    Pop's Italian Beef Sandwich.

    I was excited to try Pop's Italian Beef & Sausage in Lockport, Illinois. We ordered two beef sandwiches with sweet peppers and mozzarella cheese, Corned Beef Brisket on Rye with Swiss cheese that costs $11.99, and an Italian sausage sandwich with giardiniera. The beef sandwiches where absolutely horrible! Tasted water logged, like it was frozen, freezer burnt and then microwaved. The sweet peppers were huge clumps, unsliced, undercooked and inedible. The cheese was weird and hardly any beef was put on the disgusting sandwich. I took two bites and tossed it in the garbage. The expensive corned beef sandwich was very skimpy on the meat and cheese. The Italian sausage sandwich was ok but I thought it would be grilled, it tasted microwaved, the giardiniera was also strange. Most Chicago Style restaurants use Marconi Chicago Style Giardiniera. The homemade potato chips were very good. Poor Boy's restaurant in Kankakee blows the doors off of Pop's.

    $8 for a kids meal is nuts. Especially since it doesn't even come with much of anything to feed even a kid!

    I am EXTREMELY FURIOUS with what happened this morning at this specific McDonald's location. I…read moreordered at the kiosk this morning. 1 Sausage McGriddle and 1 Sausage Biscuit Value Meal. After using the kiosk I don't get a receipt. That always happens. The problem comes with the entire staff working there this morning and especially the person by the name of "Chloe" that took care of my order 777. Throws my order on the counter, quietly says my number and walks away. Well... I'm missing parts of my order. The Large Coke I ordered is missing. So, I now stand there for over a minute and not 1 employee walks by the front by the registers in the front where food is placed. I literally had to walk into the back where employees are making food to get somebodies attention for help. The same "Chloe", who screwed up my order tells me I can't be back here, and I brush her off and talk to somebody else and tell them I've been just standing up front and missing part of my order and I would like this fixed. I finally get my missing Coke and leave. The best part is the manager on duty, based on uniform being worn, is just standing there where the food is being prepared with his jaw dropped not knowing what to do. While what looks like the Ass. Manager is too busy on her phone, sitting in a booth and drinking a can of Red Bull. I also was not the only person whose order was screwed up in the 5-10 minutes I was in this location. Somebody had come in, that placed an order threw the drive thru, and was missing there drink as well. I find it pretty damn sad that I have to walk by into McDonald's kitchen to get service and my order corrected. The Manager on shift doesn't even help when I have to walk back there and just stands there. Other employees even had to tell this "Chloe" to stay quiet and quit interfering. God forbid I wanted to pay with cash this morning, I never would've been served. This "Chloe" needs to be fired and changes need to be done where people can get proper service.

    I went to McDonald's today and ordered a large order ( sorry ) and these two workers were so nice!…read moreI don't know their names, but they were working at the drive- thru and the lady had three facial piercings (very pretty btw ) and dyed red strains of hair and the men had dreads and pretty sure was wearing glasses. Those two workers really made my day with their kind and joyful energy! Recommend coming to this McDonalds when those two are on their shift.

    This location serves tasty food from a friendly staff at a reasonable price. It's clean, inviting,…read morehas a family atmosphere, and makes sure all patrons are happy when leaving. They have very tasty burgers that are of decent size (though I'd recommend at least a double if you have a slightly larger than normal appetite) paired with near-perfectly cooked fries and a menu that will hold it's own against all the other big players. They also have CRISPY chicken sandwiches, my favorite being the spicy one - it's very tasty! I must also mention that they have, what I think to be, the BEST honey mustard. Stop in if you want a solid meal that isn't from the normal big players. If you are already well-versed in Culver's then also stop in and try it!

    Come on guys... this was just ridiculous. We waited for 45 minutes for 2 kids cheese burger meals,…read morea double cheeseburger basket and a single cheeseburger with pickles. When we finally got our food: 1 it was cold. 2 you FORGOT the double cheeseburger. You come back with another burger, didn't even wait 2 seconds to make sure all was good. You gave us the wrong burger..... My husband was starving. Not what he wanted. We had a long day, wanted something quick, and somewhat good. Culver's is usually a decent pick for us. This was awful. We will stick to the Culver's location we usually go to in Shorewood. We were passing through Lockport and wanted to eat quicker. Our mistake. Service was sub par and the food even more so. Avoid Lockport.
