McDonald's in Washington

“•Glad to have found them open post-snowstorm in DC!
•Very busy despite the weekday and off-peak hours.
•Staff are kind and quick to serve.
•Clean dining area with several tables and chairs.
•Got their spicy chicken sandwich, and hot honey snack wrap with fries. Food was good although the fries were a bit soggy already. Hot honey wrap is a must-try!“

“I mean it's a McDonald's so just a convenient place to get something fairly affordable despite prices slowly creeping up at all McDonald's locations. The place was surprisingly clean for a McDonald's in the DC Metro area, which usually gets lots of foot traffic and can get wildly busy -- and thus messy -- so got to give them props on that.

The food wasokay -- nothing really notable (which is kinda what you expect with many fast food joints).

It was a little slow despite not having a lot of people there. I think they might have been understaffed at the time or maybe there's something else going on, but that's the only thing that fell below the normal McDonald's par.“

“Meets the standards of an O.K. McDonald's franchise, food-wise. The patrons can be a bit rambunctious, especially if you're not from the area. I'd recommend the drive-through. However, if you go a any actual mealtime, expect a longer wait than reasonable. This location's ice cream machine works more frequently than average by a significant margin.“

“Thank you McDonald's for answering my birthday wishes! They sent me a gift for my favorite breakfast sandwich, Sausage McGriddle!!! I truly appreciate bright and early ease to my day. Did I mention the employees are happy to see you! 😄 10/10

No pictures..I ate it all lol“

“What I LOVE most about this McDonald's is not only is everyone cool and patient with the population the manager LIZ when I come in am/noon is absolutely exceptional, competent and understands how to run a show...this is coming from dealing with subordinates and management myself of years.... So if you got a big order that needs to be done right??? At worst go to liz“

“I love McDonald's I went there after dropping off two of my grandkids to school I just hate the fact that they don't have beef or turkey sausage when I get there big breakfast so to whomever read this please ask the CEO to bring in beef sausages for people who love to eat their big breakfast please everyone don't eat pork thanks“

“Ok sent in the city and region in this case there is no payment and delivery to the city and back on the card and on which one you definitely will not have different options to choose from several days a week on vacation for a week on Monday in the area in in for many centuries ago

Kid-friendliness: Very good option

Wheelchair accessibility: Please send this illustration throughout the year“

“This McDonald’s is always clean, food always good and fresh, very good customer service I been coming here a lot for 4 months straight, this establishment is one of the best, I give this McDonald’s 100 stars, thank you guys for always keeping this place clean“

“The older short Hispanic woman working the front counter and the back as well on 4/19/26 12:09 deserves a raise. Even though she was working the register she was also prepping peoples orders in the back simultaneously on a busy Sunday and calling peoples orders by their name, not just their number. Had a great attitude despite the business. Love people like her and hope her upper management acknowledges her for it. Wish I got her name to post here but didn’t want to interrupt her in the zone. Well done to her.“

“At the time of day that I was at Mickey D's there was kids everywhere and they were extremely loud, needless to say that I got up and left. Overall the store was clean. The floors were decent. Plenty of tables available and they also were clean.“

“I love this one because of the places nearby and the inside decor! It's pretty and it's more fancy than most McDonald's, but, when they forgot my sauce to my food they charged me an extra 35 cents for sweet and sour sauce which I find incredibly irritating because most McDonald's don't do this.“

“Not used to not having a drive through but we went in the middle of lunch. Used the kiosk with my app to place order 10 mins later our food came to our table. Associate had the ketchup in his apron so we didn't have to wait. Food was hot and fresh. Inside was clean and so were the restrooms.“

“Very welcoming atmosphere, decent price for large sweat tea, VERY CLEAN STORE, and a warm atmosphere which is what America was supposed to be of, citizens coming to sit and eat amongst each other even if but for a moment to recognize who the citizens of America or visitors are.“

“The ladies and gentlemen that cleans the lobby do a great job sometimes they can be chaddy patties behind the register and forget stuff like taking the ketchup add mustard off the sandwich and add Mac sauce imagine going home and it been nothing or just be that ketchup and mustard you didn't want“

“I come frequently and there is always an issue with the homeless at this location. McDonald’s on 13th St and McDonald’s on 17th St are much nicer. There is nothing wrong with the food or the service. You must expect panhandling every time you come. In this location, the neighbors experiencing homelessness (they are my neighbors after all) often have mental health problems. Please be kind, but understand that this is an issue at this particular McDonald's.“

“I work in the area and come here everyday for lunch the staff that sees me is always nice I have NEVER had an incorrect order. The store is mostly clean people eat in here all the time, I haven’t used the bathroom so I can’t speak on that. People use one bad experience and try to define the whole store.“

“McDonald’s Union Station Washington, DC

Yes, it’s possible to find a meal under $10 at Union Station in Washington, D.C.

I was at the redeveloping station determined to be out of the U.S. for the week of July 4, 2026, so that I could avoid the semi quincentennial spectacle. Amtrak Vacations developed an itinerary that would take me from Union Station to Chicago, then to Seattle, then to Vancouver, Jasper, and Banff.

Visitors will be seeing many changes in the station, affecting where and how passengers wait for their train. The changes include a dedicated waiting area for Amtrak ticket holders and a Metropolitan Lounge for sleeper-car passengers. The station features Wolfgang Puck on the second floor, Chopt and Chipotle among others in the food court below the main floor, and a reliable McDonald’s near the departure gates.

For my visit, I ordered a double cheeseburger ($3.39) and small fries ($2.59). The service was quick and accurate, the food reliably hot and fresh – less than 8 minutes from placing the order to picking it up, with panhandler who thoughtfully was not in your face. There’s a small set of tables on site within sight of G gate.

All things considered, this was way more sensible than Wolfgang Puck on the second floor.“

“Fries were hot as they could ever be! HOT!!!
The burger patties were moist! It was hot!!
Soda calibrated!
Shake excellent!
I was a bit confused about the service table number, but Stacy W. Was pro-active and saw I needed help! She brought my Oder to the table!!!
The only negative wasn’t McDonald’s. A screaming Karen, letting by the whole world know she’s not happy!!!! I understand customer dissatisfaction, but responsible for your emotions Karen! I had to hear your screaming!!!
Every time I come in person, the experience is exemplary!“

“I got a bacon egg & cheese biscuit & after i went home to enjoy it there was mold on my breakfast sandwich..
Also on website it says they open at 5am , went around 5:30 they said they open at 6am, waited til then just for somebody to be there the entire time just looking at me not staying if they were opening or not taking anymore customers“

“I had an excellent experience here and honestly don’t understand how anyone could leave a bad review. From the moment I walked in, I was greeted warmly and treated with real respect. The staff took their time explaining everything clearly and never made me feel rushed or pressured, which I really appreciated. You can tell they actually care about their customers and the quality of their work.

The place itself was clean, organized, and very welcoming. Everything felt professional, from the way the staff handled questions to how smoothly the whole process went. I came in expecting a normal experience, but I left genuinely impressed. The service was efficient without feeling rushed, and every detail was handled carefully.

What stood out the most was the honesty. I was given clear options, realistic timelines, and straightforward answers. No upselling, no hidden surprises—just solid, reliable service. That’s rare these days, and it’s the reason I’ll definitely be coming back.

If you’re on the fence because of mixed reviews, don’t be. My experience was nothing but positive, and I’d confidently recommend this place to friends and family. It’s refreshing to find a business that still values customer satisfaction and takes pride in what they do. Five stars without hesitation.“

“The service here is always great. Most of the staff are friendly and serve the customers with pride. Food is always fresh and you can get through the drive through in a flash. The only downside is the large amount of drug induced people that congregate in front of the store. They beg for change and try to sell you stolen goods.

Parking: The massive amount of people hanging in the parking lot occupy the parking spots.“

“L

I recently visited the McDonald's on 14th Street and wanted to highlight my experience with Tracey. Despite the busy atmosphere, Tracey is always so nice and welcoming. Every time I see her, she has a big smile on her face, which truly brightens my day. Her positive attitude and friendly service make each visit enjoyable. Thank you, Tracey, for making a difference with your kindness and excellent customer service!“

“It's the Howard McDonalds, enough said.

Not enough? Okay.
Food is what you'd expect from Maccas. Service is fine. Bathrooms roped off sometimes. Sometimes it's rowdy. Sometimes the ice cream machine is down. But moe the amount of times this place saved my ass? An asset to the community. May they continue to prosper for years to come. I love you Howard Maccas.“

“This is one of the busiest McDonald's locations I've ever been to, and honestly, that's probably the best way to describe it: busy, busy, busy.

No matter what time I stop by, 9AM 3PM, 11PM, 3AM, there always seems to be a steady flow of customers in the drive-thru and inside the restaurant. Despite that, the staff does an impressive job keeping things moving. Orders come out quickly, the food is consistently fresh and hot, and they almost always have what I'm looking for in stock.

What stands out most is how hard the team works. Given the amount of traffic this location gets, it's clear that the employees are constantly moving and doing their best to keep up with demand. I've always been impressed by how efficient they are, especially during peak hours.

The dining area can sometimes be a little messy, but that's more a reflection of how busy the restaurant is than a lack of effort from the staff. It often feels like they clean something and a new wave of customers comes right in behind them. Considering how much traffic this location handles, they're doing a great job.

I'm also excited to see the upcoming remodel. This location is already a convenient and reliable stop, and the renovations will make it even better.

Overall, this is a dependable McDonald's with hardworking employees, fast service, and consistently good food. I'll definitely keep coming back.“
