McDonald’s

#56−2016:
Like most Mickey D. this location is often hit and miss… specially when it comes to fries.
Historical in that it was one of the first Mc’s to be open in Milan (one of the VERY few still open for business), it has one GREAT secret weapon, its location!
The front of the store offers a clear view of the Duomo square, and cathedral), whereas the back entrance heads on out to the less renoun Piazza Mercanti (a hidden gem worth visiting).
But, enough jibber jabber… on to the food… your typical fast food, however, beware of French fries lingering there too long. … unlike the US, here they won’t be tossed out, they’re gonna be sold (at regular price).
Another fancy (but not so pleasurable) fact: you pay for sauces so… don’t splurge and DON’T bring unused packages back…
I like their sundaes and was crushed when they stopped serving apple pies…
Periodically they offer specials but don’t even bother… staff barely knows how to cook the normal menus!

Thank god for the location of this Mickey –D’s, just across from the Duomo and their free toilets — even if those are hidden towards the back and just a wee bit difficult to find.
I didn’t purchase any food, but did see a self– service kiosk, which looked interesting and which I haven’t see anywhere else at a McDonalds. Also noticed that it had tons of spaces to sit. I guess if you are a fan, you will come here regardless — for me, am just grateful that the restrooms were free to use and no need to purchase something just to get the bathroom key code.

Yes it’s McDonalds not a gourmet restaurant so the food is what it is, in Milan, Detroit, Sydney or Shanghai… but the plus here is the view. Right in Piazza Duomo, Milan’s most famous square, if you’re lucky enough to get one of the tables facing the square, you’ll have the most amazing view in town… while having your 7 euro McMenu :)
So, if you must eat at McDonalds while in Italy, this is the one you want to go to.
The Easy Order is great, I wish they had it in all other McDs in town, it really saves lots of queueing time (if you know Italian queues you know what I mean…), you just order at the ⁶⁄₇ screens available, using your credit card and then pick up your order in the dedicated line.
While the downstairs area is a bit dark for my taste, the upper level is fine, and again, with that view! The restaurant is clean enough, chaotic during peak times (lunch especially). Staff is fast enough, sometimes careless when preparing the burgers, I mean I know it’s a fast food restaurant but several times I’ve had to re-​arrange my burger because everything falls out… but once again… that view! That’s why I keep coming back, also because it is one of the affordable options for lunch break in the city center.

One of the best McDonald franchise and location olin the world. Very modern and also displays local artworks from Italian Artist. Garbage disposal is automated– auto sensing when you’re ready to dispose your garbage. Make sure you sit on the second floor and you will be rewarded with the Doumu view– one of the stunning and largest chuch in the world. It is popular among local and tourist alike. Very crowded specially lunch time for it is both McCafe and McDonald’s at the dame time. Free wifi and also has a small indoor playground for the kids.

From the food, its a typical MD, as usual. Freshly prepared meals. So far so good. just with some italian modifications. Which are nice and definitely more healthy if you compare it to the american versions, however.
The restaurant is mostly crowded, a lot of tourists go there but it is well organized and there are enough staff members who care for things and that everything works well.
What is absolutely great is the location. Upstairs you can sit at one of the half-​round windows and have a look at the Piazza del Duomo. Just sitting there with a coffee on a rainy day, and watching the people and things going on outside lets you forget that you actually are sitting in a Fast Food restaurant…
I am no MD fan but this is definitely an exception!

He tenido la oportunidad de venir varias veces a este fast-​food. Es dificil decir algo nuevo sobre el fast-​food mas famoso del mundo, precios comodos como siempre y ambiente bueno!
