OK, so it's McDonald's and therefore not life-changing, but I had a decent time here. Because of the (closed) supermarket nearby, there is tons of parking within walking distance, but only a handful of spots are actually right next to the restaurant. I got a McMuffin with sausage, egg, and cheese, and it was OK. The cheese wasn't really melted, but it was warm and my standards for McDonald's are pretty low, so I was satisfied. The service was fine. I can see myself coming back here since I've been known to get a craving for McDonald's from time to time, but this location is nothing extraordinary :) read more

Seems that the service had gotten even slower and the prices higher at this location. They also do not opt into many of the promotions offered in the McDonald's app which is annoying. read more

This is the final time I'm going here, I ask every time for a cheese burger with NO KECHUP I got 2 cheeseburgers today and they both had extra ketchup on it, it sucked, I hated it, this is a big concern becuase I could be allergic, it's horrible and I'm very mad, this is unacceptable by any standards, with cold fries, never coming back read more

McDonald's - Ketchup burger next to no ketchup package - Fast Food Near Me - Plainsboro, New Jersey

The service at this McDonalds has become so much slower since the remodel. Today ordered a simple $5 Value meal. It actually took a full 10 minutes to receive my food. I showed the woman behind the counter the time ordered on my receipt and the actual time but she tried to say differently until she looked at their clock. After voicing my displeasure of length of time, I proceeded out to my work truck and found they shorted the quantity of nuggets in the box, 3 instead of 4. After returning inside to show them, the one guy said something to the others while showing the mishap and then started laughing. When they came back with new nuggets I requested fresh food because I witnessed my food being made earlier but the delay for receiving it was because they ran out of fries. Instead of giving the fries to the customer there waiting, they fulfilled an order for DoorDash with the last fries. Sadly that DD order then sat on a shelf waiting for the driver to arrive. The fresh food request by me because of the long delay was not filled. I actually walked out with no food because of the horrible mismanagement at this location. I have reported this to McDonalds Corporate. I highly doubt anything will come out of it, but this location has lost my and my wife's business. I will make sure to inform my friends of the horrible business practices here as well. This was not the first time I've received very poor service at this location, but it was the last time. read more

This is the slowest McDonalds. Literally waiting 15 minutes for an order to go. Ordered two Big Macs, 2 fries, and 2 drinks. May be a nice location but slow service is not good. read more

The food was the same quality you would get at any location. I enjoy McDonalds and this one also did the trick. Big Mac, fries, coke and some chicken nuggets. Can't go wrong. read more

The food is awful. The meat patties on my Big Mac were dry, cold and were clearly pre made. The fries were over salted, chewy and not crispy. The one star is for the counter person, who was courteous. This place has been open for many years, which is indicative of the low standard that people will accept. read more

This restaurant in a very convenient location. You may find anything from a dollar store to a post office. It's semi clean and lacks spacious parking. In the morning the parking lot can get very hectic/packed because of the set up of all the stores jammed next to each other. The staff lacks welcome kind of attitude. They definitely could improve on that. Thank you for reading this and I hope you find this helpful. read more

McDonald's - Fast Food Near Me - Plainsboro, New Jersey

they just remodeled to take out the soda fountain, to make the chairs less comfortable, and to turn the music up louder. I have been here 25 minutes and they played the same song (shake it off, a fine song) 3 different times. deeply unpleasant. read more

No one really needs a tutorial on McDonald's as most of their menu tastes the same whether you order it in Atlanta or Albania. So, after untold billions served the jury has spoken, you either like it or you don't. However, food preferences do little to explain this peculiar sub-par outlet in Plainsboro, New Jersey which is nothing more than a strip mall franchise with zero parking, a staff that works in reverse and a seating area that looks like a landfill. Time to retire the clown and hire a cleaning crew. Not good. read more

This is the worst McDonald's. Food never taste good. Please avoid. Employees are nice. Stingy with the sauces. Will literally give you one sauce. ALSO PUT MORE SALT ON THE FRIES! read more

Food was up to standard, service was super nice and efficient. Quiet spot and a lot of clean seating inside.

Way more expensive then other McDonald's which are few miles away McChicken - $2.99 here vs $1.49 in nearby McDonalds Large fries - $4.79 here vs $3.99 in neahy McDonalds Spicy chicken Sandwich - $6.29 vs 4.79 in nearby McDonalds And every else too!! That's a big difference. read more

Terrible McDonald's location. Often takes 15-20 minutes or longer to receive basic orders. Always understaffed. On more than one occasion I have discovered the wrong items in my order after getting to my car. The food is also sub-par from basic McDonald's expectations. I'm officially done. STAY AWAY. read more

dont eat the cookies!!!!!!!!! food poisoning left me at a trip to the er and a iv to flush my system. it was a sht situation with every pun intended read more

It's funny that I've been to Plainsboro before but never once checked out this shopping center. There's a small McDonald's in one of the rows of stores here. The issue here is this McDonald's shares the parking area with a lot of other stores and in the daytime, it was actually difficult to find a parking spot here. Standalone McDonald's locations do not have that problem. That aside, I actually found this McDonald's to be tidy and clean. The employees are polite and seem to do their jobs well. The food is about what one would expect from a fast food place. There are numerous signs about drinks being limited to one refill and your stay in the dining area being limited to 30 minutes. Just so people know, this is New Jersey and New Jerseyans are fond of putting up signs that everyone ignores. So unless anyone tells you otherwise, don't worry about those too much. read more

See all

Service is SUPER SLOW. ITS CALLED fast food for a reason, shouldn't take 15 minutes to get a meal. Nothin wrong with the food, but seriously service is super slow read more

Bad experience. They charged my credit card for my order and also the customer behind me. Pointed this out and got big shrug. Asked for manager and he said I had to work this out with credit card company. Basically blew me off. I kept bitching and eventually they gave me cash for the overcharge. What no staff member said, and the manager did not say, was that yet were SORRY for THEIR ERROR. Acted like I was a big inconvenience and were initially unwilling to help at all. Really bad customer service attitude. McDonalds corporate- pls note. read more

Maybe should call this slow-food, not fast. I understand there's a bit of a lunch rush, but obviously understaffed. Tables all have debris on them. Need more staff. McNuggets and fries should my take that long. read more

This McDonald's is very below average for McDonald's. It is always dirty and appears to be understaffed. Every time I've come in here it's been empty yet my food takes way to long to be made. Of the 4 times I've been in there the sweet tea is always either a day old or empty. Last time one of the employe tried pouring the old unsweetened in my cup and started opening sugar packets to power in it. To say it was disgusting is an understatement. The only reason this review gets two stars is the staff is really nice. read more

Oct 25th2019 Went there today after not going for awhile and believe you me I will not be back, they should redo the staff and the food, cold fries, cold burger best thing was the apple pie. Everyone in there not speaking English yelling back and forth, it was awful, I use to love this location but not anymore!!!!! Wise up McDonalds read more

The worst McDonald's I have ever been to. Spent a half hour on line only to watch the only cashier taking care of 1 customer (whose order was still not completed when I left), and arguing with the only cook, refusing to make fries, and ignoring the 10 people still on line. I would rather go without eating than to go back here.I wish I could give negative stars. read more

This is my favorite McDonald's because it is so quiet and calm. It's hidden away in a shopping strip.. There isn't a huge golden arch outside or kids play area. Service is always friendly and quick. I must say that when I'm on a budget and need a quick breakfast to feed two hungry teenagers, this is the place to go. I always take advantage of the coupons that get sent my way, often using the "buy one, get one free" coupon. Their steak, egg and cheese mcmuffin reminds me of a Philly cheese steak breakfast style. After all, you can never go wrong with onions, meat and cheese. They also have the 2 for $4 fish fillet sandwiches which is another good deal. I've also tried their chicken club sandwiches with the fancier buns which is another winner. read more

Alright, so I just can't give a 5 star to McDonalds, because it's not what I think of when I think of 5 star dining. And this is yelp, so why am I even rating a McDonald's, right? But in terms of McDonalds in the area, this one is the best. They get your orders right, they will replace your fries with a smile if they give you cold ones, the space is very clean, and the employees are well-mannered. I love my foodie-foods, but I also really appreciate some McDonalds now and then. And this place satisfies that craving very well. So I'm a fan. The only thing is that they aren't open very late, but that is to be expected for such a small franchise on the edge of a shopping center. read more

I've been running here for quick lunch for 3yrs. Lady packing bags was shaking fries out of container before putting them into the bag. I ask her why. She said we are messing up her inventory. Then! She said I'm helping you out with weight. Then said it's a joke. No more McDonald's for me. Thanks for inspiration. read more

This location is the worst McDonald's I have ever went! The staff was not friendly at all. I did my order on the App, and for some reason, it didn't go through (I figured out later that I just needed two more clicks to complete the order). The staff was so impatient and RUDE and didn't even want to help. He should of spent two more seconds to help to see what went wrong on the app. He made me feel very bad and I felt like I was dumb and didn't know how to do an online order. He ruined my evening. I work in the customer service industry and we would never treat our customers like the way he did to me. I hope everyone read my review and choose another friendly location. read more

Ordered a medium fry from here and it tasted like it had been sitting there for 2 hours, very stale. Told the manager I wanted fresh ones and he "made them". The new ones tasted like he just put the old batch back in the oil to heat up. They were oily, salty and still stale. read more

Everyone is very friendly but they need to staff up I have been there on more than one occasion and they have one cashier working at lunchtime read more

Staying at an expensive hotel around the corner that thinks hamburger and fries is worth $15. Got news for them. Found this little Scottish restaurant called "McDonalds" Seriously, great location, big and clean. read more

Very understaffed. They need to get these poor morning shift workers some help. They had ONE person working at the 8 o'clock hour. Went to grab a quick breakfast on my way to work and turned into 25 minutes of waiting. read more

Went here on my ONE HOUR lunch break, And I spent more than half of it waiting to order and get my food TOGO. Then after I finally got it, the French fries tasted like old fry oil, there was a hair in my food, and it did not taste fresh. Also they only accepted cash. I truly regret going here for lunch. Its called fast food for a reason...well not here. read more

Easily my favorite McDonalds. Me and my friends would always go here for lunch before we graduated high school. The restaurant is very clean and the service is up to standard with any other McDonalds. read more

McDonald's is a fast food restaurant, right? Well not this one. Wanted a QUICK bite to eat but made the mistake of going to this place. Waited nearly 10 minutes for them just to take my order, then waited patiently with all the other customers. After waiting another 10 minutes my order was still not ready. How long can it take to make a dang hamburger??? Since time was of the essence I had to cancel and get a refund. I want to personally thank the staff, management and owner for WASTING MY TIME. There are many other restaurants in the Plainsboro area that value their customer's time so if you're in a hurry this McDonald's is NOT the place to go read more

Compared to the average McDonalds, this one is a 5 star dining establishment: - Cashiers are always friendly and know their stuff. No lost change, no fumbling at the register, no scowls. - I have never received a wrong order - Management is always present and helping out. - Clean dining area These should be basic requirements for any fast food restaurant, but we know they really aren't. The fact that this McDonalds is consistently high with its service quality puts it head and shoulders above others. read more

One of the dirtiest McDonald's I've ever been to! The facility itself needs to be updated. Also a new cleaning crew needs to be hired. I don't eat fast food regularly but when I do, this facility reminds me of why I don't. read more

Used to love this place. Their new staff and managers are very unfriendly, and no longer care at all about the customers. I used to love the hispanic manger that was always in, but now this new guy is a d bag and service is slow. Order was wrong, couldn't find my receipt so they did not believe me or look up the order. I ended up picking through trash the prove them wrong, and then i was accused of eating the food and trying to get more. It was a simple mcchicken that they forgot. Even though this mcdonalds is close to me id rather take the drive to the one on 130 or south brunswick so i can get some decent service. read more

I'm tired of showing up in the early morning and forgetting this place is closed. Anyone else have this problem? Store hours on the website are wrong. They seem to not be available in the entryway and if you phone you don't get a recording letting you know whether this place is open and when. Food is great. People are great. Just ... read more

If I had to eat at one place for the rest of my life, it would hands down be McDonald's. Ronald never did me wrong. He's the grandpa, father, boyfriend, and son I always wanted. This is the heart of America right here. Do I even have to describe the food? Do I even have to tell you guys how much of a percentage of my body fat throughout the years is attributed to McDonald's? I LOVE THAT BREAKFAST IS 24/7 NOW. CAN I TELL YOU HOW MANY TIMES I USED TO SHOW UP AT 11am wanting a bacon egg and cheese bagel with hash brown and then cried within my soul because breakfast was over? This place aims to please. It has always known exactly what my body mind and soul needs at all times before even I know what I want and need. I love you baby. You are the real MVP of this lifetime. The chicken, beef, salads, desserts, are just omg. Everyone knows McDonald's ice cream is the best in the entire world. And that sweet tea wow. I've definitely gotten that at 3am and stayed up all night from the sugar. It makes me feel so good especially after a workout. Wow it always hits the spot. Most women probably think it hits the spot more than men can. Yes love it go there forever love you read more

Out of the surrounding McDonald's in the area this is the worst. There used to be this bilingual manager there that was personable and kept staff running 100%. I can guess he's gone because the service is slow. You go in there at 7 am and it takes them 10 minutes to make one sandwich. Go to South Brunswick McDonald's off Rt1 and you'll have your order within 2 min. read more

the food is what you'd expect a mcdonald's to be. the staff is way nicer than what i expect mcdonald's workers to be, and thus i post to balance out the bad review. read more
