Food Suggestions to Maintain Cholesterol Level at MCDONALD'S
Stopped in on a trip back from Branson just to get a chocolate soft serve cone; it was the first McD on our trip that got it right; the cone was filled (not hollow), the portion was fair, the coating was thick enough the ice cream was not showing thru and the ice cream was not melting out from under the chocolate (issues we had at other McD during our trip). The place was clean, the service was fast and friendly.

Hands-down the worst experience I've had in a drive-through. This drive-through consists of two lanes that say you can go at any time. I sat there for 10 minutes in one lane while the other lane kept moving. No one would take my order. I finally drove around to the window to place an order and they said that I would have to wait. I left and went across the street to a very cheerful greeting at Hardee's. I will never visit this McDonald's again. And FYI, I do not normally eat at Hardee's.

McDonald's is usually McDonalds... it's an occasional nostalgic treat for me and I depend on their never changing taste and appeal. It's hard to go wrong as they're usually well maintained and steady. So what's wrong with this location, other than the ice cream machine was down... how about the Fox News programming that they force you to watch if you dine in their dining room. The program was super offensive... almost made me lose my appetite. I almost got up and turned it off but by the time the disgust wore off, I was almost done eating. After more than a dozen years of stopping here every time I drive from Springfield to KC, I will not come again, even to drive-thru. There are too many other options around... The only reason it gets 2 stars is because the girl at the counter was nice. Won't see ya here.

Yes, Yelp Elites hit McDonalds. Because after a long weekend at the lake and you're heading back to KC, sometimes you just gotta eat. And you can't go wrong with this McDonalds. As others have said the owners keep upgrading the place. It's got ample parking if you have a boat trailer (not a lot but a few spaces). But for the most part it's fast, and if you got hungry kids that Happy Meal can mean a happier 90 min ride back into KC if they're not complaining every few minutes that they are hungry!

Ordinarily I wouldn't bother reading a McDonald's review, but when I did a "nearby" search and saw someone only awarded 2 stars to the Clinton location, I had to know why. I've stopped at this McDonald's numerous times for a Dr. Pepper (and maybe some fries) on my travels through Clinton. The employees here are always friendly, fast, and professional. Everything is clean, and no matter how busy the place is, the service is quick. I can't imagine anyone not being satisfied with this particular McDonald's. Oh, but the previous review had nothing to do with poor service, bad food, or dirty fast food restaurant bathroom. Nope. 2 stars because you didn't like what was on a TV news program? For reals? I stopped in for a Dr. Pepper on the way back to KC today, just to count the TVs. They have 2. One was on Fox News, but the other was on CNN Headline news. No one was watching either TV. Instead, there were just a couple groups of older gentlemen chewing the fat (maybe literally-it is a McDonald's) and drinking coffee. Surprisingly, based on the previous review, no one "forced" me to watch either TV news program. I'm not sure why the previous reviewer couldn't have just relocated to a seat near the other TV if she wasn't open minded enough to watch Fox. I'm also pretty sure no one would have cared if she did switch channels. As the welcome sign says, "Clinton: Good people by nature"--I highly doubt the laid back McDonald's employees (high schoolers and retirees) are trying to indoctrinate travelers here at the junction of Highways 7 and 13 into some sort of vast right wing conspiracy by forcing them to watch Fox News while they eat their McNuggets and sip their McCafe Mochas.

They are constantly upgrading. They donate a lot to the community. They've just added two drive thru lanes. Super fast service, even on those busy weekends to the lake. Oh and don't miss out on their sweet tea, it's the best!
