McDonalds

For some reason, they decided to shut it down.
Why???

great macdonalds

just a regular mcdonalds, now with a newly added downstairs toilet, which was a very smart move as the other toilets are situated up 2 flights of stairs.
beware on saturdays, and during school holidays when you have to struggle to get in as there are generally a lot of youths standing outside, with bikes all over the floor.
the staff always seem to be helpful, but same as everywhere, you get the odd one with an attitude who doesn’t really want to be there.
with upstairs seating, with a childrens area available, there is plenty of seating, although the upstairs seems to be shut quite a bit.

In the great debate which is centred around the two high st burger giants Mc D’s always wins over Burger King for me. And sad as it is to admit I have had this debate various times over the years — usually whilst I either very drunk — or whilst very hungover.
Yes I know its bad for you and I know its not particularly ethical — but there is something about the smell of the place as you walk passed that always lures me in. For some reason also the fries at Burger king are always over cooked and its really expensive in comparison– also for some reason a Whopper does not soak up excess alcohol in quite the same fashion as a Big Mac — not sure why but it doesn’t.
The Mc Donalds in Tamworth town centre — as with all sites I am sure — is heaving between the hours of 12 and 2, so its a mission and a half to battle through with a buggy and another child. However battle thru we do at least once a week to get a fix. Its a fairly low profile branch comapred to some of the city ones I have seen but the service is fairly efficient and the place is always fairly clean. The friendliness of the staff I had always been a bit undecided about until today — as I was juggling pushing the buggy, carrying shopping bags and balancing my tray of food — one of them rushed from behind the counter and carried the tray for me so I could get to the table without fries on my babies head. Only a small gesture — but one that she did not have to do — was not in her job description, and it warmed my cockles. Nice.
