The difference in the food is night and day. One you will get cold food sloppily thrown together. The other you will get hot food, assembled with care. The bread will be fresh, the burger hot and the cheese melted.
The odd thing is that both have great coffee.
The best McDonald’s I have ever been to ( and I visited a lot ) was in Greenville, South Carolina.
Everything was fresh, employees were so friendly and the place was spotless. Even the bathroom was perfectly clean.
However, ordering an iced coffee was always a humorous event. I think I was one of the only people who ever ordered one as sometimes it seemed the staff had trouble operating the machine. We’d always laugh about it.
It was a real pleasure going there.
