One of the few McDonald's that I've had a great experience at! It's located at the end of the busy downtown Royal Oak district so you can expect it to be pretty busy. When I stopped in, it was moderately busy and I just wanted to get a quick burger with some reward points and be on my way. The burger was really good and piping hot! One of the best McDonald's burgers I've had! read more

McDonald's - Fast Food Near Me - Royal Oak, Michigan

See all

Normally this McDonalds is simply bad. Cold food. Fries soggy from being cooked in old oil, long waits.... And tonight they came up with a new way to sick. They arr open bit, after the app let me place and pay for an order, they tell me when i pull up "we are only handling door dash orders". Really? Your app users cand just screw off? But you fill Door Dash? Just one more reason this location is crap. And if you look at my reviews you will aee I rarely give 1 or 2 star reviews. But trust me... this location earned it. read more

Well, it's McDonalds, so that tells you all you need to know. Both times prior when I ordered a Big Mac with no cheese, it came with cheese, so my recommendation would always be to check your food at the window. Most recently, I ordered and selected for pickup in the spots off to the side because I was pressed for time. Instead, it took twenty minutes to come out, and the employee who brought it out tried to argue with me, saying that I had selected it for pick-up in the drive-thru. I hadn't and showed her my online receipt and label on the bag that said I hadn't, but she continued to stand at my car and argue for three minutes. Honestly, just try a salad or something; McDonalds isn't worth the hassle anymore. read more

there were 2 hairs baked into my bacon egg and cheese biscuit how does this even happen

Stopped to grab some burgers to go. The drive through line was very long so i went inside. They have the huge order screens, but they had a counter person, too. She was nice. Food was prepared very quickly and delivered to the counter politely. The drink station was filthy. read more

McDonald's - a counter top with a bunch of ice cubes - Fast Food Near Me - Royal Oak, Michigan

Keeps hours online as 24 hours however closes before 11pm every day! Got yelled through the speaker for trying the drive thru at 11:08

Went through drive-through at 6:50 AM and no one answered in the drive-through. It's almost like the workers don't want to take your order. It was very unfortunate. read more

The manager was rude and did not try to address the problem, The machine was having some kind of glitch and instead of trying to fix it she had an attitude and was very rude about the situation and I would completely understand if she had a long day but it was 11am to describe her she was skinny with no edges and a huge forehead read more

Food hot and fresh Service hospitable and polite Ambiance my daughter played on the play scape, it was clean and had ac unlike some McDonalds read more

I come here pretty often and at random times in the day. That being said, I am quite surprised about the 2 star rating here. Every single time I come here the food is fresh, the staff is extremely kind and pleasant, they always have my food well organized in the bag and have never forgotten anything in my order! This is definitely my go-to McDonald's. They're the best :) read more

one star all the way . dont get the orders right . missing items from the classic cheese burger mainly missing the burger itself . poorly run the people working there need to be better trained and take pride in there work , or bring in mature workers older workers to get the job done right read more

Isn't open 24 hours needs to take that off maps if they aren't gonna be open. we drove so far just for it to be closed...

This McDonald's is the worst. I placed an mobile order with car side pick up. It's been 37 minutes and I still don't have my order. The lobby is locked, they won't answer the phone and the drive thru line (which I am now in) has not moved in over 10 minutes. At this point I would just say screw it but their drive thru line has raised curbs and I can't get out of line. read more

The guy collecting money at 3 pm was so professional I just had to write a review about him he was fantastic! Even the guy who handed me my food was super nice and I told him the guy that collected my money was overly nice and it was a great experience! Both windows were overly nice and I really appreciate that for fast food restaurant. Both guys asked me how my day was going the guy who collected my money told me to please drive safe and have a wonderful day! Keep up the good work there guys. I hope your boss recognizes you for your work on August 12, 2024. Right around 3 pm on Monday! I never feel composed to write something, but this time I did! Thank you for being so wonderful and I appreciate your professionalism, especially at McDonald's! read more

They really do have the world's best and most famous fries for sure. I have eaten McD'S for American comfort food when I have been abroad and tired of eating the local cuisine after a couple of weeks of it. I used to love their simple small regular cheeseburger, the one that would come with the happy meals. I would really like to see more food options for vegetarians besides a salad. How great it would be to see an impossible patty on their burgers or in their breakfast biscuit sandwiches, I would indulge once a week on some vegetarian burger and biscuit options if they existed. Many restaurants do so why not McD'S? read more

Drive up speaker garbled, one sandwich cold, other one hard/stale bread, no ketchup with fries.

Alright listen up, if you are giving this McDonald a low rating you better have a decent reason other than they didn't want to chat with you after you were barking your order in their ear. This location is the Ruth Chris of McDonald. When you wake up fighting for your life at dawn on Sunday morning in dire need of a meal that will push you from pre diabetes to needing a lil bit of evening insulin- these disciples of the lord are whomst you rely on in your time of need. These employees might not have a 5 star attitude but they sure know how to make a delicious Big Mac. I don't go to McDonald to have a meaningful conversation, that's what your church's fish fry is for. You can't expect a minimum wage employee to have the will to live enough to want to chat with you about the gaping pothole out front of this business or your nieces pronouns, save that subpar conversation to make your family uncomfortable at thanksgiving. If said pothole bothers you so much, DIY some asphalt and use the stick up your ass to spread it evenly amongst the large cracks in the road. Anyways, this McDonald always appropriately salts their fries and I don't age 5 years in the drive thru line- these kids got hustle. And that's what matters when you go to McDonalds. May god grant everyone that works at the Golden Arches eternal peace and bring your dreams to fruition read more

door dash orders always come up fast. I like the breakfast items a lot. The chicken nuggets are good.

What a piece of shit restaurant!!! They close at 7 pm but don't put a barricade to stop cars from coming in, and when you get to the window and it's 6:55. They tell you sorry!!! Bullshit!!! read more

I don't have a lot of vices. I don't gamble. I don't smoke. I don't imbibe in alcohol. No illicit drug use. But I do have a mad addiction to McDonald's Diet Coke. Say what you will about cans and bottles...a fountain cup of McDiet is carbonated ambrosia. Each McDonald's location has machines that perfectly dispense the correct amount of liquid into the cup. There are dummy lines on the cup that tell McWorkers how much ice goes into the cup for the perfect pour. But at the Royal Oak McD's, they skimp on ice consistently...and there is always an inch of empty cup. I don't think that it's an ice shortage issue, being the dead of Detroit winter. I've been to locations around the area, and they get it right. Even the one on the scary part of Woodward in Detroit. So why do I keep going to the one in Royal Oak? It's convenient. It's right by my kid's school. And I don't have to get out of my car. I complain each time they skimp on my McDiet, and they will sometimes give me a new one. But I've been told they can't do anything because they are "short-staffed." One other gripe...items you can get 2 for a dollar. Like apple pies. If you say "two apple pies," they charge $1.50 (since they are $.75 each). If you want the discount, you have to specifically say "two for a dollar apple pies, please." read more

McDonald's - The dummy line for ice - Fast Food Near Me - Royal Oak, Michigan

So Tim Elena and Debbie gave me a superior customer service at McDonald's. They told me that they just clean their Mc flurry machine and he still were persistent at making me a Mc flurry afterwards I was very grateful most McDonald's just tell me know but they were extremely friendly and I was super happy to have my midnight snack it made me very happy oh I already said that anyway thank you for allowing me to review this wonderful McDonald's this is the only McDonald's that I've experienced nothing but happiness this is the type of McDonald's one could only dream of. I strongly encourage to lift the minimum wage at this McDonald's to $15 an hour because they deserve it if you don't do it Bernie Sanders might. read more

Don't come here after 6 or 7 pm, cause you never know what you're gonna get. Ordered an apple pie and it looked like a piece of petrified wood, but of course I was already home. Must do a better job at quality control, no matter the time of day. read more

Really slow service, I've been in 8 car line in front of me for over 10 min and the front car hasn't even moved read more

McDonald's - a view from inside a car - Fast Food Near Me - Royal Oak, Michigan

Every time i come to this location, i wonder why i do. The employees are all completely rude and disrespectful. They told people that walked in the dining room it would be a 20 min wait on all orders. There was ONE PERSON ahead of me and it STILL took over 15 min for me to get a single taco and chips n cheese. That's it. Over 15 min. A customer came in that had gone through the drive thru and got the wrong order. They were completely rude and when he left, the cashier went on about how fat he was and that he didn't need it anyway. As im eating, they are literally yelling about the "shit all over the bathroom." This location is always dirty, always rude, and never a good experience. DO NOT RECOMMEND TO ANYONE. ANY. ONE. that cashier should be reprimanded for making fun of customers. Worst experience in a restaurant ever. read more

This McDonald's is CONSISTENTLY the worst McDonald's I have ever been to. If you're in the area go to the one on Rochester rd instead. The service is terrible each time, always forget sauces, napkins and straws. The food is always cold and fries mushy. Last time I received a burger with 2 bottom buns. No top. This last visit will be the LAST. Oh and you'll wait in line for hours. So slow read more

While I understand working on a holiday is never enjoyable making it the customers problem is not acceptable. Associate yells at the top of her lungs our food is ready but fails to give us our sauces or drinks. Another associate was extremely polite and got us our drinks and even offered a drink carrier and apologized. The woman in the purple shirt with glasses then I can hear sitting at the back with my child constantly cussing and complaining the whole time. I feel as a customer I know more about their staffing issue as they close at 4pm today than I should have. As she tried to rush us out while we were still eating I finally said something. She then proceeded to scream at me and try to continue her rants. Thankfully someone else came to talk to me as the whole rest of the staff sent this crazy person outside. My husband got this all on video and we will be following up with corporate as well. Thank you for ruining our holiday and rare family time we got together after leaving the zoo because you were miserable. I won't even comment on the trash on tables or how we had to go up 3 different times to get our items because this woman was more worried about getting back to her phone and complaining than doing her job. If she would have gotten fired for not coming in today, but remains employed here after her behavior it says more about the owners and management than her as it seems tolerated. read more

Completely HORRIBLE. Ordered a frappe, and had shards of hard plastic in my drink. Called to let them know, she was very defensive. Said that is not possible and all she could do was replace it. Some pieces are so tiny, I know I must've swallowed some. Will never go back. read more

McDonald's - a cup of coffee on a table - Fast Food Near Me - Royal Oak, Michigan

Shockingly horrible management for an establishment whose system is built like a machine and has been refined for generations. If you can't keep a dining room clean at 3pm.. And the food was thrown together (think: Micheal Douglas in Falling Down), very salty and why would you give me fresh fries and my child old/cold garbage? It's a shame the playscape was installed here. read more

If I can do no stars I would... people here are rude and ghetto! They need to more polite and not give attitude... and the manager Jamie instead of fixing the problem he let's people act like ghetto! Not a right way to run a business never will go here again and such a hole in the wall McDonald's if I every seen one! Best stay away from this place read more

Seriously you guys? It's 630 am and I sat there for 9 minutes waiting for, wait for it, A COFFEE. A coffee. I had to drive away. Who knows how long it was actually going to take. Get your stuff together sheesh. read more

Close to home and they've always been friendly. I don't see what all the fuss is about. It's McDonald's and most of these reviewers were expecting something that wasn't? I've always went here and had great food and service. Thanks to all the people working here who are doing their best every day. read more

The food is decent here most of the time. However, it's slow as I don't know what due to there only being one drive thru line instead of two. The customer service is some of the worst I've seen out of all McDonalds locations. I gave my feedback to corporate about this location and it did get a little better. However, it's still slow most of the time and I rarely get thanked or told to have a nice day. They usually just give me my food and say "you're all set" or thru don't say a word. I'm sure that everyone who works there is doing the best they can. They either need to hire different people or they need to do a better job of training them. I almost always leave this place in a worse mood than when I came in. read more

The customer service at this location is horrible. There are better places to eat with much better food. If you place an order and they get it wrong the person behind the register will try and blame it on you. If you want a Mc Donald's meal it's worth driving somewhere else. read more

Every time I eat here I hate myself! The fries are ok but the McDouble..... It's like crack. And you have a 50% chance of their pop being flat... But the McDouble!!!! I'll still eat here... Because McDonalds owns a piece of my fatty heart. read more

This McDonald's does a pretty good job, especially lately. The food is good and fresh and they handle special orders fairly well. I'd like to see them get better at parking cars when the first person's order isn't ready. I've been in the line waiting for 5-10 minutes before when they could have just parked a few cars. Overall though, delicious, good clean location. read more

This is my all-time favorite McDonald's. The food is always quick, hot and fresh. The people are always kind and professional. If there was only one that guy nose in the world. This one would be it. read more

Bad service. Slow service. Rude service. Truly the worst McDonalds in the country. I don't understand how the owner keeps this franchise.

The drive-thru service leaves quite a bit to be desired. If you manage to come during the day and order breakfast or lunch, the service can be rather QUICK. At night, just like the Sonic nearby can be a totally different story. Overall, they never have gotten my order wrong here and have always been quick to fix problems when they arise with what you've gotten. They even tell you to pull over to a special parking space if your food takes too long. At least they have the decency to do so, the Sonic across the way doesn't. Not bad. read more

Terrible establishment. I went at 10pm, and no one answered the drive thru, they locked the doors, and did not answer the phone, even though I clearly saw them standing in the back. Undoubtedly the worst service I have ever seen. read more

I have never been treated respectfully at this McDonalds location. On more than one occasion I have left this business irritated by the way the staff behaved. Whether it's being able to hear the staff openly make fun or me or the guests that I am with or being harassed for my phone number by the drive thru employees. read more
