The McD's in Santiago definitely sucked. But that was years ago. I can't imagine a McD's in the DR that doesn't suck. I doubt I will ever go to the one in POP.If eating in tourist areas not only will you "pay through the nose" but the quality on offer is usually subpar. Taste or lack there of is also very subjective, in all things.
Interestingly many people have told me, and posted here on DRuno I believe, that the McD's in the DR is different and possibly better. I can't recall the last time I was in one since I don't eat fast food and definitely not McD's. It may have been about another franchise but the thought is the same.
I would however like a piece of the profits since Dominican's seem to love American fast food. I'd much rather exist on rice and beans. Luckily I have options and am a decent enough cook
- Thread starter NALs
- Start date
McDonald's in Puerto Plata
Dominicans love any food that makes them fat regardless of the brand so why not add my favorite which is Popeyes.
You wouldn't ever get in - there would be line longer than the line at Ban Reservas on pay day
Chef Pepper is good and regarding American food I can recommend Gringo Burger in Las Terrenas. Their Jack Daniels Burger and Chili Hot Dog.
Before the pandemic the Popeye brand was being registered. I have no idea if it's still in the plans to open Popeye's in the DR.
Don't go. Eat fresh organic fruit, veg and meat from dominican farmers.
Ya the beef is especially good after you pressure cook it for two days
All American fast food sucks.
It's just fast food, to produce conveniently at low cost for the outlet to improve profit margins.
Nutritional values are zero and detrimental to your health.
Burger joints, Subway, Pizza, fries, soft drinks, bad fat , sugar and salt.....
There are many countries EU, Asia where one can get quality healthy street food.
If you want a good burger make it at home.
I like Taco Bell. That would be the biggest winner here as well.
Taco Bell is also crap. I taste them a few times, but this ha nothing to do with mexican food. When you're in SD you can eat way better here:
Google Maps
Find local businesses, view maps and get driving directions in Google Maps.

I eat I think just twice at Taco Bell and maybe I was unlucky because I didn’t like it. In fact it was so bad I remember one time was in London, England and the other once in Santo Domingo I think on Lope de Vega.
I'll take a contrarian over a charlatan any day of the week.
