McDonald's alien
Max W.

Obviously the only McDonald's probably in the world worth going to. I don't know if there is any cooler McDonald's than this. I hope to take my kids here someday so they can imagine being inside the ufo playplace! Lots of cool lights on the exterior and silly space themed art on the inside. Workers were attentive and focused on maintaining cleanliness. :) I did not get to eat anything from here, so I can't speak on food quality.

I had two cheeseburgers and they were better than mine in California. I may have been hungry or they were better quality. Service was good with nothing to really complain about. Ambiance is the winner...Spaceship and aliens made for an interesting McDonalds like the oldies one in Chicago. Overall a nice touristy McDonalds.

This is the coolest McDonald's I've ever been to. It's a space ship. The place where you order is regular side . The problem person working there was very helpful. The spaceship was the kids play area. My son is into aliens and he loved it. We had lunch for under $30 you really can't beat that.

This McDonald's earns five stars for sure. First for being the coolest McDonald's ever. On top of that it was clean inside and out food was fast, fresh, and hot. It's fun and worth the visit.

UFO themed McDonald's!

This McDonald's gets three stars just for embracing the UFO culture that is Roswell. The Quarter Pounder with Cheese, Big Mac and two Fries we picked up our first night in Roswell were all hot fresh and tasty, even though it was close to closing time. That all adds up to five stars!

UFO-shaped Mickey D's!

A four-star review from me for a McDonald's is a monumental surprise. But this isn't your grandma's Mickey D's. On a road trip through New Mexico, we spent a night in Roswell. Due to the Roswell incident, Roswell makes a lot of money off of tourism and really plays off of the alien theme. With alien-themed restaurants, museums, gift shops, etc. all over the place, McDonald's, out of everyone really stands out. That's because the freaking fast food joint is shaped like a UFO. You have to stop by and take pictures because it's that cool. I'm not a fan of the food, though I will say their chicken McNuggets are solid. Though I guess it's not real chicken. We went inside as we felt a need to give them our business given how cool the place is. The alien theme continues inside as the play area is alien-themed. McDonald's characters, including Ronald McDonald, hang from the ceiling in astronaut suits and stuff like that. Very, very cool. Well done, McDonald's.

Yes, it really is worth stopping in here.

Five Stars? For a McDonald's review? Am I crazy?! No. I am not. This is five stars as good as it gets (at McDonalds). Yes there is a bit of a caveat here, but let me "ehhsplain." On a recent trip through Roswell we stopped in at this charming "Space Ship" themed Mcdonald's to use the restroom and get some sodas . Then I was all, "What the hell, I'll have an Egg McMuffin." So B. got breakfast too, and we had the nicest time I've had at any fast food restaurant ever. The manager of this store obviously goes out of their way to be inclusive of EVERYONE when they hire, and the employees were SO genuinely nice and friendly. The store was immaculately clean, and was decorated with fun, spacey/alien type things, like Grimace in astronaut gear etc. Way more thought went into theming this restaurant than the boring, green wooden aliens outside most of the other fast food places along the main strip. The food was fine, I mean, its Mikki D's, so it is what it is. Stop in here for the experience, and have a Mcmuffin while you're at it.

We had a wonderful experience here just last week. I visited with my friends (who are all local) and we had a great time eating the food. The fun aliens, UFOs, and space decor add to an exciting experience, and is done in a way that isn't too much or too cheesy, just plain old fun! The big reason why I am writing this positive review, though, is because while we were dining in, the coolest and most kind guy walked up to our table. He checked in on how we were liking everything, and how the food was tasting. Great at-table service one wouldn't expect at any fast food restaurant! After we responded positively about everything, he offered my boyfriend a refill of FRIES and offered me a refill on my Caramel Iced Coffee: all on him! He asked if he could get us anything else on the menu - his treat. While everyone in our party declined (we were already full of the food we had, and I did not need another coffee at 10pm), he introduced himself as the owner and told him he was happy we were enjoying everything, and to find him if we needed anything. He did this to several other tables, and made sure everyone was having the best time he could offer. This was extremely memorable for him to offer such unexpected refills, great service, and the kindest introduction. I would come here anytime I am in need of a McDonalds (drive-thru OR dine-in), want to show the alien/UFO spirit of Roswell to a visitor of ANY age, or hope to see the coolest owner in town. Thank you!

It was a very cool experience just because of the space theme. Other than that just a normal USA McDonalds.

Inside, it all looks like a regular franchise, until you go towards the back and sit in the spaceship.

The wait was a bit long as I ordered online and still had to wait a while after getting there, but they were VERY busy and I imagine they were one of the only places open late on a Tuesday night. We noticed a lot of the local restaurants were closed on Tuesdays. Food was delicious as expected. Service was very good as well.

Disappointing Curbside Experience - Not Worth the Wait…read more I placed a curbside order at 8:13 PM and didn't leave until 8:56 PM--a 43-minute wait for a to-go meal. I even called the store at 8:45 and was told my food would be brought out. It wasn't. Another customer who arrived after me got their food first. Only then did a staff member ask if I was still waiting and finally brought my order. Turns out my food had been sitting under the heat lamp the entire time. The Dr Pepper Blackberry Shake had to be remade on the spot because it was no longer presentable (on the plus side, my wife loved the shake). Unfortunately, the rest was a mess: Cold burgers Terrible fries (I had to reheat them in my air fryer) One burger was supposed to have everything except mustard, but came completely plain A manager (I believe named Dan) spoke with me but said there was nothing they could do about a refund because it was an online order. I spent $44 for what was supposed to be a quick meal. For that price and time, I could've sat down at Applebee's, ordered three full-size burgers with drinks and fries, tipped 20%, and still spent less money for better service and food. Chili's and BWW offer similar deals. Really disappointed this time. Hopefully they can improve the curbside process, because this was not Whataburger's best. At least, I hope it's not.

We first arrived around 2:30 am after driving from Albuquerque to Roswell hoping it would be lit up but the lights were off. The good thing was the parking lot was empty but its not as exciting with no lights. When we came back it was for dinner and the thing I was most curious about was what was in the UFO part. Its a classic indoor McDonalds play area with good AC and appropriately themed characters I don't see anymore like Ronald, Grimmer, and Birdie. You order at giant screen and our food was standard BigMac and fries that tasted fine. You can buy T-shirts from here but they are only available in mornings on certain days. Good to stop at for the novelty and right acrosss the street is a GIANT alien statue that is 2 stories tall outside the Dunkin Donuts so you can get photos/video of this McDonalds and the giant alien at one stop.

We rolled into Roswell to do some sight seeing and this place was right behind our hotel - perfect. It was a Monday at 1:30p and the place was half full. Nobody at the hostess station, but we can see staff sees us so we wait and wait and wait. Finally we get a table and we realize, while the place is half full, there are 3 large parties (10+ people) and the bar is packed (not a seat to be had). We should have just left, but they grabbed our drink order and told us one of the groups was leaving and it was all good. Yeah, no, it wasn't. The Mormon missionary group of about a dozen next to us seemed to have a table, 12 waters and EACH individually ordered a take out meal and had to b checked out as 12 different tickets! The other table of ten on our right seemed to have put in drink and food orders and had been waiting for who knows how long. Finally, after another 15m the hostess asked for our drink orders again and said she would get them as our waitress was taxed. OK. She comes over with two random beers and I look at her and am like, this isn't what we ordered (twice) and she just looks puzzled (about 5 minutes later after wandering and asking around it ends up being two drinks for the table next to us). We still have no drinks. We are about to leave when the waitress comes and apologizes and runs to get our beers. Then she gets our order and can tell we are little annoyed. I must say after this everything came out fast and we got out in like 20m after that - because who wants to sit around and be ignored anymore. Not a great experience. Food was fine. Service was abysmal.
