The food was old and cold. Didn't get my apple slices in the kid's meal. They put extra cold fries instead but didn't tell me that's what they were doing. read more

There is workers in there b it no one is taking my order. I got here at 12 am. They close at 1am. I been here 20 mins. They are ignoring everyone driving thru. read more

I pulled into the drive-thru at 12:41 AM -- well before the posted 1:00 AM closing time. The automated voice greeted me, but no one took my order. After waiting about five minutes, I pulled out and saw one employee smoking and another taking out the trash. Clearly, they weren't closed yet, but they also weren't serving customers. If they don't want to serve until 1 AM, they shouldn't advertise that you're open until 1 AM. It's frustrating to be turned away when you're still technically open. read more

Ordered our food in the drive thru. Got home, both DQPs were raw. Brought them back, remade both. Got home, one was still entirely raw. Did remake the fries, so that was nice at least. Only reason it's not a 1. read more

McDonald's - The remade DQP - Fast Food Near Me - Hickory, North Carolina

It is curious at this McDonald's that the parking lot is full when there is nobody in the dining room. How is this possible? Are there commuters using this lot as a parking drop off and then leaving their car all day? Also, McDonald's has started a trend where there is no place for parking for dining room customers. At this very location I found myself having to cross the drive-through lane to get into the building...... That's how bad the parking space was and I refuse to do that anymore . I guess I will park in one of the spots....,. I'm not supposed to just for my own safety. read more

Took forever served literally every person before me. Don't go to this location! They do the orders by hand so they can pick and choose!

Horrible service, took 5 times to get our order right. Which was literally just two drinks btw, a Dr Pepper and a Diet Coke. Then when we finally got our drinks it's almost as there was no syrup in my Diet Coke! Literally looking at it, it doesn't even look like coke, how couldn't you tell. Disgusting and disappointing. read more

McDonald's - A messed up Diet Coke - Fast Food Near Me - Hickory, North Carolina

Everytime i eat at this mcdonald's my food is always either missing something or they didn't take something off. I never once have been happy with my meal when getting it from here but it's the only mcdonald's close to me. read more

This is a super busy McDonald's -- especially during lunch hours. It's like a war zone in the parking lot but they tend to handle it like professionals. I should've known better but I was craving a Carmel macchiato so I had to. I waited for a bit to get it but it was quite delicious! Made right! I decided to go in, instead of the long drive-thru lane that wrapped around the building. Note to self -- don't go during lunch! read more

It's snowing and took a walk to McDonald's with my boyfriend because our cars snowed in but anywho we walked there and the dining is closed ok cool so we walked to the drive thru window she saw us and immediately shut the window after her last car and my boyfriend knocked on the window to get her attention but it took her a minute to come back to the window and when she did my bf asked can we order and her reply was "it would be better if you were in a car but yea" and that's when I replied and told my bf I'm good we don't have to order here. The food is already horrible and to have bad customer service on top causes to lose customers and to support you all on foot in the snow I thought this company will see that but didn't.. never going back read more

My partner and I have come to this location a couple of times, it's always a long ass wait, and incompetent ass employees. BUT THIS IS RIDICULOUS. I've seen another review with the same issue but with fries. WHY WAS THERE A HAIR IN MY MCDOUBLE. WHY. WEAR A HAIRNET IF YALL ARE GONNA SHED LIKE DOGS. I threw up, that's absolutely atrocious and unsanitary. Never coming here again, what the hell. Management is just as horrid, cooperate needs to get rid of EVERYONE working there and replace them with people that know food safety and sanitary conditions. This is so infuriating, I know I may seem dramatic but it being an issue on multiple occasions and with other customers as well???? This place is either gonna get shut down or SHUT DOWN. That's fucking nasty. Goodnight. read more

Every single time I go to this McDonalds they make me pull to next window and wait? I always order two double cheeseburgers and fries why does this always seem to be a problem when it's such a common order. Nothing special this is the closest McDonald's to my house and I've been too many McDonald's all over my whole life and never had such a problem, I'm 54 so you do the math. read more

I eat breakfast here daily. Always fresh always amazing service. Some people are just hard to please keep up the good work team.

Fries had a hair in them on top, not eating that. Quarter pounder with bacon and cheese only!! Cashier didn't listen and put ketchup, mustard, onion and pickles on it. Horrible time. 0/5 stars. read more

This used to be good food good service. My lady and I love having Mocha Frappes in the AM we're both elderly and with mild Stomach issues, hence AM Frappes are good. This Place started recently with every excuse for not having Frappes. Now it's the Orders being messed up also. Supposed to open at 5 am M-F, now anywhere from 10-30 mins late and nothing is ready so expect another 10 mins to get your order, McMuffins are always burnt. Anyhow from spending 50 to 75 dollars weekly there we've changed to Hardee's a little further down the road and now a new Starbucks is being built next door to McDonalds, so Will get our Frappes there! 12/2022-1/2023 read more

Each time I order chicken nuggets I always get pure honey. Each Time I visit this location they assume I want honey mustard? Can you just put what I ordered in the bag please!! read more

If you're lucky enough for them to have what you want they will leave something out of the bag. These workers here are completely careless and don't pay an ounce of attention to what they are putting in the bag. Asked for 4 sauces on a 20 nugget order (spicy, which they were sold out of at 6pm) and DIDNT GET A SINGLE SAUCE. What a joke! Stop elsewhere when in this area. What a waste of time and money. read more

the manager was a cunt and didn't even give us all our food. the server was nice tho read more

Stop by for a quick bite. Received this last night. Manager was apologetic and made another one. Not the first time won't be the last I'm sure. From what I hear this happens a lot. read more

McDonald's - Double Quarter Pounder - Fast Food Near Me - Hickory, North Carolina

Why, why! Every single time I go to the drive-through they hand a cup out the window covered in the drink That is covered on the outside with soda! And when I ask for napkins they look at me like I'm crazy and I show them the cup. Without an apology they angrily hand me napkins rolled her eyes and turn the other way. And yet they want us to pay these jerks $15 an hour? And they can't even handle giving someone a drink that's not covered in soda on the outside? They may only deserve what they're getting now and that's it doesn't take rocket science to be clean read more

This one has several issues, first being when order is taken, having to repeat my order 3 times. Ordered a kids nugget meal, no nuggets, who's bagging food and who's checking behind? Last visit for me was when the drink maker preceded to put my drink lid on his shirt, then on top of my full glass of tea. I kindly asked for a new one and he did not understanding why, but did. Then I try this place again, same kid is stocking lids, removed them from the plastic sleeve and holds all the lids against his shirt then stocks them. I asked for a manager this time, but female manager seen no problem with cross contamination of any sort. Her comment; I touch your food-my problem was does my food touch your clothing? A uniform is worn all day, breaks, bathroom, what's splattered on your shirt that I care to have on my lid? Or to the public's in general. That's been the last time I went back. read more

February 12, 2020 McDonald's - Arboretum 3315 Pineville-Matthews Rd. Charlotte, NC 28226 Attn: Store Manager McDonald's Licensee/Owner's 1383 13th Avenue Drive NW Hickory, NC 28601 Attn: Patrick and Heather Joyner McDonald's Corporate Office 2111 McDonald's Dr Oak Brook, IL 60523 Attn: Joe Erlinger - President, McDonald's USA Chris Kempczinski - Chief Executive Officer On Friday February 7th 2020, I had the unfortunate displeasure of visiting the local McDonald's Store at the Arboretum Shopping Center. I believe this to be Store #3601, if my memory serves me correctly. I went through the drive-thru for what should have been a quick and uneventful visit. The issue began at approximately 12:35 that afternoon, when I pulled into the drive-thru line. I started back about three cars order point. It took approximately 10 minutes to move the three car lengths for the opportunity to place my order. A very simple order. A cheeseburger, large Coke with light ice, and a strawberry-banana smoothie. They were unable to provide the smoothie as the machine was down. From the order point to the payment point, it took approximately 15 minutes, moving inches at a time. It then took another 2 minutes or so to get to the actual food window. When I arrived to pick up the food, I was handed the two items that I ordered by a young man. At that time, I asked to speak with the manager. A woman in a light blue shirt came to the window. I addressed her advising that I had been in line for over 25 minutes to get my order. Her explanation was that they were short staffed. I explained to her that this was not really my concern and that is something that she needs to take up with her employees. I advised that she might want to consider closing one or both of the drive-thru order points in order to drive the customers inside. She told me that they were backed up inside as well, and the proceeded to slam the window shut on me. I stayed at that window awaiting someone to open it back up so that I could re-address the issue with the manager. Side-Note---Kudos to the young man at the window that was handing out orders, as he realized the situation and immediately started to collect completed orders and bring them outside to customers waiting in the car line. Meantime, another young lady opened the window and told me that I had to move, that I was holding up the line. I explained that I would move when the manager apologized for slamming the window on me. Another female employee then got behind that young lady and stated matter-of-factly that the manager did not owe me an apology. She then proceeded to state that I had to move and that they had called the police. I then advised that I would leave when the police arrived. The next major issue was when one of those young ladies came to the window, told me to move and that if I did not move, she would throw HOT WATER at me, as she picked up a cup. Of course, I said, please do that. Knowing that we were in a stalemate, she also slammed the window closed and proceeded to flip the bird at me through the window. With all of this said, this was a customer service situation at its worst, and is wrong on so many levels. As soon a I got home, I immediately called corporate customer service explaining the details as mentioned above, I specifically asked if that conversation was being recorded and was told that it was. The young woman in corporate was extremely nice and handled the situation appropriately. I asked her to pass the information on to the owners/operators. Within a very short time-frame, I received a call back from a woman who stated that she was in customer service at the McDonald's Hickory office. Again, I readdressed the situation with her and was received positively. When she asked how to proceed, I advised that perhaps the owner operators might want to take a trip to Charlotte to visit this store and to see what was really going on. I offered to meet with them to further discuss. At that time, I asked that at a minimum one or both of the owners give me a call. On Saturday, February 8th, I left a message with the Hickory office stating that I had not received a call, and that this will not go away. Fast forward to Monday, February 10th, 2020. I still had not heard anything at all from them so I placed a call back to the Hickory office. The young lady that I had previously spoken with at the Hickory office spoke with me again. I explained that I had yet to hear from anyone. She explained that that she had passed the info on to the regional manager and was disappointed that I had yet to hear anything. I iterated that my expectation was to hear from the owners. After speaking with her, I called McDonald's Corporate again to explain my disappoint at not hearing anything from the Hickory owners. I figured that this might shake things up and I would hear something. Much to my dismay, today is Wednesday, February 12th, 2020, and crickets. read more

I've been coming to this McDonald's for a while it's fast and clean they help you right away hands down the best one near me so far

Standard McDonalds. The drive thru was simple to get through, which we appreciated. Customer service was good.

Cashier felt phone and friend more important than customers. Asked for lunch and told no just biscuits... At 945am. Felt put off by lack of service.. read more

it used to be every time you go to get a ive cream the excuse was the machine was down and now when its got to when you order frappes the excuse is now the same thing it's not working this is ridiculous you shouldn't hav to drive all over the state to find a McDonald's that has a working machine is it the machine is really not working or they are just to lazy to clean them so they shut it down and use that it's not working as a excuse read more

There are two places I prefer my sweet tea to come from. Here or Cracker Barrel. Restrooms have always been clean. Lobby is maintained. Tables are wiped down. It's a nice McDonald's. read more

DO NOT WASH THERE HANDS !! Pick food off the floor, mop and touch my food like I was supposed to eat it after

Long wait in Drive through, only to get home and find my order was incorrect. Asked for 2 McGriddles with no cheese, received 2 McGriddles with no egg, only cheese and sausage. Tried to call to speak to the Manager, however the phone was busy for over an hour before i gave up. Customers should not need to open every sandwich and inspect it to make sure they are right. This after a long wait and a disinterested employee in the window is just inexcusable. I will not go back. If i could give it 0 stars i would. read more

So I came here and ordered three COFFEES, they were very simple, and we had to wait in line for ten minutes and then when we get to the window they only had two. They told us to go and wait, we waited for 10 more minutes. Then we saw someone pull up and wait for 2 minutes and they got their FOOD first. My mom finally just got up and went inside, when she got in there, he just then started making the coffee?! He didn't even have it made yet! He made it I like 2 seconds. I would not recommend this McDonald's, there coffee was alright though. read more

Probably one of the cleanest and friendlier McDonald's I've ever been to. Only compliant is that it was about 63 degrees in there.

My husband went to get me one chicken biscuit. They had him pull up for one biscuit. When he bought it to me the biscuit was hard as a rock and we dont live 5 min away. Why pull when the biscuit is not going to to be fresh. I understand people are lazy may have had people call out or just short handed but pulling a customer for fresh product needs to be that..no excuses...should have just gave him the biscuit...thanks for not letting me have my breakfast this morning....dont keep up the good work...u get no stars but it wants me to put something... read more

Late night shift was very polite, they gave us fresh food without us requesting it. I know that the later it gets there tends to be some really rude people out and it can get to you but we truly appreciated it read more
