Nice little McDonalds on the way to the beach. Staff were friendly and had no issue on my visit. It is in a unique location being part of a gas station. There is not a lot of seating like a normal McDonald’s has.

Half gas station. Half McDonald’s. Interesting combination. Super convenient. Food was hot, and came out quick. Super sweet young lady in the drive thru with brown hair and glasses helped us. Will be returning soon!

Small, part of the gas station building. No ice cream or desserts. Ladies working there are ON POINT. Has a drive thru, limited seating inside.

Never seen an awesome McD's. This is by FAR...THE BEST EVER. The parking lot was immaculate, the staff was exceptional, 100% sanitation report proudly posted at the window...and... the food looked like the advertisements! Best fish filet I ever had...the Big Mac was just perfect, too. (I only took two bites, but..only bc I was full!) I had not eaten at McDonald's in memory...stopped for convenience. Out of respect for this staff's efforts, I will make it a regular stop on my way to Nags Head Outstanding job!

Affectionately known as "McShell", this McDonald's is located in the Shell gas station. Two completely different vibes. There is a public unisex bathroom inside. The convenience store portion is cash only, right now. The coffee was hot and ready to go before I got to the drive-thru window. This location does not carry quarter pounders, and I don't think they have an ice cream machine, unless it's a newer addition. The service was great on my most recent visit.
