McCafes are inside the McDonalds store, not like a separate building like the video suggests. It has a separate counter and most people walk into the store to order food and sit down to eat from the McCafe. You can order both from the Mcafe counter and the normal counter. The stores are pretty clean and its always best to go to a high turnover store. You may wait a bit longer but because of the high turnover, food doesn't have time to sit and go bad both once cooked and sitting in storage areas.

McCafe was an Australian idea and once it took off here it went around the world to number of countries including across Europe. I’ve been to Macca’s around the world including San Francisco, LA, Chicago, NYC, London, France, China and apart from some regional differences in menu items, Macca’s is pretty-much the same.

It was delivered to me on a board and with a proper cappuccino mug and and the macarons on a proper China plate. Lol. We do have a value menu called the loose change menu. It's not called the dollar menu. Items for $2 etc.(which would about be the same as U.S $1) And no, you don't have to buy a meal to get it! I remember the loaded fries marketing initiative. We went and tried them. The most popular two results ended up on the menu. They've changed the loaded fries a few times since it started. The Mcspider (or float) is a frozen coke/fanta with a scoop of ice-cream on top. Not my thing but to each their own. Google, there's a bunch of places in Texas that sell Macarons.

Also McDonalds workers are paid under the Fast Food Industry Award in Australia which is currently (just checking) $29.59 an hour AUD or currently 22.01 / hour USD That's for casual which is the fairest comparison as full time workers in the US aren't guaranteed any vacation leave, sick leave or public holidays. If we take the full time wage for McDonalds workers that's AUD$23.67 an hour which is US$17.61 an hour with 4 weeks paid vacation leave, 10 sick days paid and about 10 days a year paid public holidays depending on which state you live in. The full time rates are $26.04 an hour for 10PM to midnight ($19.37 USD), $27.22 for midnight to 6 AM shifts ($20.24 USD). $29.59 for Saturday ($22.01 USD) and $35.51 for Sunday ($26.41 USD). Working on a public holiday gets you AUD$53.26 which is $US39.61. Casuals are paid more for each of those times up to a maximum AUD$59.18 on a public holiday a whopping US$44.03 an hour. Yet, burgers in Australia are really no more expensive than they are in the US. McDonalds restaurants are as ubiquitous, fast and well served. US workers are being ripped off.

So you can get your usual burger & chips, but also get a good coffee (or hot chocolate), tea, pastries, cheesecake, chocolate muffins, macarons etc... You collect your burgers as normal, and your McCafe purchase from the other counter. Sometimes in the drive through, you will collect the foods at separate windows if it is busy. Also, McCafe is an Australian invention. We also have multiple flavours of Frozen Fanta. At one stage there were 30 different flavours to choose from & you could mix 2 in the one drink.

Some of us still prefer those over chain burgers. My sister likes the fish and salad version. Fresh beetroot from the supermarket veg section, can be boiled then peeled, as is they are quite sweet, canned beetroot as used on burgers is pickled. People add whichever seasonings they prefer to beetroot and cook them as they choose. If you get purple fingers from touching beetroot, use toothpaste to get it off.

here in Australia we do have a budget menu at Macca's it's called the "loose change" menu with $1 frozen cokes & soft serve ice cream, $2 hamburgers & small fries, $3 sundaes and chicken mcbites etc. And yes here in Australia our wages are typically much higher than in the US, in Australia the minimum wage is about $20 an hour.
@christinebarrett92172 жыл бұрын
The only time our local Maccas soft serve doesn't work is on every Tuesday morning when it is cleaned. You don't have to order a full meal. You can just get one single cheeseburger or any burger if you want. Anything in a meal is available as a single item.

@@dutchroll I thought so, but that makes it even worse. I do get that in restaurants and diners in some states the workers don't even make minimum wage without tips because of 'tipped minimum wage' were the employer is allowed to pay as low as like $3 an hour with tips to make up the rest, that is just absurd!

@@myopinion69420 Yeah the tipping culture is out of control there. You’re also supposed to tip for haircuts. When we lived there for a year my wife got in trouble when she paid a hairdresser without tipping and got a lecture! Hairdressers, barbers, taxis, diners, restaurants, pubs, bars, and many other places. Anything less than 15% is considered insulting and 20% is not uncommon. Things like cafe food are expensive here compared to the USA but I always make a point to American visitors of saying “well you can cut 15-20% off that price up front before you start making comparisons.” Then you add in the bit about the waitress getting a half-survivable wage, super, leave, universal healthcare, etc.

@@dutchroll its more than a survivable wage if you live within your means. the minimum wage is now just over $20 an hour. I can see it not being liveable in places like Sydney, especially if you only work part timr. but if your careful with your money, live outside the big cities and work full time, you can live quite comfortably on minimum wage. I did for many years while saving up for a house deposit. I always get so annoyed at people that complain about 'never being able to buy a house' and that they can't save money on their $80k a year salary, yet they get a new iPhone EVERY year, with the massive data plans they don't even use and have to get the new iPad with it. no wonder they can't save money when they are spending close to $300 a month on a phone and an iPad. realised

We have 2 storey McDonalds but ive only ever seen them in Sydney.. The garlic aoli isn't available anymore I believe, and Vegemite I believe you can ask for a little packet of it from the McCafe when you order toast, as for the ranch and other dressings mentioned no we don't have that at Maccas but you can get them at any supermarket, but they are not as popular here as in America. I think a lot of the burgers mentioned in this are part of the Gourmet range, which stopped years ago. The Loaded Fries were also discontinued years ago I was very mad about that they were awesome. We had the Loose Change menu for a while but they stopped that too, but there are some things that stayed like hamburgers are 1$ after midday and frozen cokes are 1$ too The Create Your Taste menu with the delivered to your table fancy serving is also discontinued. This video must be pretty old because it's pretty inaccurate

Even when you type in "Maccas" in Google Maps, it takes you to the nearest McDonalds here... also, the govt here gives you a Seniors Card, when you reach a certain age. So when I go to Maccas, I get a free coffee or drink. Hungry Jacks (Burger King) does the same as well as KFC and other places. Some give 105 discount. Crispy Kreme gives 20% off for seniors on Tuesdays. There's heaps of other discounts as well, like half price public transport and free on weekends etc.

Hi guys, the images you are seeing in this are nothing like what maccas burgers look like. They are actual cafe burgers, you can see in the background that there is a cafe sign. And another one has MY BURGER on their aprons lol. Our burgers look just as shit as yours do. Nothing like the ads at all. We also don't have signs that say MACCAS. It would be be awesome if we did. Vegemite is not on anything at maccas at all. You can ask for vegemite if you have toast and they give it to you in a tiny plastic thing. We do get free wifi at maccas though and we do have garlic aioli. We also have amazing coffees at McCafe which you can still get through the drive through. It's all in the same maccas. Hope I have helped. My husband and I love you guys xxx P.S. Isaac Butterfield does men sex when he says Root 😂🤣🤣

The whole wooden tray, basket of fries, and skewer through your burger thing was kinda short-lived. At least in Victoria where I'm from. I don't remember that lasting more than a year or so before they just decided it was too much effort and went back to plastic trays and normal packaging. The table service thing was also short-lived. There was a period where you'd be given a thing to sit on your table that would allow the staff to locate you and bring your meal out, but now it's just back to the good old standing awkwardly in a crowd near the counter waiting for your number to be called out. edit. When I lived in town I probably went to Maccas like 3 times a week at midnight just for chicken nuggets. But having a meal there was probably a once a fortnight thing or less. There are better places to eat for the same price or less. There is also a bit of push-back in Australian culture towards chains. Especially international chains. People are far more likely to buy from a local family-run take-away store if its within normal business hours. edit2. This is probably why McDonalds endorse the slang term 'Maccas' so freely here, to try to make people feel like it's local, so they'll be more likely to go in.

The last time I went to Maccas was on the 11th March. I ordered a small "Big Mac' meal consisting of a Big Mac burger, small fries and small diet coke. The cast was $A11:30. By the way, the word 'root' has numerous meanings: the root of a plant, having sex 'Wanna root?' and feeling very tired 'I'm rooted/feeling rooted'. The Brits use the word 'shag' for both sex and weariness. We always have a laugh when a young American woman says that she's rooting for a particular team. Now, if a male says that................ If you aren't adverse to bad language, check out 'Rodney Rude - Maccas' on KZbin.. He was a popular, crude comedian of the 1980s/1990s. I saw him live once and nearly had a heart attack from laughing. Finally, Miles, like the Brits, we pronounce 'KZbin' as ;Youchewb' instead of 'Youtoob'. One of Rodney Rude's Maccas jokes was 'If ya go to Maccas and want a p*ss, in the toilet which queue do ya join - the 'junior burgers' or the ''quarter pounders'?
