Considering this Mickey D's is one of very few choices to stop for food and restrooms on the way to/from Rocky Point, we ended up stopping here twice over the long weekend.
I'm not a fast food fan, and I'm especially not a huge fan of McDonald's but I do have to say that they make a mean ice cream cone! Â I had a coffee on our first stop, which was just fine (although they didn't have my preferred sweetener - the pink one). Â On the way back, I went with a classic crispy chicken sandwich and had a few of Jared's fries; both were pretty gross. Â For 55 cents though, I had a bag of apple slices, which was a not only a great deal but a healthy option too. Â
Decent bathrooms and a changing station to boot, I was thankful for that (as was baby M). Â This is definitely not a destination but a decent road trip stop. Â Be prepared though, it gets very busy on holiday weekends!
The first Drive up window is covered with a sunblock screen, I drove by it only to hear knocking from the back of my truck. So I pulled back to pay. Then they forgot straws. Then had to pull back because they gave my 2 year old frys instead of apples. Gila bend is punishment from above!
Review Source:The food here is the typical McDonald's fare. We came here with a fairly large group (about 10) in order to get a quick bite to eat before we head out on the road. The food was ready in a timely manner and tasted like any other McDonalds (extremely processed).
Normally, I would give any McDonalds a 1 star review, but this one does make for a really clean rest stop. It's definitely a lot cleaner than one would expect it to be since it is so isolated. As such, it deserved 2 extra stars.
Overall: 3/5 (A-OK)
I have peed here many a time as I'm sure you have when traveling between Southern California and Arizona and let me tell you: for such a frequented pit stop and for being a lowly fast-food chain, this bathroom is surprisingly reliable and relatively clean. Quality pit stops are certainly 5-stars!
