Always get their Georgie pie hunger buster which does the trick. Love the chips at this branch, sundae machine always working here and always get the strawberry shake. Quarter pounder included too. Georgie pie is average and doesn’t live up to its name, but the combo satisfies the cravings!
We bought take away from here in the afternoon. Food quality is above average, and staffs all really friendly. Easy to find car park at this mc.

For burgers- I will give 5/5 stars, because they make the entire chicken very crispy. The buns are full of delicious sesame seeds so it makes it more delicious. And that makes my mouth so drooly by the tastes. And the lettuce tastes so nice that the lettuce makes the burgers more crunchy.
Chicken Nuggets- 5/5, stars because the chicken nuggets are super crunchy. The chicken nuggets are endlessly tasty with the sweet and sour sauce.
Fries-⅘ stars, because the fries don’t give any taste in them. The fries are not so crunchy because they don’t let them cook a lot. Fries have lots of potatoes inside and that makes the fries a little bit sweet. And it tastes delicious with the sweet and tomato sauce.
Drinks-⅘ stars, because the drinks are to freezing so when we drink it we could get sick or you can not drink any more drinks until you feel better. And the drinks helps you to cool down in the summer times.
Ice cream-5/5 because you can get them for 2.00 dollars. You can also get sundas for $ 2.00 dollars as well. And In the summer it really helps you to cool down in the hot burning sun.

This Maccas is my local and have probs been here at least 10 times now over the past five years.
Food wise, its as consistent as you can get for its product.
Service wise, Iv'e had the odd one or two experiences from staff of the "I hate my job" service
The environment compared to other maccas I've been to I would say is def above average.
If I can recall this was one of the first make your own ones in NZ too.
Create your taste experience has always been spectacular and have found myself making the same Burger every time. As far as cleanliness goes, they could be doing better, however it is still well above the average McDonald's cleanliness. They have however, greatly reduced the options available for the Burger creation experience which is a bit disappointing, so it looks as though Greenlane has an even bigger upper hand now. Still, convenient, local and relatively clean for a fast food place, if you're a fan of Maccas this is a good one.
A lot of parking space, and a lot of seats for everyone. This is one of the best McDonald's around town. Went here when the Create your Own burgers started and it was only available here. The burger that I customised was made beautifully and the fries were great as well.
The best McDonalds in NZ where not only the service is good but food is better too nice & hot. The toilets are also so neat not like the other stores. Its very clean & tidy place to stop by & grab a meal....Well done!!
Why you close so early!
This McDonald's is lazy and closes way too early. It's next to all the restaurant in dominion road, and this is the first restaurant that closes.
Apart from that it's a good McDonald's and the first in the country to start the make your own selection
Food Quality: 4/5

Stopped by for a quick frozen fanta and soft serve after dinner. The order ended up taking very long as the frozen fanta wasn't dispensing properly. About half a cup's worth came out at first and then it took a few minutes for the staff member to fill it to the top. He looked at me sheepishly asking if I wanted that one, to which I honestly replied "no, not really". Understandingly, he tipped it out and tried again with no luck. He offered a frozen coke which I didn't want, as my partner had already gotten one instead. Eventually I was offered a refund which I accepted although my soft serve had melted quite a bit by then (I like putting the two together like a float). What turned this visit around was when they took the time to give me a free frozen fanta while I was sitting down a moment later. They must have gotten the machine working and it was unexpected but lovely of them to remember me even after the refund was made. Good form, McDs Balmoral. Will return for a cheeky soft serve and frozen fanta in the future.
I love a good gourmet burger so I couldn't wait to try McDonalds create your own service in Balmoral McDs. There were heaps of options so you can pretty much make up your perfect burger! We used the self service to order and then they brought it to us. The fries in a basket was also a nice touch!

McDonald's have come a long way with their new Create Your Taste burgers 🍔 Firstly its fun creating your own conception on the touch screens. Secondly the burger arrives at your table looking picture perfect. Tastiest McDonalds I've ever had 👌
Better than other Mc Donald's!
They have the make your own burger option along with the touch screen tvs to order with :D
Also very crowded after 3pm weekdays because of school students :(
wouldn't normally write a review about a chain restaurant but this was worth it.
I decided to try out the gourmet make your own burger options and it was delicious. bit pricy to do all the time but chilli jam and mustard makes a burger I have decided . gets served at table with sauces and a refresher
towel which is nice to have. great idea for a treat and don't forget to add crispy bacon to burger if you try it. awesome

Heading home from drinks, Mr M and I were contemplating a quick eat a little out of the norm before heading home to relieve the baby-sitter. It was then I remembered a convo with Two Dark Coffees about the "create your own" burger range at Balmoral McDonalds. Available until 10pm, we squeaked in just in time and it was still a popular choice when we got there.
Only three out of the four touch screens were working- it was unclear whether the fourth was just closed or broken. We stepped up to one of the screens and placed our orders. The interface was relatively easy to use. My only two gripes would be the following:
A) it is currently only set up for beef burger ordering - I'd hope that in future they would roll out at least chicken burger options
B) at only one point are you offered the choice of making it a combo meal. At one point later on we considered it but could not find an easy way to do so and just stuck with the burgers. Regular McDonalds staff appear to be trained in upselling so it was surprising to see a lack of this in the ordering app.
The burgers arrived fairly quickly considering they were constructed from scratch and were presented beautifully. The taste was absolutely spot on too - I was most impressed that the crispy bacon was actually crispy! All in all, well worth the slightly pricier spend.
It's not something that we'd do every time we wanted a cheeky fast food meal, but it's definitely a fun and novel thing to do with a group of friends or on a date night.

When I signed up for Zomato I gave myself an unwritten rule. I said to myself that I wouldn't review mass produced, chain restaurants or cafes and here I am.
But some rules are made to be broken and this one for good reason.
Create your own burger. A simple concept but something never seen before in a New Zealand McDonalds Restaurant - until Balmoral.
I was there 4 days after it first got underway and it's taken me 22 weeks to get onto a review, not great statistics but it was something I wanted to keep under wraps...and so did McDonalds.
Balmoral served as the testing grounds for the new project "create your own taste" and there was no official advertising just incase it went bust. Fortunately Instagramers were soon on the scene and from there it became a race to get your hands on your very own burger.
With table service and customisable burgers starting at $10 and working it's way up to $22 (my burger), McDonalds is getting a little bit fancy.
In the centre of Balmoral's McDonalds, stand four digital self-serve kiosks. You can customise everything from the type of bun used to the amount of lettuce placed in your burger.
Burgers are served on wooden boards, fries in metal baskets and additionally you receive a moist toilette.
Some people say it's too expensive for McDonalds and others say it's a cool novelty they'd like to see it in more outlets - I'm with these people.
Don't expect to receive a burger out of this world, but it'll be a damn sight better than choosing one from the original menu.

We came to try the create your taste burgers and to be honest, these tasted a lot better than normal McDonalds burgers but the price was a little high. Really cute presentation of the meal and a nice touch in customer service by having us seated and delivering the meal to us.
The build your own burgers were great! The screens are very easy to use and the staff are helpful with building your burgers and bringing the meal to you. One small catch is the price does not update as you go on the burgers you make so they can get a bit pricey at the end with all the extras.
Always say i am fans of McDonald (yes... i know it's unhealthy), so when i know they offer the build your own taste menu in Auckland, i asked my hubby to take me there at once! it's so convenience that they offer 4 machines for customers to build your own burgers (you can order food from the standard menufrom this machine as well).
At this stage, they offer build your own taste for beef burger only - so we just ordered one build your own taste burger and one standard chicken burger. It's so fun that we can select the indigents and even sauce ourselves.
After ordering and pay via the machine, we can just select the area we sit, then the waiter will bring our meal to our seat! The waiter serving us was so energetic and nice even we know he was very busy .
My hubby said the burger is so great and just like those offer in the proper burger restaurant! We were pleasantly surprised with the burger
In generally, it's a very great experience~ Highly recommended!
We came to try the new build your own gourmet burger feature being trialled at Balmoral. It was easy enough to build our burgers with the screens provided and the options were pretty varied so all tastes are provided for. I'm hoping they'll bring out a chicken option at some point but at the moment there's only beef.
It was strange to have a waiter at McDonald's but it was nice to have some interaction with the staff. Our burgers came out on wooden boards and our chips were served in mini frying baskets which was really pretty. I had guacamole and nachos on my burger with bacon and cheese and caramelised onions. It really was a gourmet burger.
I thoroughly enjoyed the experience and hope that they roll this service out more widely soon.
Not busy in the morning so we didn't have to wait
for long, but no call was made when the food was ready. Coffee was nice and hot.
Fingerprints on the glass doors and playground area, and tables Not cleaned up.
Whoever was on making burgers at lunch time today needs a pay rise please and they need to train the rest of your staff on how to put the burgers together. Both burgers were delicious and had the appropriate amount of lettuce and sauce. The presentation wasn't sloppy like maccas usually is. Thank you
Cheese burger and Big Mac are always the classic
They've Improved Considerably.
Service is Great now.
There Burgers & Fries are always fresh!
This Macdonalds in Balmoral is always busy and most times you having to wait ages!
Not any more!
That's why, "I've given them a
5 STAR RATING!
was amazing service this day, the woman/possible supervisor or manager that helped me after the kiosk didn't want to work was so helpful. food was nice hot though the fries havnt been the best the few times I've been in.
Always a good time. The young team of staff that they have on are wonderful and there is a sense of synergy and efficacy throughout the place. Management has a great range of workers on. The owners understand the value of having happy, competent staff.
😁😌
Best maccas I've been to! The tables were sparkling clean, food was fresh, and soft serve was absolutely to die for! The toilet was also surprisingly clean, instead of having wet ground from the hand drier, they have paper towels near the entrance to dry your hands which is a huge plus. 10/10 would come again, in fact, I am thinking about getting a job here!

Nice and always clean. Plenty of parking spots and a nice drive through. This is my weekend-to-go place for breakfast.
Revisited this place again. Happy with everything I said a month ago. The highlights are Cleanliness, Staff with Smiles, High Quality of service.
I've ordered from Balmoral, over the last 11 months, never had an issue with the meals. Besides, wait service took a little longer. Maybe the patties were too cooked and everything else tasted great. Honestly I ordered from other restaurants, so disappointed with the quality of their food. Balmoral Macdonald's have never served me any raw or uncooked food.
Very satisfying!!!
