This is a review of The McDonald's in Randolph, Vermont, right off the exit on 89. This is in no…read moreway a review for all of McDonald's or McDonald's food as a whole The Randolph, Vermont McDonald's is The GOAT of all McDonald's. What we say amongst ourselves here in Vermont is, "IYKYK." But now I'm here to tell ALL the rest of you too. Now everyone can know. It only just occurred to me to review this McDonald's online and the reason to review is because this McDonald's is just exceptional. So there is a McDonald's located in an extremely easy-on-easy-off location from 89 in Randolph, VT. It's kind of been carved into a very steep location, so the entry/exit and drive thru and parking lot have some specific rules for entry/exit and one way driving which requires you to pay attention (I'm talking to all you all From Away...get what I'm saying?? This isn't your mediocre McDonald's with super easy driving rules). Basic things about The Randolph McDonald's that sets them securely above/ahead of every other McDonald's I've been to in this country and abroad: EVERY person I've ever interacted with working at The Randolph McDonald's (for years now) has been, basically, awesome. Friendly, upbeat, happy, chatty and doing a great job. Clearly enjoying themselves at their jobs. Which is what we ALL should demand of our work!! My theory is that The Randolph McDonald's hires A LOT of teenagers. Well, I know, for a fact that they hire a lot of local teenagers. Teenagers are great workers/employees/ team members. As the owner/boss you must provide effective, empowering, NON TOXIC management to get the best of out of them. But, (SPOILER ALERT!!!) You need effective, empowering, NON TOXIC management in any workplace to get the best out of your team... Happy employees do a better job. The place is SPOTLESS. Including the bathrooms. I have never gotten my order wrong in any way. Which, if you've ever visited a McDonald's, you know is pretty extraordinary. I don't eat beef, pork or poultry. So my go to McDonald's meal is a Filet 'O Fish with fries and a water or a medium Coke if I feel like I need a hit of sugar and caffeine. However! I never want the cheese that comes on a Filet 'O Fish and, until very recently, I never wanted the Tartare Sauce either. Honestly, it's probably easier to get the Filet 'O Fish entirely "plain" than to get it with Tartare Sauce but no cheese. Whichever way I order it, they always get it right at the Randolph McDonald's . Always. Also?? It's always HOT and fresh and my bun is soft. And the fries! They are always also hot and fresh. I mention these things because it is not "the norm" at other McDonald's. At other McDonald's I order my Filet 'O Fish and then I just eat it the way it comes because it's really not worth it to go inside or circle back around and try to get it remade the way I wanted it. The Randolph, Vermont McDonald's is the only McDonald's I that has never messed my order up. Not once. Far be it for me to recommend any restaurant that is not an independent, chef owned spot. But I also happen to believe McDonald's is not competing with those of us who ARE independent, chef owned and I recommend The Randolph Vermont McDonald's. In a huge world of McDonald's The Randolph, VT McDonald's is The Best. Full Stop.

Quick summary: Amazing burgers - and this claim from someone who is not a huge burger fan…read more I ate here for the first time last week - while on vacation. My wife is a big burger fan (FYI: she raved about her burger, too), so I decided to try the place out, since we were in the area. Bit hard to locate, but parking was fine. Since the weather was good, we ate outside. There is both open air & tent-covered seating options. Speaking of seating - you must memorize your table # BEFORE going inside to order as meals are delivered to your table. I ordered the "Big Daddy M": 6oz beef, medium-cooked, with Bayley Hazen blue cheese, caramelized onions, bacon bits, garlic aioli, bibb lettuce and red onions. What a heavenly, savory combination. Each bite was full of flavor. And the French Fries? Well, super tasty as well - I ate every potato fried crumb. At other places, fries are usually bland, but not here. The order service inside was pleasant and quick; be sure to note the chalk board with a list of food options (e.g. my Wife ordered a custom burger, just the way she wanted). After ordering we went back outside to our #'d table - wait for the food was relatively quick. When done eating, just leave your baskets, etc. on the table (there is a sign stating this practice). Note: while I did not have kids here, there were plenty of families with young kids & toddlers. I definitely want to try this place a 2nd time.

More akin to a breakfast panini, the gooey fluffy egg and cheese, crunchy bacon, and bright onions were perfectly supported by two slices of crunchy, crusty toasted sourdough. Such great flavor! The iced maple latte was a bit on the sweet side but still very much enjoyed it. TBD on the scone, but judging by how busy it was, it is gonna be great! Service: Friendly group passionate about what they do! Ambiance: Small town, comfortable bakery where I assume all the netizens gather.

The scone was okay, as well as the latte...the coffee was dark roast and WAY too much for wanting to enjoy a simple latte. We will say that the customer service was great. The staff that took our order seemed a little overwhelmed, but she was kind and provided great customer service. Our thought is that while the food and drinks are mediocre, the bakery appears to be known for their bread. We would have loved to have the opportunity to try the bread, they did look delish!!

Upon walking in you'll notice that it is a very small restaurant with their lights dimmed low. The bar area is ready to be taken in photo and put in one of those decorations magazines. The hostess was great, the waiter we got was really friendly, knowledgeable and the food recommendations were FANTASTIC. We got the chicken wings with pickled carrots and house ranch, the side of pulled pork, their Pig Mac burger (a double) and their duck fat French fries (OMG). Everything was good, we would just look at each other and say "did you try this, did you have a bite of that?" my only regret is that I didn't get a chance to try their skillet cookie and that we live more than an hour away. We will definitely go back and eat at this restaurant again.

It gets busy and they don't take reservations. They do have an online waitlist but we went around 4:30 and didn't have to utilize it. Our party of 6 climbed camel's hump earlier in the day and showed up famished. We knew this was the right pig out spot for us to refuel from the moment we walked in, smelled the food and saw the amazing ceiling-high bar. The smoked meats were outstanding. High quality cuts smoked to perfection. We had an order of every meat they offer and they were all just as good. That being said, I could go back just for the cornbread w maple butter. My word, it was like eating cake for dinner. The Mac & cheese was ooey and gooey with a nice crispy top. And the cookie skillet was like a party in your mouth. We didn't think we'd be able to finish everything but there wasn't a crumb to be found when we were done. As far as service goes, it was as good as I've ever had at a place like this. Our server was laid back yet always on top of things. We never waited for anything and her timing was perfect. There's outdoor seating if that's your jam. We sat in the large table by the window and got to look out on main st. It couldn't have been more perfect.
