Cons:

  • "Friendly staff and of course, as this is a new building it was very clean inside and out."

Cons:

  • "Kitchen organisation is just horrendous. Many times the orders are wrong, slow or missing several items."
  • "Waited 20 minutes in the drive thru to collect an online order. Then waited another 15 minutes for three pies."
  • "Couldn't find the instructions for ordering to table so had to go back to ground floor to collect, a slow lift is available."

  • "Superior manager very rude and attitude when I made a complaint. Especially when I pointed out how the staff were handling food unhygienically."

Cleanliness and Hygiene

Pros:

  • "The place is obviously new and its all clean and spacious. There is plenty of parking and seating area."
  • "Very clean. Staff very helpful. Ever since it opened the coke zero has tasted funny. Has a fruity taste?"
  • "Friendly staff and of course, as this is a new building it was very clean inside and out. Saw a shift manager walking the perimeter checking for cleanliness too."
  • "Clean and tidy, but then its only been open just over a month, food was ok, service was quick, has seating inside on 2 levels, lift access inside, drive through outside. just your general pop up McDonalds."

Cons:

  • "Had to give 1 star just to leave a review. I came here on Saturday with my family on NEVER AGAIN!!!!! The place is an absolute disgrace bins over flowing, table weren't being wiped down."
  • "Genuinely unclean, normally McDonald's is clean up a standard. But this place was left in a right mess on every table."
  • "Possibly the worst McDonald’s I’ve ever visited no condiments,all the kids tablets missing, the screens were disgusting and hard to work with the amount of slime on them no receipt given and people just parking in disabled spots because they don’t want to walk."
  • "On a whole it was ok but seemed like there is a shortage of staff and its not really clean especially the toilets. Its not what l expect from Mac Donalds."
  • "This is the roughest McDonald's I have been to, there was a police presence going in and i thought about not going in, when I entered all that greeted me was a load of shouting from customer to manager and then the police."
  • "ruined orders numerous times, they never clean the drinks machine and rarely change the syrup i think all in they have cost me about Β£15 worth of missed food and they always come up with excuses, even worse when ordering through uber eats."
  • "Probably the best of the Hemel McDonald's however recently service has got slower and it's nowhere near as clean as it used to be and it's definitely not kept on top of, which is a shame."
  • "It was better than last time but parking needs sorting people parking in the disable spaces with no blue badge McDonald's say there's nothing they can do about there is but they aren't bothered to get involved."
