McDonalds Paraparaumu

We visited on 12th Dec at approximately 5pm.nWe were starving so dived in for a quick meal.n5 stars for food - it’s as 5 stars as a McDonald’s can be.nService was excellent! It was absolutely pumping through the drive through and walk in.nWe were so impressed with how the staff all worked together like a machine. The guy in charge was amazing and so cool and calm.nToilets were clean.

Went through the drive thru 9pm last night, ordered a mcchicken combo and cheeseburger. Waited something like 15 minutes at the window for our order. Had a view from the pick up window of a staff member wiping under their nose with their hand and then picking a few drinks up by the rim before putting the lids on... Parked up to use the ladies bathroom, it was out of toilet paper and one cubicle was a disgusting mess, the sink was also filthy. Both burgers looked and tasted reheated rather than fresh. No pickle in my cheeseburger. Chips were cold. To top it off my husband has been unwell with vomiting and diarrhoea since 1am, which we are now wondering if that was the mcchicken…

Had an influx of going here in the morning for coffee once every day or two random times sometimes 6:45am sometimes 10am and wait time has been good and coffee has been really good every time.nnDinner time ranging from 7-10pm iv been to a few times in the last few weeks have been really good and one of the more consistent mc Donald's in the welly region iv been too.nnGood job, Idk if the employees are reading this but you guys actually do a very good job at this place balancing fast service while also trying to get fresh food to customers.nnOnly thing I CANNOT stand is the wait area when they park you for food as its so cramped I bet multiple cars get side tapped by others multiple times a week but this is no way in any fault to the maccas staff working there as this is just bad site design from maccas corporate up in greenlane AKL.

I got harassed by a teenager, who was after my points, so he could get free food. I refused, but he kept monitoring other customers for their points like a shark. I warned a staff member, but he did not care that teenagers were harassing visitors.

I found one of the most helpful staff ever at this McDs. The staff member went out of their way to find me all 6 of the current collectible tins, and helped my friend get different colored changing color cups to what she already had.nAnd they have a 'trailer park' for vehicles towing & trucks. We need more of these around!!nThis McDs hosted my eldest son's 4th birthday over 30yrs ago. Things have changed, but they're still a good place to stop when you need to grab fast food.
