“4/5 Stars – Reliable McDonald’s stop, but not quite perfect 🍔
Stopped by the McDonald’s on Highway 17 in Myrtle Beach last night after a long beach day and it did the job. The drive-thru was quick (under 5 minutes even at dinner rush), and my order came out hot and mostly accurate—Big Mac, large fries, and a McFlurry hit the spot exactly like I remembered from a thousand other visits.
The fries were crispy and salty, the burger was juicy with that classic special sauce, and the McFlurry was thick and chocolatey. Everything tasted fresh and on-point, which is exactly what you want from McDonald’s. The staff was friendly too—one kid even double-checked my order at the window with a smile. Place was clean inside, AC was blasting (huge plus after being out in the heat), and the self-serve drink machine worked great.
Only reason it’s not a full 5 stars: the fries cooled off a little faster than usual on the drive back to the hotel, and my McFlurry had a couple of those weird ice chunks that didn’t mix in all the way. Minor stuff, but noticeable when you’re paying $12+ for a combo these days.
Overall, solid fast-food classic that delivered exactly what I expected. Great for a quick, satisfying meal when you don’t feel like cooking or hunting down something fancy. I’ll definitely hit this location again on my next trip.
Would recommend if you’re craving the golden arches—consistent and convenient, just don’t expect gourmet magic.

“Not that I’m a Big fan of McDonald’s, as I only eat at McDonald’s perhaps once every two months. However, this McDonald’s is a welcome change. The Manager at this establishment was Amazing and Very welcoming. He had a great personality with customer service that is missing these days. The food was hot and fresh. We visit the area once a month on average, and any time I get a craving for McDonald’s, I’ll only order from this location. Great Experience.. Thanks“
“I always appreciate the excellent customer service I receive at this place. I typically use the drive-thru, and I’m fortunate to see Nora there in the mornings. She consistently goes above and beyond to ensure that my experience is positive. Her friendly demeanor and efficiency truly make my day better. She's definitely one of the best employees I’ve encountered!. Everything went smooth definitely will be back. Food and meat always fresh and well prepared.“
“Ordering just 4 meals with drinks, one would think that ordering ahead of time on the app would constitute a more efficient and accurate process. With this place, one would be highly mistaken. Arrived 30 minutes after placing the app order. Still had to pull forward and wait 20 minutes for apple pies. Then the fun began. The drive thru attendant finally arrived with just the apple pies, no meals. Of course now she's upset demanded my receipt to verify, because surely I was told to pull forward for 20 minutes just to wait for two apple pies I ordered 30 minutes ago 🤦🏿♂️ Almost 15 vehicles have passed us by now, and they placed their orders at the restaurant. She finally returned again, this time with just one medium fries missing. No prob, I was informed after inquiring that the fries were hidden under the Monopoly game instructions under the bag with the pies. Surely, I should've considered that location first They did compensate with an extra fry 😃 Best 57 minutes of my vacation😒 And still only received 1 of the 3 honey mustard packets ordered. The drinks were watered down, and the fries, except the bonus fry, were cold and useless of course. The pies that started the drama weren't even warm 😄 So, yeah, there's that 🤷🏿♂️
(Edit: management made every effort to make up for this issue. Hope restored 😃)“
“Wow it was touch and go there for a minute but what a turnaround! I was helped by kyrone, I thought the spicy chicken was a little dark but they assured me that was the way it was supposed to look. Turns out it was sooooo delicious. I got that McCrispy deluxe and wow. Mind blown. Thank you guys!!!!“
“Went here on Tuesday March 17th 2026 with my mom for some much needed dinner. It was saint Patricks day, and honestly felt like a shamrock shake, and we needed dinner too. Person who took our order was pleasant. We ordered 2 medium shamrock shakes, 2 chicken sandwiches, mccrispy original meal with fries and shamrock shake, and 2 4 piece chicken tenders. We took the order to go and ate it at home. price was about 41.00. we paid via a credit card. While it was busy, we recieved our order pretty quickly. We then went home and ate our food. I enjoyed my shamrock shake, and mccrispy original sandwich- and also ate a mcchicken. not the guys fault, but maybe I wanted the mcchicken sandwich instead. oh well. Fries were good. my dad, and even me, thought the chicken tenders were small and very dry. I guess there is a reason why we don't order fast food that much. Anyways, would definitely be back for the shakes!“
“Went through the drive through on a Friday night, a half hour before close with a massive order and the lovely people at this location delivered! Our food came out quickly and accurately- we were able to feed our “small army” and prevent any uprisings.“
“This is a good McDonalds. Both the sitting area and the bathroom was clean. Sometimes when I visit fast food places they have like a slippery grime on the floor, however, This McDonald’s Wasn’t Greasy at all. I had no problem eating here. All the food tasted as it’s supposed to taste and looked like it’s supposed to look. The one thing you can say about McDonalds is that they have a consistent taste across their many locations. The employees were also very friendly and polite. It looked like everyone was working hard to meet the customers demands. If you want to go to a McDonalds, this is a good one to visit.“
“Great drive thru close to the beach and on Rt. 17 close to a lot of businesses. I stop here often for lunch or drink. I use the app and so I often get free fries with purchase of a drink or free items with the points I get earn. Dependable food quality and variety. I miss their breakfast sweets. The McCafe coffee products are comparable to Starbucks and much cheaper. No calorie friendly place.“
“The best service I'd ever had at a fast food place. All the employees were super nice, checked to see if we needed anything. Had smiles on their faces. Very pleasant. The place was very clean. All restaurants need to take lessons from this McDonald's! Will return when I'm back for vacation again!“
