McDonald's at Magnolia Plaza
 
It's open! Anyone been there? How is the food and service?

Ate there yesterday. Service was friendly and fast. They shorted us one french fry. Circled back through the drive thru. Was handed a bag with more than an order of fries and an apology. Food was typical of McDonalds. It was fresh and hot.

Hadn’t been to a McDonalds in about 4 years. Was a little surprised at the price. A Big Mac meal and a 1/4 Pounder meal came to right at $18.

They also placed a flyer in each bag stating they were hiring at $13-$18 per hour with up to 2,500 of tuition assistance.

I think I’ll go to Five Guys for my fast food burger fix at those prices.

I went Sunday morning on the way to Lowlands. Picked up a couple of breakfast burritos and I was on my way. Typical McDonalds food fast and hot. This was at about 6:50am so I wasn't expecting a line.

Since I drive by it most days, it's had lines since it opened on Friday. We'll see how it does after the newness wears off.

I'm betting you haven't been to Five Guys recently if you think 2 people can get similar quantities of food and drink for $18.00

Exactly. Some people just have to jump in without thinking. Good grief.

A cheeseburger, fries and drink at Five Guys is $18.70.

Apparently you haven’t been tracking the news on inflation. Work at McDonalds for $18 and hour and tuition assistance; that’s called a HUGE increase in labor costs since the 70s.

He said a meal (burger fries and a drink). He got two meals at McD’s for $18. A single meal deal at 5 Guys is just shy of $19

I know what you meant about being shorted one fry, but I've received skimpy amounts and generous amounts on the past for the same sized order. So I wonder what the company formula is.

Wow. Had no idea. It’s been awhile since we’ve eaten there too. We don’t eat fast food often but my wife just had a knee replacement and was getting cabin fever. So I took her for a little ride. lol
