Fog Blog Ridiculog: McDonald's West Reno Not A Hit With Patrons:

McDONALDS ON THE WEST SIDE OF SAINT JOHN HAS BEEN GOING THROUGH RENOVATIONS FOR THE LAST 21/2 MONTHS AND THE DINING ROOM JUST OPENED BEFORE CHRISTMAS! COSMETIC RENOVATIONS CONTINUE ON THE OUTSIDE. FIRST OF ALL THEY HAVE 2 LANES WHEN YOU APPROACH THE SPEAKER TO ORDER YOUR FOOD. THIS GETS CONFUSING FOR THE FACT THAT CARS HAVE TO MERGE INTO ONE LANE AFTER ORDERING....THIS HAS MADE MORE CONGESTION IN THE DRIVE THRU .....BUT THIS IS JUST MY TAKE ON IT!.......INSIDE , THERE ARE THINGS I LIKE.....FROM THE SIDE ENTRANCE AT THE PARKING AREA.......THEY HAVE A DIVIDER TO MAKE AREAS OF THE DINING ROOM PRIVATE AND ONE WALL HAS WHITE CERAMIC TILES....IT LOOKS NICE! NEGATIVE ....IS THE FACT THAT SOME OF THE SEATING HAS LITTLE PADDING AND YOUR BEHIND GETS SORE.....THE BOTTOM OF THE SEATS HAS A HARD EDGE THAT DIGS INTO YOUR LEGS AND THE DINING ROOM SHRUNK BY QUITE A BIT....MUCH SMALLER FOR FAMILIES TO SIT.! SOME TABLE TOPS ARE NO BIGGER THAN A PLATE. ONE THING DISAPPOINTING IS THERE IS NO FIREPLACE LIKE McDONALDS NORTH . THE MAIN ST . NORTH LOCATION WAS REDONE ABOUT 7 OR MORE YEARS AGO! THAT RENOVATION LOOKS CLASSY......I'VE BEEN IN THERE MANY TIMES AND IS COMFORTABLE!.....LASTLY AND MAYBE WITH THE RENOVATION DONE , THIS PROBLEM WILL RESOLVE ITSELF.....PEOPLE ARE COMPLAINING THAT IT IS COLD IN THE DINING ROOM!.....HOPEFULLY WE WILL ALL GET USED TO THIS RADICAL CHANGE!!
