! No, McDonalds doesn't need reviews, but what a great experience that needed to be shared in case you're looking for your child's next bday party venue! You've found it! Ba Da Ba Ba Baaaa! I'm Lovin' It! :) read more

I understand there are poor reviews for food quality or errors -- this will happen for fast food. However, our dine-in experience was better than expected. Took my 5 year old here midday on a friday, and everything was clean and updated. There is a main restaurant section and a separate play room area for children. The main bathrooms were very clean and stocked. There is a separate family bathroom in the play zone area. The kids area has 2 large booths, 7 separate tables, and two large tables with low stools. It was not busy when we came. You can order with an employee at the counter or via a kiosk. For dine in, you need to pick out your table first and enter the table number upon checkout. They bring the food directly to your table. We ordered a quarter pounder meal and a happy meal with customizations, and everything was correct. My son really enjoyed playing on the play structure. It is a great option for kids on hot or cold weather days. Structure is likely meant for kids between 4 and 12. Small slide for tots but nothing else. There is plenty of parking to include handicapped spots. Right in the center of Route 3 with entrances on both sides. Also has drive thru as an option. read more

Food is fresh but horrible service and kept forgetting our things. The last few times I have been to this location, the inside has been dirty, the manager was literally on the phone while behind the counter and just looked at me. Do better. read more

If i could give a zero star i would. Terrible customer service. Why they are taking orders when the store is closed beats me. The fact that they coned off all the enterances when they have active orders through the app is insane amd i was told no refund for an order i placed less then 10 minutes before i arrived. They even served a fucking frappe to someone while i was there but refused to serve me Unprofessional. Customer Beware read more

Just stopped here yesterday for first time in years. Definitely had a major renovation done to it. We ordered 5 sandwiches around 2pm and were missing 2 of them when we left. I don't understand how we can be asked to wait, and after waiting, we still do not get our full order. Jake n kev read more

Came here on the late night with my son almost 2 weeks ago. While I was ordering my food a guy came from out of nowhere and tried to hop in the backseat of my car. Luckily there was nobody in front on me in the inside lane and I pulled off. I didn't even know he was there until I heard him pull the handle. I'm really good about watching my mirrors, and was baffled as to how he got up on me like that so I drove back the next day and realized that there are stairs behind the drive thru order sign. I called the mcdonalds a bunch of times, but got no answer. I called the police when I get home and made a report. My son was scared to death, but was able to give a great description of the guy, because he got a better glimpse of him than I did. Outside of potentially being harmed/robbed/murdered the service here sucks. I was stuck in line my previous visit for over 20 minutes for 1 meal. If you come here, avoid that inside lane at all cost. read more

Normal McDonalds, nothing different and nothing spectacular. We've been here twice in the last couple months to get the kiddo a Happy Meal and they never have the advertised toys (that we came for). When asked, the woman was not very kind and said they'd get them in next week, walked away and ignored us (and we merely asked if there was another option, very professional and we're not being inappropriate to her)... we came back a couple months later and the same exact thing happened, and we got the same exact Teen Titans coloring page we got a couple months back. They reuse old toys and boxes, maybe to save some cash, and I get it, business life is tough. Lastly, cleanliness gets a low grade-nothing is wiped down and nothing for us to wipe it down ourselves. Giving it a 2/5 for lack of professionalism, lack of cleanliness, and not serving as advertised. read more

Great customer service most of the food was as usual but I have never received a medium burger from y'all until now. One patty cooked the other isn't. read more

This is no McDonald's Cafe or McDonalds Anything at all. This place is more of an emotionless factory line of pushing artificial food and flavor that still taste like the color grey. The place is ran by a Sassy Caribbean man who could careless about an issue you have. The manager has about as much shine and use as a 1973 wet penny. He'll get the job done but only 1 percent at a time. The place is also fairly dirty. The playground looks like somebody was trying to feed pigeons some French fries but expected birds to fly in at some point. Lastly, an employee was shot and killed here one night and the store power washed the parking lot and resumed operations that morning. Seems like a nice mourning process as an employee. read more

This is undoubtedly the slowest McDonalds I have ever been to. Many employees seemed to be just milling about in the parking lot while the drive through line grew longer and longer. It took over 5 minutes per vehicle in the drive through line. read more

Terrible service. Cashier short patience as I ordered, rushing me with hand motion. Worker loud talked me when I asked for condiments. Super frustrated hostile work environment, heated discussions in front of customers. A recipe for disaster. Food is typical McDonalds. read more

Never have I ever.... reviewed a McDonald's! Lol. I had a rare craving. I feel like coming to a McDonald's is always a toss up -- it's either going to exceed your expectations or fail miserably. This was the former! While the employees aren't necessarily focused on friendliness or hospitality, I got exactly what I ordered (special order) and everything was so fresh. I was in and out of the drive-thru in about 120 seconds. Overall super impressed and I'll be back another 8-12 months from now when I'm hungry for something only McDonald's can provide, haha. read more

People at the drive thru were nice & helpful. This was in the early afternoon. Love the deals they have on the mobile app. read more

McDonald's - Fast Food Near Me - Gambrills, Maryland

This location unfortunately experienced a horrible tragedy this week. An employee was gunned down while working the drive-thru. I find if GROSSLY offensive, insensitive, and disturbing that literally hours later they reopened for business and were operating normally. Literally THAT morning someone was shot and killed working at the window and 6 hours later they have someone working that same job, in the same place as if it never happened. How grossly insensitive to the other employees who may still be processing the trauma. read more

This location is always ridiculous after 9 pm. It's a 15 minute wait just to order. I've been told multiple times The location is closed through drive through when I see people walking inside. Or I'll sit in the drive thru and wait for someone to tell me they aren't taking orders. There needs to Be staffing improvements and better customer service. read more

Wow, no service here. No one can take my order. Yelling at customers to use the kiosk. It's so much faster if someone takes your order. The kiosks are terrible. It didn't give me a receipt. No ice in the soda machine. Hashbrown way overdone. read more

Back for another time. This McDonald's is the most disgusting one I have ever been to. Bathrooms look like they have never been cleaned before. Service here is very very slow so don't ever come here if your in a rush. Playspace is disgusting no way they clean it at all If you value yourself and your child you will sanitize your hands after leaving this place. read more

Trash. Was in line by 10:20am for breakfast. Took them 12 minutes to let any cars pull up. Then they wouldn't let us order breakfast.

Worst fucking customer service I'm from out of state And I'm staying at a families house nearby, It's 3 am I'm hungry af And this is the only food place that's open for miles And I have no car So since it's only 3 min away I called and asked if they had dine in and the lady there said no only drive through I asked her can I walk through the drive thru because I have no car And that I'm starving to death. She said sorry can't help you and hung up on me Wtf... Fire the late night shift worker No heart no love and no appreciation for her job. read more

This place was fine right after it reopened from it's renovations and has rapidly gone down hill since. The play area is massive, but every time I bring my son it's dirtier and dirtier. Every time we come the food is slower and the orders less accurate. The ketchup dispensers haven't worked from the beginning. The employees use the bathroom in the play place for some reason and stay in there forever. The men's bathroom in the main part of the restaurant smells SO. BAD. In the play area there is a repetitive beeping sound about every 5 seconds and it's been that way for at least 3 weeks. It's crazy loud. The place is just all around dirty and the service is poor. I bring my kid here because I can get a table in the play area while he plays, as opposed to other places where the tables are located in an entirely different room. I think I'm done giving this place chances now, though. read more

Ordered a burger, bread was hard. Gave it another chance the next night, same thing. Ordered breakfast via DoorDash prior to 11am this morning, McDonald's confirmed the order and then told my dasher that breakfast was over... so why confirm the order? The order was placed at 10:44am and confirmed it immediately. Wish it wasn't the only place open when I work nights and am on the way home. read more

If you want rude, unfriendly service, this is the place. Food is McDonald's quality, but the service? Go across the street to the other fast food establishments. read more

Wow, this was bad. When I made my order, after each item the person quickly asked "is that all?" Like he had something else to do. (No one in line behind me). This was not a normal way to address a customer. I felt I was just a customer taking up his time from other things. Then, when I went to pay, the lady at the window was arguing with someone on her headsets to get off the microphone. I felt I was just a customer taking up her time from other things. Finally, I was given my order with a missing sprite. I said there was another sprite I ordered with the kids meal. She quickly came back with attitude that it's right there. I said there was another one. She just sat there and stared...very strange. I asked again where the other sprite is. She asked to see the receipt and said I didn't order another sprite with the kids meal. I said I did...(there was no apple juice with the kids meal either). She stares and waits..then said what's the problem with attitude. I said there wasn't another sprite. So she gets another one and hands it to me. I felt I was just a customer taking up her time from other things. After we left, we discovered we got a 4 piece nugget, not a six piece. Overall, each individual attitude and rush would have been not that big of a deal on its own, but to have attitude from three different people shows something is seriously wrong with the workplace climate and management. Lack of attention to the customer experience and lack of ability to hide the attitude. read more

I had multiple issues just trying to order the food because no one was answering the drive thru after I sat there for 10 minutes resulting in having to park and go inside but my biggest issue is the fact that BOTH of the quarter pounders I got were raw. It's absolutely disgusting and I'm hoping I don't get sick from the one bite I did take. read more

This "one star" should be a zero! We just left the location about 35 mins ago. My BF had to use the men's room and reported that it was filthy! This was discovered after we went through the (way) less than friendly drive thru, where the manager robotically handed me the order without uttering a word -- no "Thank You!", "Good Morning", "Good Bye", nada! I will say his Sausage Mcmuffin was hot, but after the "bathroom discovery" he regretted eating it! One positive, the young man at the first window who took the money was extremely courteous and kind. Maybe he could teach the manager something, because her customer service skills are non-existent! read more

Stopped here for a quick lunch. I tried to order at the counter and was told only cash customers. I had to use the kiosk! The food came quick, was hot and good. My rating is based on the poor (my perception) service! read more

I visit this location often for their McCafe cappuccinos. Mcdonald's McCafe drinks are actually great...when made correctly...much better than overrated Starbucks. Unfortunately, when I order from this McDonald's there is only a 50% chance that my drink is made correctly. On tooooo many occasions I have been handed the wrong drink, OR, handed a cup of what tastes like brown water. I have ended up throwing out many "cappuccino's", and have wasted my money. On one occasion, the dimwitted person who made my cappuccino did not put the lid on tightly. When I picked up the cup from my car cupholder, the hot sticky sweet liquid spilled ALL over my gear shift and floor. I dont know why I continue to torture myself by visiting this place. Ordering drinks that come out of a machine, and the employees still manage to F*CK them up!!! Unbelievable. read more

If there is anything in this world that you absolutely have to do for yourself and well-being, avoiding this particular location is up there with: quitting smoking, contributing at least the employer match, watching Stranger Things, taking a mental health day, voting, consistent dental visits, etc. It's THAT important. Unless of course you like piss poor customer service, ridiculously slow service times, and consistent wrong orders. ‍ read more

Stopped here for a egg mcmuffin and OJ . Staff were super nice and friendly , fast service , very clean bathroom too . I normally go thru the drive through but needed the restroom , glad I went in ! My sandwich was delicious too ! Side note : $2.00 bucks for a small OJ seems kinda high considering a half gallon same price at the grocery store . Oh, well . read more

Please excuse my language. It's 1AM and I'm pissed lmao, but why the fuck does this place say they're 24/7 when they close at fucking 11PM? Can someone please explain that shit to me? This is not the first time come to this please and they tell me they're closed late at night. Like damn, ya girl just want a late night snack lmao. read more

Family of 8 celebrating 5 year old's birthday at the location of her choosing. Tried inner drive through - no response for 3 minutes - decided it must be closed and went around again to outer drive through. Order individual was rude and impatient. We ordered a total of 52 chicken nuggets - did not receive any sauces though we had requested them. We also ordered 4 fries and received no ketchup. To top it all off - no napkins were placed in our bags. Due to covid-19 we were too far away and the line was too long anyway - to seek to rectify. Worst experience at McDonalds in 50 years! The food was up to standard and it was good. read more

I pulled up through the the drive thru and ordered a number 4 and a number 6 but asked for them to be made to order. After handing me the food they told me it was made to order after only 3 minutes and of course it wasn't and everything was warm. They had me pull up to the reserved drive they and made me wait outside for 12 minutes without checking back on me or bringing me the food. I had to go back inside just to ask why my food wasn't brought to me, only to find out that they hadn't even started on the order yet. By the way, there wasn't any customers inside waiting in line, so they weren't that busy. read more

Looking for a place you can pay for food that you never receive? (Make sure to check your bag.) How about a burger joint that serves burgers so tepid they won't melt the cheese on them? Maybe buns so stale and rubbery that you struggle to bite through them? Fries served lukewarm and rubbery? Even more skilled, hot and rubbery? If you like having to pull forward and wait for your food to be prepared so that you can receive barely edible food and not quite everything you ordered, this is the location for you. read more

Terrible service enough said. Both McDonald's on RT3 are among the worst and slowest I've ever been too.

Really slow service. My food sat for 5 minutes before the manager would give it to me.

I've been a customer of this McDonald's for over 10 years. I think the RT-3 @ 424 McD's has figured it out! They are fast, courteous, and the food is consistently good. The line an be a bit long at peak times... but they keep it moving. This one has upgraded to the new 'cafe' style and has a large play room. My local McD's is horrible... I drive out of my way to grab a Happy Meal here! A happy meal is enough for me! My husband gets a bit more tho. Overall... this is not a five star restaurant with valet parking, but this McD's does as well as a fast food establishment can do! It's definitely in the top 20%. read more
