Reviews of McDonald's Newtown

P.

Stopped in for a quick cup of coffee (2 Large flat whites) and a fillet o fish. The order was quick, and the burger was excellent. One of the best fillet o fish I have had, and I have sure eaten my fair share!

H.

Everything I ordered tasted like it was from McDonald's, can't and won't complain. Felt safe as vaccine passes and tracing app used correctly. Great staff.

R.

Friendly staff and even better my order was ready to go shortly after I paid for it. Definitely what a drive through experience should be!

A.

It was take away only when I dropped there at a morning. I think due to covid restrictions. But the consistency in their products’ quality doesn’t change, which is very admirable 👏

T.

Gotta say it MacDeez Petone is one of Wellington best kept secrets now Exposed for anyone to visit great dining set out very inclusive without being exclusive I've never seen a setup like it anywhere else in NZ

S.

Just another Maccas. Although be good if they got your order correct, I ordered coke no ice, but got ice. Then we had an extra burger, Thanks.

J.

Very nice quick and easy very happy with with their food

M.

Five stars because it’s McDonalds - you’re not going there for a fine dining experience but I’ve always got exactly what I’ve paid for. The Big Macs always taste like the weird sweet burger that doesn’t taste like anything else in the world of food. The chocolate milkshakes are like semi-melted frozen ice cream. The fries are crack. None of it is good for you but it’s PERFECT at being not good for you.

C.

Service a bit average we were asked twice for a order about 2 minutes after they asked the first time

M.

Friendly well organized and clean. Well done guys...adrian is amazing!!! Very cool.

S.

The real two reasons to go to the "M" are: 1$ ice cream. Playground. I can't say much about food, but "Mac" made a good job to attract parents with small kids.

F.

Its McDonald's, what else is there to say? Food is sometimes hot sometimes cold... coofee is ok. Staff is good...

t.

Clean, but then again it was mid-morning. Good parking though.

K.

Good McD outlet. Right at the heart of Newtown. Ample parking and also has a small kids play area

S.

Untidy counters. Untrained staff. Self order screens not working. No idea how to work the monopoly app. All in all a disappointing experience.

K.

I love to eating there how does machine screen work I know how to use it

J.

I don't know what to say about the access to the system but it is a good idea to do as,lawful ethos individually for this project but I am in shock and I have to do the right things for good of my country.

S.

Good service. Food was ready in about 2 minutes

C.

Excellent service from the night shift crew last night.

G.

Awesome place and great customer experience. The self check out systems are simply incredible, with that customers can take their own time and select their desired items. The service is super fast !!!

O.

Service was surprisingly fast despite being during busy time

S.

It was the same feed as every other mcds but took ages to be made lol

S.

MC Ds as usual. Good parking space and good staff.

R.

Good food. Typical McD...

O.

Haven't been there in 15 years but saw one of their workers whose always polite and always hardworking, he should be the manager by now but still cleaning up after everyone.

C.

The place was clean and tidy.the staff were very helpful and delivered the food to your table. No complaints whatsoever.

S.

Fillet o fish was a mess in the box. And the coffee sat waiting on the counter for too long

S.

Place looking a bit disorganized With a cluttered counter. 10 minutes to get a mocca.

K.

I noticed major improvements since my last visit.all staff were looking busy.cleaner looking ,good music and upbeat atmosphere .and the food seemed much fresher.is there a new owner?

P.

We (6 of us) came in for dessert, they were quite busy...none of us like using the self service machine to order, so we waited to be served by a human. We waited a long approx 7 minutes to get served, which is a long time waiting haha... the server was sooo busy doing Uber orders, as more people waited behind us. Server was friendly and got the job done. Maybe they should look at a server just to do serve customers waiting, and a server just to do Uber orders... just saying. Impressed with the clean toilets, well done!

D.

Coffee seems to always be wrong but staff are really friendly. I would drive that little bit further towards the basin.. food and drinks seem to be that little bit better.

S.

Typical McDonald's. Small car park and good size dining area. Playground is inside, clean and in good working area. Small washrooms but the combined baby change and disabled toilet is always used by normal customers.

J.

I went through the drive thru twice and both times I had super friendly staff on the intercom. Food was good. But i remember leaving that Drive thru with a smile because of the guys on the speaker.

K.

Please add more vegan and vegetarian friendly options. Start making more burgers for us vegetarians please.

l.

Couldnt figure out what door to go in, looked closed till I drove around again. Maybe signs would have helped. Coffee was nice, and once inside had a lovely staff member help me with the ordering

V.

Absolute legends. Had a problem with my ubereats order getting swapped with someone else's. Uber eats app was predictably garbage and I couldn't get a refund, so the manager drove out to my place and delivered my original order himself.

C.

Pretty fast drive through wen busy and had friendly American young lady on the order pay window... They were all very safe with masks and level two protocol... Some mcdees like the Levin one is shocking bloody rude and the instore self ordering panels are not setup with the number system that your meant to type in and there is no instructions on what to do and the process just holds till u type a random number and when u ask at a counter(only wanted a coffee from the mccafe section and the girl there just mumbled something and walked away and came back and ignored me and then another girl at the counter who had mask around her chin and not wearing properly (no point in wearing one) she told me that it's not a problem and that I should just take it easy and I should have typed any number in... (no where did it say I just type any number in they seemed not to want to have the red number things on the self serve panels... All other mcdees have and use these red number things in level two for ordering. And this girl was just plain rude and the manager looking man was just as rude telling me I should have a nice day with no help at all. It's a mcdees that just seem to have bad staff culture... But this Newton one seems to be OK... Just don't go and stop at the Levin store...

A.

Usually a decent experience. Most recent visit left me a little concerned about the level of training for McCafe staff - the guy kept sloshing and spilling my iced coffee. The end result was alright but took a while and he didn't seem too sure what he was doing.

Z.

My first meal since covid lock down, I ordered a triple cheese burger combo with a thick shake and ice cream Sundae. Oh how I've missed the place. I am diffinitly satisfied. Thanks Mac Donald's. It was a great meal. I've rated a 4 star only because the line took for ever to get through

K.

I love them and idk how they knew i didnt want ice but they knew and it was ready so quick really helped a bad day

R.

They are fasttttttttt.... and good service..

N.

Very good to me thank you

I.

I loved that i didn't have to ask for fresh hot chips but seasoning was a little much

H.

Love this McDonald's. I always buy Happy Meals with nice toys for kids. Food always well-packed on Uber-eats, great store.

d.

an amazing experience best steak and salad i've ever had. would recommend

k.

First time at this Maccas. Everything was clean, shiny and tidy. I ordered hotcakes and they served it to me in decent time compared to the amount of people there at the time and the staff were friendly. They didn't forget anything and my hotcakes were still very hot when I received them. The cutlery was clean (it usually isn't at the Basin Reserve Maccas). I had no problems with the self-order machines. I will definitely be coming back.

M.

Great burger combo chips were awesome and the mangers help with placing my order very professionally done and quick service well done team

D.

My visit here was excellent it ran so well. We went in to eat an we were served straight away. The place was clean an a very nice place it was very inviting an lovely to eat in . The staff were great an helpful but there was an area that needs attention very badly as I understand. Apparently the males toilet was very disgusting an very dirty an they actually did not want to use the toilet. So if this problem could be sorted I'm sure people would rate this McDonald's a 5 out of 5. They would have got a 5 out of 5 Rating from me if that wasn't a problem. We really enjoyed eating in here would visit this MacDonalds any time.

M.

Clean and tidy, fast service

J.

Just another maccas nothing special about it. It was clean and tidy as to be expected the order was fulfilled in a reasonable time. The staff were pleasant to order from

T.

Went through the drive through tonight. Got served by the most delightful friendly welcoming young man. Sadly I didn’t get this name but I let the manager know how great he was. I hope the manager lets him know what a great job he’s doing. Thank you for making my night with your excellent service 😍

T.

Pretty happy with the service here. Even though it's busy the food was made in timely manner. Food was hot and what I expected. The place is generally quite clean and has good facilities. The kids really like going here as a treat after a trip to the zoo.

K.

Clean, bit slow, food was well presented and good amount of seating,

N.

I was greeted over the drive through intercom by a very freindly guy who made our day by just being inviting! Excellent customer service and a all round top guy! Mcdonalds have a legend on thier team at Newtown Wellington. Thanks for your service John you made our day bro!

G.

Can't resist getting my Macca's fix each time I fill up on Petrol. Love the vegetarian options. My only suggestion would be to offer some more vegetarian or plant based options, but otherwise, it's Macca's you know what your getting, pretty much all over the world these days. Dropped my card in the drive through but friendly staff were very patient.

S.

It's Maccas... What kind of review do you need? Hahaha it's a massive corporate fast food franchise.. my review is redundant... But yo hope Maccas gives me free fries 🤪

P.

Nice and spacious. Easy to locate.

K.

Great staff and service.

H.

Fast service, although I went just after 5 so that could explain that, but burger was nice, my frozen coke was melted a bit, 4 stars

D.

50 nuggets. Sichuan sauce. What else is there to say. Cooked perfectly crispy. Good to see the return of the sauce too. Highly recommend any fellow fatty or anyone silly enough to share a pack of nuggets

M.

In the evening, staff are NOT regularly checking n clearing tables. Its really disgusting in the evenings, with food dropped on tables, rubbish n trays n spilt drinks, its takes staff a while yo notice it and/or to clean it.

B.

Quick service but burger cold and same with chips

X.

Crowded and busy. There are about 20 parking slots and a drive through lane. I have ordered a cup of iced coffee which tasted good.

Z.

R.

Near at my place and right in the center of Riddiford small community.

G.

Not too badly,the staffs were trying their best to serve us and the same time to keep happy and safe from the covid -19.

V.

Absolute legends. Had a problem with my ubereats order getting swapped with someone else's. Uber eats app was predictably garbage and I couldn't get a refund, so the manager drove out to my place and delivered my original order himself.

J.

Great staff. Tables need cleaning more regularly, but staff on to it. Surprisingly good coffee.

G.

Not too badly,the staffs were trying their best to serve us and the same time to keep happy and safe from the covid -19.

A.

Fast and friendly service, staff communicate if there is a delay in your order. This one is better than Basin Reserve its worth traveling to Newtown to get your moneys worth

L.

I've visited my fair share of McDonald's in my day. This is one of the better ones, which is saying a lot since McDonald's is so brilliantly consistent restaurant. Big ups to Ronald and the team

E.

5 stars

M.

Service was quick & given with a smile. Party of 4 were quickly ejected from the premises when their behaviour & swearing became unacceptable.

D.

Bright and modern, staff happy and positive on an extremely busy morning feeding kids and parents after Saturday sport. Order filled quickly despite huge numbers of customers.

H.

Everyone probably knows Maccas because its definitely the best fastfood shop in NZ! It has the best chips and burgers which obviously most fastfood places have but they have tones of types and they are 10/10 quality food, especially the all time favorite, the cheese burger! I definitely recommend coming to this epic fastfood store!

m.

Really smooth service and food was hot and not greasy.

K.

Staff are friendly and helpful, service is overall very good, generally quite clean and very quick wait times. Coffee is also very good quality for a fast food chain.

S.

It's a great car park. 👍 Wouldn't go inside though, too many crazy Newtown locals about and the toilet will probably be clogged with toilet paper by some scoundrel. Just use the drive thru.

W.

As always OK for a quick snack, especially breakfast on the run. It does seem the cheap coffee s a thing of the past now - $4:60 even for a reasonable coffee I think is a bit much for McDs

R.

Friendly staff, never had an order messed up which is surprising!

D.

Mc donalds Newtown. Same as any Maccas meals are made to order with an average 2 -5 min wait. At time of dining walls were quite dirty from greasy hands etc... best to take away if possible.

B.

Nice and clean, plenty of ordering screens. Table service is great when you have litre monsters with you. Helpful staff

M.

The young girl who serviced me was very kind and gave great service. I had a bacon and egg Mcmuffin and my free gold card coffee. Good value.

J.

Been coming here for years that's how I got fat. McDonalds Newtown is an equals opportunity employer. Friendly staff and the Dutch franchise owners are terrific, friendly with customers and always asking for comments improvement.

M.

They didn't bask about burger options of a shared meal so I had to argue with customer service

G.

I popped in to have some lunch before heading off to the Zoo down the road.

A.

Drive thru service was slow. The staff member wasn't very friendly

T.

Excellent place to eat Would be nice if coffee cups can be bigger Not enough liquid coffee in my latte cup except milk bubbles (heaps) Want to enjoy my coffee even the coke drinks More ice in the cup than coke Overall happy place to eat out Love the chocolate ice cream yum yum.yum

K.

Never have to wait long even if it's busy

D.

Good fast food

C.

They had great service they were attentive and smiles I love their smiles my grandchildren were happy with them too.

T.

Nice breakfast double quarter pounder and coffee. Yum.

N.

Good to go enough space for big group

T.

I suppose it's the same with every other Macdonald around wellington cause they open through out early hours of the morning. I like it.

S.

Clean place ,plenty room inside,drive through follow hygiene standards.Food is good.

J.

Clean , table or counter service or drive thru. Good service

H.

Seems to always take aaaaages these days like 20 minutes in drive thru sometimes. The staff are always super nice though

P.

Service yesterday was excellent, young lady that served us was so patient and genuinely friendly helpful and accommodating, all the while smiling.

R.

Clean, kind of unfriendly staff member this morning but they may have been worried about me not wearing a mask

L.

Great service from a young man named Isiah. Awesome customer service.

N.

Its McDonald's. You know exactly what you are getting. Quick couple of cheese burgers after a late shift.

S.

Unfortunately had to wait too long and chips were served cold but staff good to immediate replace them with hot ones

J.

Pretty good just had to wait awhile in drive thru but looks like everyone else had to also

F.

Easy parking, tidy restaurant and no problems with the order of ordering. Looked after really well and our order bought out to us

P.

Standard McDonald's franchise, what you would expect.

l.

Food was good although same as all other McDonalds but service very attentive

N.

Good service but occasional error.

M.

This is an average Maccas with above average hours 24 hours. Same quality as other restaurants.

G.

To anyone that is expecting wifi and power points (as with all the other McDonald's I've been to in NZ), you'll be disappointed to know that's not option here.

j.

Great place to ear fast food. Had a Mc Chicken burger. Timely customer service.

G.

Wasn't as good as most MacDonalds, food had cold patches and the toilets need some maintenance. Play area could do with a wash down as well.

R.

Near at my place and right in the center of Riddiford small community.

A.

Great service, team and food here

T.

Great for breakfast! Hadn't been to Newtown McDonald's for such a long time but having breakfast there was a good time 😋

Second time here and things haven't changed much in the four years... The McCafe staff member was good.
