  • "From Paul taking my call telling him there would be loads of us, he ensured we were looked after, a separate space was left and staff member Sarah looked after us. Thank you"
  • "Always had very good service in store, today a man called James helped with our order and came over numerous times to bring my little boy something e.g sauce/colouring stuff or just to give him a Hi5. Great service!"
  • "The guy who handed everyone their order was so cheery, spoke to everyone as though they were the first people he'd served that day. He told everyone without exception to have a great day. It was nice."

Cons:

  • "Considering the volume of people that use this, I found it clean. Service was good and received my order quickly considering the lack of staff on duty."

Cons:

  • "They are actually quite nice and understanding for a McDonalds :) I'll give them 4 starts because, even when busy, they always try to do their best work."

  • "Waited 15min for food. Fresh fries got mixed with cold fries. Burger was cold & oil could do changing looking at the burger & fries."

Safety and Accessibility

Pros:

  • "This McDonald's has a self service machine where you can order your meal to eat in or take out."
  • "Tip for people, go straight upstairs where you can order from one of the terminals and get it all brought up to you."
  • "As with all McDonald's cheap fast food. Seating is available on ground level and upper level."

Cons:

  • "This McDonalds is not a safe environment."
  • "Does management even care? The place just doesnt feel safe anymore, something needs to change."
  • "Couldn't find anywhere downstairs so had to struggle up two flights of stairs. Need a lift for disabled or designated disabled only tables."
  • "Only few tables downstairs as 1st floor was closed for cleaning."
  • "Only 2 star due to the fact that they are so linient with the whole mamba situation in Derby me and my girlfriend were stuck in Derby so we thought we would go and have McDonald's we were so put off by the whole drug situation and how they would let them into the building where they were eyeing up people's belongings and also just sitting there with no food what so ever ! Disgusting."
  • "(NO DRIVE-THRU) Don't let Google fool you like it did me there is no drive-thru it is all pedestrianised."
