McDonald's

Sitting at the corner of Essex and Delancey Streets, this 24-hour location has calmed down from its historically chaotic early morning hours into a more standard neighborhood fixture. Inside, the staff accommodates the neighborhood by speaking English, Spanish, and Chinese. While the space is generally well-maintained, it can get messy during rush hours. Visitors suggest double-checking takeout bags before heading out, as order mix-ups are common, and multiple reports flag the sweet tea as frequently tasting sour.
