This trip to McDonald's, was my husband and I, giving the Elwood location another chance after an extremely long period of time, where we we're refused to ever return to The Elwood McDonald's after the absolutely disgusting conditions of the interior of the restaurant! This was our previous and we thought our last food run to the Elwood McDonald's. However, I was cravin' a Big Mac and my husband was willing to tryout the location again too. So we crossed our fingers that the Management of McDonald's Elwood had started to make their employees keep the restaurant and kitchen absolutely clean! Free of food born illness and germ free. The problem is that when I was working, it was always in a restaurant setting from server to management eventually, but there were efforts to learn all the positions that contribute to running a successful restaurant and I am still part of a generation that had Parents who instilled a work ethic in me. So when I walk into a restaurant, I don't want to see the evidence of a massive, dried spill of something liquid at the front of the inside where you order and wait for your food, and instead of there apparently not being a Great, Go-Getter employee working possibly being in all off Indiana, but a employee who would have cleaned up the Massive, Dried up Spill when it happened. Also, I don't think anyone has ever wiped off the POS Systems on the counter where customers receive their food. Those Scream Health Code Violation right when you walk in the location! Anyway, this last time at least the Fries were molten hot and fresh, which made them the tastiest, my Big Mac was warm food too and satisfied my craving! The only problem with the food was, the Limited Time Golden Deluxe Chicken Sandwich, we fell for the photograph advertisement pictures that made the sandwich look amazing! It was actually incredibly dry, and it was just a chicken sandwich with McDonald's secret sauce on it. So nothing to right home about on the Chicken Sandwich. Oh, and at least the floor was clean, however the POS Systems had I swear an ever growing layer of muck on the screens. So it depends on how much shitty service in restaurants, retail, and other businesses, a person is willing to tolerate because thats just apparently how it is.

They’re never actually open at 5am . 3rd time I’ve stopped by here since 9-19-25 inbetween 5am-5:30am
Everytime I am told “we aren’t serving until after 6 sorry” inconvenient considering I have to clock in at 6 . Horrible morning crew

This is the worst McDonalds I’ve been to. First, they charged me for 3 sweet teas, and I was only given one. Secondly, my food was cold, and dry. Thirdly, this place was dirt, dirt everywhere, straw wrappers, napkins, and more all over the floor. Never coming here again.

Waited for half an hour for an interview that was scheduled at 2pm. Had to constantly remind the staff that I had an interview, and when I reminded them one final time, they laughed so I saw my way out of there. The whole time I was waiting I could hear the staff goofing off and saw them standing around waiting for orders, and didn’t speak to any managers for an interview at all. Worst experience I’ve had as an applicant. Do not work here.

There was a long line, which isn't McDonald's fault but they have a dual line. The one I ended up in, apparently they chose to ignore. 4 cars from the other lane were helped before getting to mine. The person who took our order was pleasant but that doesn't make up for the frustration I had from waiting in one single line to bring divided in to 2 and then bring ignored. I hadn't been to McDonald's in probably a year or better and it will be that long or longer before I consider going back. This review is in regards to the McDonald's in Elwood, Indiana. I'll just keep going across the road to Wendy's if we want that type of food.

It's like a box of chocolates. You never know what you are going to get. At least most of them are friendly.
Depends what day and time you go there for good or subpar service, if I'm being honest I'm not a huge fan of the food myself but ik quite a bit of the population loves it.

Talk about attitude. There is no such thing as good customer service anymore.
