I took my mom who is not vegan and has always enjoyed McDonald’s. She thought it was really fun. I enjoyed their French fries as they reminded me of McDonald’s fries. The not chicken nuggets were delicious. Their burgers reminded me of McDonald’s but were more substantial and tasted better. We also tried the Mr.FluffHead which was delicious and creamy.

I've wanted to try this place for a couple years & finally had the chance to. Did not disappoint! Not exactly like McDonalds but pretty close.
It really hit the spot.
There was One Vegan & two non-Vegans & we all really liked it.
We tried a Cheeseburger Meal, a Mr. Royale w/Cheese, a Mr.
Sunday (Chik'n Sammie), a Sausage Breakfast Sammie w/Tots & some Chik'n Nugs. It was all good but I especially liked the Chik'n Sammie. It was one of the better Vegan Chik'n Sandwiches i've had.
They were out of several items including The Mr. Chuck (similar to Big Mac) which I REALLY wanted to try😒

Pros: it does taste just like the McDonald's you remember! Cons: it's absolutely just as unhealthy as the McDonald's you remember. It hits all the right notes but at a premium - you pay restaurant prices for fast-food quality food. The quality is also a bit hit or miss - the 'chicken' nuggets are sometimes dry and stale, the fries are sometimes limp and soggy. But every now and then, this is the McDonald'[censored] you need.

O lanche lembra muito o do mac. Muito saboroso

Much like everyone else says, it does taste much like McDonald’s but in someway, healthier even though you’re having burgers and fries. Maybe it’s the no animal(s) in the meal. But yeah, it’s great for a burger meal or if you crave McDonald’s. Even if I wasn’t a vegan I’d choose Mr. Charlie’s over McDonald’s.

This spot hits the old school McD’s nostalgia experience. No vintage super size options here, however an all around fun and unique take on fast food but most importantly cruelty free.
I had to deduct some points as the fries were not so good, tasted like they were sitting under a heat lamp for a while. Considering they were busy that’s not acceptable.
The burger, nuggets were simple and tasty and hit the notes of ol’ McD’s. Even the buns for the burger were impressively spot on. 🍔

They advertise closing at 10pm, however they wouldn’t take my order at 9:55. Make that make sense. The grocery store closes at 10, however if I walk in at 9:55, I am allowed to shop. Open for business until a certain time is open for business until said time.

I think they pretty much nail what they’re trying to do. But how do they not have their own version of flurries yet? It would be amazing and, unlike McDonalds, theirs could actually work!

This place took me back to my childhood. It's expensive and worth every penny. By far my favorite restaurant I've ever been to.

Obsessed with the unhappy meals! I love this place and take all my friends who love non-vegan gas food to get a taste for the good stuff :)
Little pricey for a parody though
Kinda expensive for what you get. The Mr. Sunday chix sandwich was good. At this location they don't have any bathrooms for paying customers so that kinda sucked.

Honestly tasted just like McDonalds. Nothing special, just impossible patties and chicken patties. Really did not care for the nuggets. The texture and flavor were awful. The white sauce was too sweet. Pretty expensive for what it is, but I suppose it’s for the gimmick. I thought Hart House was better.

Really good burgers, especially with the $1 deal on mondays
