For those cars that parked at the curbside pick up. If you are going to eat inside or decide to pick up your food inside please leave those spots open for people who are there for curbside pick up. Most of the time I go there and it is empty, but sometimes they are full and people just park there just to go inside and eat. Yes, they dont say you cant park there if you are going inside and eat, but i would like to use those spots for my curbside pick up. read more

Pulled up to the drive thru. No response. I said "hello." No response. 5 minutes later after sitting in the drive thru with my car parked and same goes for the other lady in the other lane, someone finally says something. "Are you using the mobile app today?" Maybe if you're busy let us know when we pull up like a simple "Hi, give us a second" or when you finally talk a "Sorry about the wait." Thanks for nothing. Food was good though. read more

This location is pretty busy for the most part during certain hours of the day as it is in the shopping center of Luckys. It is also in close proximity of schools and a different shopping center which means easy access for people to just get in line. The food is always fresh. I have never had an issue with that. That ice cream machine works :-) The ambience is cute. The outside has been reconstructed to look more modernized the inside as well. The inside has tabletop screens where children and their caregivers or peers can engage in playing games with one another. There are Kiosks available if you need more time processing what you want and they have people that will take your order. There is a great amount of parking spaces as well as parking spots allocated for pick up order. Staff are pretty nice as well. read more

My first time here, we stopped by to get breakfast on the way back home. The place was clean and pretty busy for a Sunday morning. Service was fast. I thought it was pretty cool that they had a little kids table where they can play with a tablet while they eat or keep them busy while the parents eat. I felt kind of old thinking about when I was younger and they had the PlayPlace or playground you can play in. What happened to kids being active instead of being glued to an electronic device? Lol Overall, a great experience. Food was fresh and piping hot. read more

McDonald's - Touch2play? Good for kids but miss the playground - Burgers Near Me - Hercules, California

Found myself at McDonalds due to a choose your own adventure in Hercules with the kids making all the decisions. This review is primarily about the Happy Meal (foreshadowing here) which should be rebranded as the World's Saddest Meal. The kids made the choice of the main - a "hamburger". I'm withholding the urge to put quotes on everything because this food item barely meets the requirements for being a burger. Size - a very small child might be satisfied with this. Bun - the most affordable white bread that is available. The most appalling thing about the hamburger is the patty, which is flavorless and rubbery. It is also so thin, it looks like it has been through the same process for plating gold onto jewelry. For sides, they ran out of apple fries, so the two kids fries were combined into one small fries - equivalent to half a handful of fries. Milk - acceptable Toy - kids were excited by an Elio toy, but that excitement quickly faded when the toy was opened. It was an alien on a blue plastic tray. The toy came with plastic tongs that you pinch to propel the alien. It didn't work well at all, and something tells me that most of the cost goes into the licensing (there's way better stuff $1 toys on Temu!) The nail in the coffin on this trip was the app not working. read more

McDonald's - Happy Meal Toy - Burgers Near Me - Hercules, California

Great deal in the McD app : buy any size drink & get any size fry for free ! For $1.69 plus tax, you get a Large Iced tea ( $1.69 ) & a Large fry ( $4.19 reg price for a Medium ) !! ( if you ask for no salt you will get a fresh hot fry & just bring your own salt & pepper - wink-wink !! The fries here are a nice & crispy toasty brown ! I bring a small personal container of pink salt & Cracked ground pepper to season my fresh hot fries ! The iced tea half unsweetened & half sweet is perfect for me , not too sweet, you can even add a lemon slice !! But you need the App & you can even earn points for free food !! Ordering in the app it's usually all ready when I get there- very quick !! This store plays upbeat popular music but the dining room closes @ 9:00 pm !! Sometimes earlier if not enough crew !!! read more

Another terrible experience. So my girls ordered through the app for Uber Eats delivery. A 10 piece chicken nuggets was missing. They called, the girl just hung up on them after learning food was missing! Called again, this time I took over the call and asked for the manager. Again, told us that if we want s refund or the missing food, we MUST go to the store in person!! No refund through the app for the missing food!!! This defeats the whole purpose of having food delivered!! Please explain why they can't deliver the missing food??!?!?!??? read more

I've been to this McDonald for a while, don't go too often, but since they put in a double drive thru, it seems to alleviate the back up. The prices has gone up, some of their food is not bad. Still like my nuggets and sweet tea. You also can't go wrong with their breakfast menu. It feels like they have new people that work, their service a bit better than the last time I reviewed them. I feel the ambiance is mostly go through the drive through which them putting a double drive through helps. They still have indoor/outdoor seating and no playland since my last review. Overall, you want something quick and don't want to wait this is the place for you. But there are other better burger joints than McDonald's. read more

Shout out for the fast service lmfao NOT!!!!!!There was no one in line for them to make any excuses for this order being rushed!! but damn I was better off buying a happy meal instead of a Large. Have the container filled with fries and providing incorrect condiments. But I'm sure I'll be back again lol. read more

The person at the drive through window handed me my food and was too busy talking with their co worker. I've tried to reach out to the manager/owner and I get the run around. We support this business because it's convenient but they seem to not care about their customers. They also treat the students so poorly when they have ordered here. Too bad corporate doesn't do some quality control at this location. They can use a McDonald's Donald's university refresher course in kindness. read more

Time and date 10:05 pm 8/19/2024 Issue cold fries. Old taste. The manager knew these fries was cold when you handed them to me with that guilty look on your face. Did not have time to turn around.

I ordered nuggets and a crispy chicken sandwich, BOTH had what looked like fried rodent or animal hair on top of the sandwich that was in the wrapper and on top the nuggets inside the box! Photos taken, reported to McDonalds Josie, and DoorDash! Josie said the GM will call me. I told her they need to immediately check for any possible rodent issues. UPDATE: I was told by Josie that this was broken pieces of the sponge used to clean the food trays. Either way, quality control and supervisors need to do better please. read more

Pretty impressed by this Mickee D's! It's been so long since I've been inside of one and I decided to stop by the one near my place for a quick snack. Super modern inside. Self-order kiosks, sleek tile walls, gray, black, yellow hues, stylish minimalist art, clean bathrooms- I felt like Dorothy in Wizard of Oz! Using the convenient self-ordering kiosk, I got 3 things from the $1-$3 menu: small fries, double cheeseburger, and 4 piece chicken nuggets. Upon checkout, there was a $1 discount, which brought my total to an incredible $6.49. Minutes after I placed my order and put my number tag on my table, an employee whisked out and dropped off my food. Now that's service! Food was ok, the usual fast food quality, but definitely had an above average experience. One thing I would suggest is to have more of the tables cleaned. Although they were devoid of items, I can see some minor food residue on the tables from previous customers. read more

Just got the worst service from Nancy. I ordered on the app but they didn't have the drink I wanted. That was the main thing why I wanted to go there. So I requested to just cancel my order and get a refund. I tired to do it on the app but did not know how and asked for help. Nancy gave me attitude and asked me to go inside. She ignored me when I came in. They tired to give me half of the amount. Alma took charge and helped me. Nancy needs more training on customer service. read more

A local tradition. Great place for breakfast. Bring some friends, bring a cigarette for the parking lot. Have some coffee. Practice your Tagalog. Maybe your employee will speak Spanish. Use the app. You can customize and you get points. Free refills on sodas if you ask kindly. Soda machine is behind the counter. See what deals are on the app. Hash browns are good, Powerade is good. Look for the $1 fries in the Deals section of the app. Get a cone. Get two cones. They're great and made with low-fat ice cream. The staff rules here, so friendly and patient. Great place. I'm lovin' it. read more

Need faster "order/ takers"!!! Unbelievably slow & rude!! Stay out of inside service "after School hours...unruly, loud kids! read more

I'm typically a drive-thru only customer, and thankfully, I've never had a mishap at this location. As expected around 12-1pm and 5pm the drive-thru line is huge, so I go around those times. The crispy chicken sandwiches lack the crispness, so the texture makes it seem like it's a grilled chicken sandwich instead. Recently I ordered a Deluxe Quarter Pounder, and the only difference I could tell in the pictures between a Deluxe and Regular Quarter Pounder is that the Deluxe has lettuce. I'm not a fan of the burgers and sandwiches from McDonalds because right after eating, it makes me feel fatigued, so I prefer food from Burger King and In N Out instead. Though, I highly recommend trying the guava pies which I believe are new this year. There is guava jelly and cream cheese (?) in the center, 10/10. read more

No wonder why my mind programs me to NEVER stop by this crappy place!! Got cheeseburgers asked for no onions Extra pickles got one pickle each as pictured. If you want a totally ruined appetite please please please I'm begging you come here. If you want actually decent food, not trash, then stay away. This place is good for nothing I've ordered EVER. Not one worker in this place has ever got this simple order right.. Sh*t food thanks for nothing won't be back ever again even if I was dying and will tell everyone to not come to this garbage facility. Edit : yes I was mad about my lousy pickles! I just wanted 2 pickles at LEAST LOL. They Will give you no pickles if you ask for extra I don't know what it is about asking for pickles but they just cannot stand to give you more... read more

$5 20pc McNuggets (via the app)?! HELLS YES! I wasn't even planning on coming through, but it is the one thing I like at McD's (the fish filet is a not-so-distant second) and I thought I'd get it just to have at the house to snack on. It was the first time I'm picking up a McD online order through the drive-thru. (I usually have it brought to the car or I go in myself.) There were only 2 cars ahead of me, so I figure it'd be quick - and quick it was. I gave them my order number and I was outta there in less than 5 minutes. I didn't have it immediately, but when the mood came up, I just popped a few in the air fryer for a couple of minutes and down the yummies in my tummy! The nuggets are what they are - as expected. I was happy-happy. Close enough to home to return. The app has some decent deals. Will most likely return. read more

Absoloutely ABLEIST location. My mother is severely blind and does not drive so we walk over there and more often than not, the doors are LOCKED. Why? Because the staff won't clean up after the teens when they get out of school or kick them out when they're being an issue. Look, I get it, teens get messy and disruptive..but they're making it everyone else's problem because they can not do their job they get paid above minimum wage to do. read more

Don't go to Hercules McDonald's they're awful. Disappointing all around. Used to go here for the drive thru often. A few times my kids orders were given to us wrong and I had to spend extra time going back to get the correct one but I was met with a rude service instead of saying it's their mistake and they don't mind fixing their mistakes. Yesterday we chose to eat inside, but the lobby was closed between 2-6pm because of this locations aggressive dislike towards students from nearby schools. Nowhere on their business page or listed hours does it say they close during that time, had it been posted anywhere except their glass doors we would have chosen not to stop there. My 5 year old needed to use the restroom (and we were ordering for lunch) but they said lobby is closed. Their response "there are other restaurants with bathrooms". How they operate under a franchise name and still suck money out of customers without letting them use the dining room or restrooms is beyond me. Why work for a business or operate a business under a brand name if you want to turn away people and treat them horribly. This location is extremely rude and incompetent. read more

McDonald's has been in Hercules since 1990. When I moved to Hercules in 1988 there wasn't a McDonald's and where it is located at was just dirt and hill. McDonald's has been serving Hercules for nearly 30 years. Every morning the place is filled with people eating breakfast. During lunch and dinner it attracts children coming out of school at Ohlone Elementary. McDonald's was recently remodel. It use to have a playground but hey got rid of it. Now this location has 4 self service kiosk for people to order their food. McDonald's can have bad service but if you know what you want to order then just order your food. read more

These people are NOT customer friendly, McDonald's has lost its spirit. People remember how you make them FEEL! This location in particular has become extremely stingy and anti-customer. We keep you in business, how you treat US is directly tied to how your business grows. Terrible judgement calls by a stingy soulless manager. You buy multiple drinks and ask for a cup of ice, they say no, why would you want to give your business to a business like that? Karma catches up with everybody. That $0.20 cents of ice lost you about $100/mo of business from this customer. Genius! Courtesy goes a long way. You made about $10 for 4 cups of tea, you couldn't give your customer a cup of ice? Shady! read more

I went to this McDonalds back May after ordering on their app. I had requested drive thru but when I got there there was construction and it was blocked off. I usually use the drivethru because I have some mobility problems. Anyway I tried calling their number several times but the phone calls were not being picked up. I finally called their customer service and explained the problem. I told them I was parked right at their front door. They said that they would call them and let them know I was there and just to sit tight. 20 minutes later, I called them again. Again they said that they would let them know I was out there waiting. Did I mentioned that this was ine of the days that the temp was in the 90's? After waiting another 20 minutes, I was fuming I called back to tell them to cancel my order and refund my money. They said that someone from the store would be calling me and refund my money. 2 months later and 11 calls to customer service, the situation still hasn't been rectified. I got one message saying called them back finally last week. I called and they again said that they will be calling me back. Again I haven't had a return call. It's now the principal of the matter. I will keep calling them until they returned my money. read more
