McDonald's in Schiphol

A very clean and well-maintained establishment. Plenty of space. The windows overlook Amsterdam Airport, but the planes are a bit far away, not like in the video. However, it's a very atmospheric place. If you want to watch planes flying very low, it's better to go to the McDonald's south of the airport. There are only two bus stops near the bypass.

Clean and tidy McDonald's, ample parking with a nice view of Schiphol (spotters' area). Clean toilet.

For a beautiful view at the runway from the parkinglot of this diner.

The place is unclean and there are many insects in the room.

Super McDonald's, everything is freshly prepared and brought to your table. The area around Schiphol also has its charm; it's nice and busy but very clean there.

The place to be for potential plane spotting.

Everything that could go wrong, went wrong.

Convenient place to combine with a visit to Schiphol.

Nice McDonald's at Schiphol You can spot planes here outside on the terrace

Bonus :Great location for plane spotting.

This is a top Mac, plenty of staff, you get your food quickly, the toilets are free, and the restrooms have a luxurious look. So this is truly a 5-star.

Dirty toilet, otherwise just Mac Update 2026: clean toilet 👍

Mcdonalds , but neerby airport adds amazing views so its cool if you hungry

Neat, large McDonald's in a nice spot if you like airplanes. Children love it here with the spotters' area at this location.

We got banana milkshakes even though we definitely ordered vanilla, but the worst part is that there is no disabled toilet. Believe me... if you need one, it is impossible to move around in a normal restroom. The view from the terrace, however, is fantastic.

This restaurant we have took as a stop on the highway. It was a good stop.

The best-looking McDonald's I've ever been to in my life.

For a quick, great meal at a reasonable price. Always a pleasure to pop in. View of the Buitenveldertbaan runway. Improved after the renovation.

A great place near Schiphol Airport where you can grab a quick bite and it has parking. The view of the airport is beautiful.

Nice McDonald's with a view of the runway. Top service, our table was cleared for us, and my McFlurry was very well filled with M&Ms and caramel 👍🏻 delicious.

Parking here requires a parking disc. So pay close attention, checks are carried out.

Just McDonald's... Not really a friendly lady behind the counter at the drive-in. If you don't feel like it, just stay home.

It looked neat and clean. The toilets were in need of a cleaning, though. They weren't very clean anymore.

Mc Donalds with a view! Had a few burgers and watched the airplanes, had to wait a bit, but the view were good. Only lots of wasps.

Even though I'm not a McDonald's fan, but went for the grandkids, it was great. The grandchildren stood outside for a bit watching the planes and got a free ice cream. Where do you still get that? Also, very clean.

Nice view, easy to reach. The interior looked neat and modern. It was just strange that performance reviews seemed to be held with the staff in the restaurant in the afternoon, where everyone could overhear.

McDonald's is clean, compared to Germany, where I didn't even see the tables wiped down after customers.

The girl how came with the food plate hit the partition and spelled some coffee on the plate. She never bothered herself to replace the coffee or even apologize. Negative reviews on this place make sense now.

The McDonald's is fine, but parking is a nightmare; there are many taxis in the parking lot waiting there, preventing visitors from parking.

Absolutely amazing. Right next to the runway at Schiphol Airport. Benches for watching and eating at the same time. Food as always, service takes a little while because it's incredibly busy. No one can manage that in 2 minutes.

This MAC is always special... here you can see the planes from Schiphol. You can sit outside, and the food is brought to your table really super fast.

Very good and an excellent place

I went to the McDonald’s in Hoofddorp today and had 2 vegan wraps. I got a terrible stomach ache, and so did my little brother. I am never coming here again. Period.

Perfect for grabbing a burger and watching planes take off and land. Highly recommended.

Great place for spending some time with kids. Ample parking plus space for watching planes although all are quite far and the nearby runway was not being used

Perfect spot to eat at McDonald's with a direct view of the AMS airfield. Great spot for plane spotting with a large parking lot! 😁✨️

McDonald's is right at the airport. Definitely worth a visit.

And a Mac like any other, were it not for the special location. That's why it's worth a visit.

English text in the order automat was out of sync. Even adult employee had problem to choose order number to have on the table.

Great McDonald's! Served quickly and friendly staff. It's also made deliciously fast. That's how fast food restaurants should be.

Picked up food and unfortunately a Big Mac was missing. Not nice, but it can happen. Called politely and we were laughed at. We were told to figure it out ourselves. I am still in shock. This is not the way to treat customers! Very poor service and we have basically been ripped off because we won't be getting the Big Mac anymore 🤷‍♂️.

Service a 3, opens way too late in the morning hours. Not open by 7:00 AM while many people are already active in the area. A missed opportunity for revenue. And the coffee is way too expensive.

At opening, all the tables were so filthy that you finally didn't want to sit down.

Waited 15 minutes for 2 menus, needed to ask 5 times for our food only to hear its getting prepared, it wasn't even busy. In the end stale fries, totally unresponsive service.

A great place to watch planes, but it's worth checking which runway they take off/land from before you go to avoid disappointment with an empty runway.

Very nice and clean McDonald's with a great view of the airport runway. Nice experience for the kid's

The best thing about this is you can grab a bite and watch plane landings.

Look... I'm giving this Mac 5 stars because I'm comparing it to other McDonald's. We come here regularly and rarely have our table service order incorrect or cold. The location is, of course, amazing with a view of Schiphol and the runway. The outdoor terrace is also great. There's practically always a spot for your car, which is often an issue at McDonald's. There's also a McCafe on site. Maybe the cleanliness of the restaurant, the exterior, and the restrooms could be a bit sleeker, but oh well... It's actually impossible to manage when there's so much foot traffic and people behave like animals when they're at McDonald's.

This McDonalds is a great place to plane spot while getting a bite to eat. There are plenty of seats outside for watching. The service was relatively quick and the food was typical.of McDonald's fare. The only drawbacks were the fact the garbage cans were in desperate need of emptying. The other not so great thing was the children running around like the patio is an amusement park. I don't mind children having fun, but this was out of hand. Where are the parents? For planespotters, recommended.

Nice view! You can eat watching the airplanes.

The view is everything, i really liked this place and spend time here just by viewing the landing of flights many times.

One of the better McDonald's, just always very busy.

After beeing greeted by the most unmotivated cashere i have ever seen, i was left paying without knowing the actual amount or what window to drive to. But that not all, order 2 caramel sundays, received 1,5 Sundays without cashew nuts, after approaching the lady about 1 sunday cup being half full i was given a death stare i have never seen before, if this is how clients are treated these days for actual requesting service they pay for then this mcdonalds shout he shut down, i have never in my life been treated with this much disrespect, all for not accepting service below expectations, after all did not even get a receipts even after asking for one.

One of the managers is always yelling at her staff. As a customer, I am already annoyed by it; I can't even imagine having to work with her.

Friendly staff, beautiful location, and great food.

The best service, everything impeccable, and all the employees are kind!

Surprisingly very good! Ordered through drive-in.

This is a perfect combination of eating and then plane spotting. This McDonald’s is always busy. There are plenty of seats outside as well, and inside too, of course. If you are coming for the planes, it might be useful to check if this runway is in use. As far as I’m concerned, the best McDonald’s location.

Not to be missed like all McDonalds

Lovely to grab a quick snack after a flight.

Takes a bit long but it is tasty

It may be very busy this afternoon (July 19), but that should not affect the quality of the food. This afternoon, the fries were lukewarm and not crispy (let's say limp).

The opening hours are very convenient, especially for early morning or late evening trips. We go there every year during our layover in Amsterdam because we stay at the NH Hotel next door, which is very practical. There are also other hotels in the area. For French speakers, the language selection on the kiosk is helpful; otherwise, the menu is always the same and doesn't change. There aren't any new sandwich options like in France, but we're happy with it because they have the classics, so there are no surprises on the bill. Orders arrive very quickly. Cleanliness is decent. I recommend it during your layover.

Decent mcdonalds with friendly staff right by the runway at Schipol, offering apron views and sometimes landings. A true heaven for aviation enthusiasts. There are benches with paid binoculars next to the mcdonalds that allow you to see planes up close.

A regular McDonald's, just like anywhere else. However, it has the unique feature of being located right next to the runway at Amsterdam Airport. You can watch lots of planes – very interesting.

Coffee with apple pie is delicious. Always nice and quiet. Excellent service. A delightful break stop.

It’s McDonalds but it is the place that makes the 5 star rating. We always go here for our date nights to spot the planes and of course you’ll get a coffee or an ice cream then. I really like this location.

A very busy location. Huge parking area. They are busy but friendly and efficient I felt. When I returned because of an error in my take out order they quickly and fairly made everything correct. That was much appreciated.

It was an awful experience. There was no food around, so the only option was this place. We received 80% of our order with our file o fish never making it even though we paid for it. We also only got knives and had to eat the salads with it. Avoiding this place is a privilege.

One of the young waiters needs to improve, but the rest is perfect. The cashier is really great. I recommend it.

The location meets chain store standards. Its proximity to the airport is excellent, which is a huge plus and a rarity!

I come here often. It is a nice place to wait for travelers landing at Schiphol. Business people also meet here for a brief meeting. The staff is enthusiastic through and through, takes their duties seriously, and serves at a rapid pace. Understandable, as there is always a clientele. This entices me to keep coming back. They recently added a "chicken wings" menu. Yummy 💚 Personally, I only need these wings with a cappuccino or a bottle of water. When I have my laptop with me, I can work undisturbed with table service and a view of the airport. Beautiful. There is usually a holiday atmosphere 👌👌 Plane spotters can be found in large numbers, as well as passenger transport entrepreneurs. 👍👍👏👏💐💐

I came to this McDonald's by bike. My final destination was the urban jungle, but I stopped here first. The food and drinks are the same as other McDonald's. What's interesting is its proximity to Schiphol Airport, so if you choose to sit outside, you can watch the planes coming and going.

Very unique restaurant same McDonald’s food could be on the tarmac and see some flights

Next to Schiphol, best free parking spotter's spot

The best McDonald’s in the Netherlands! And enjoy watching planes while you're at it.

A McDonald's. Unfortunately, the food closes before 1:00 AM, just like at other branches. The drive-thru is open until 2:00 AM, and not until 3:00 AM as their website indicates.

Beautiful, spacious McDonald’s with a nice view of Schiphol and the runway. Incredibly friendly employee; my daughter was even allowed to scoop her own ice cream!

Nice big McDonald's and you can also watch the planes at the same time.

Get a quick answer at a beautiful location.

I ordered a coffee from the kiosk and sat down. However, they came to my table and said McCafe was closed and they weren't serving coffee. I had no choice but to order a milkshake. Less than half an hour later, I saw that McCafe was counting the coffee as a gift.

4 stars average total, food 1 star because we didn't eat there, service 3 stars because the toilets were very dirty and the tables too, atmosphere 5 stars because this is due to a spotter's location

Nine years ago I would have given this location 4 stars, but now it looks even more like a factory. The children's playhouse has been gone for a few years; the only soul it still had is gone. It is a fine place for waiting taxi drivers, and they have to go somewhere too, but I would no longer recommend it for families.

Spacious and tidy restaurant. Ample parking spaces. Location next to the Buitenveldert runway at Schiphol, ideal for spotting planes.

Nice food while plane spotting and friendly staff

The view is amazing and is more interesting than the decor in the restaurant . There is sufficient parking , DC charging and clean toilets and is a good spot to hang out if you are waiting to pick someone at the Schipol airport . There are more than enough pictures of the restaurant so here is the videos of the views . Kids would love this place

Sasha thinks it's a great place and he loves the smells and he likes watching the planes go brr uwu. Shout out to Steve for being the sassiest vegan I've ever seen at a McDonald's.

We arrived close to closing time. They told us that dine-in service was closed before we could order online, but the person in charge still served us. We found it strange that the food was prepared by bare hands without gloves; it didn't seem very hygienic. I don't know if it was because it was closing time, but the food seemed carelessly prepared, although drive-thru service continued. Also, the ketchup wasn't showing in the basket on the screen; we pressed the button a few times, and this time they gave us ten ketchups. The fact that it wasn't showing in the basket seemed wrong to us; maybe we missed it in a hurry. In conclusion, hygiene and taste were average, but the service was good.

horrible customer service. the site says I can order takeout. I called 5mins straight around 5pm and no one answered.

Don't let people in 1h before closing time

The staff doesn't seem to be very enthusiastic. I first had to wait five minutes for help (it was the only car), and then I was helped by grumpy staff! They're not hired for spontaneity!

Nice restaurant to watch planes. I was here for breakfast, and they were cleaning with an electric vacuum cleaner that was incredibly loud. My ears were ringing. Maybe not so smart to do this next to customers... The poor employee isn't wearing hearing protection either; he definitely needs it.

Very cold inside. Long waits, staff working chaotically, orders often incomplete.

Hello. I received such terrible service at this McDonald's. First of all, they're always grumpy or arrogant. Secondly, the fries are always cold! And when you bring them back to them, they always look at you with a very arrogant attitude. While you're supposed to be happy with your customers. I really don't understand this at all!!! I hope they change soon!!! 😤😡

It seems like many taxi divers come here for break, which means it’s good place to relax. Also you will have chance to see airplanes taking off, or landing. Food was quick, waited just 5 mins. Cleaners were cleaning every 5 mins.

Music is often too loud. Even now.

The food is good, but eating your food in the parking lot among the rats is a bit less.

Just like a McDonald's should be. It's a busy spot in the Randstad with a spotter's area next door, but it's managed very well.

Communication between staff very noisy.

My daughter's boyfriend ate here late last night. He's been throwing up all night and still is. He's very sick. It's unbelievable how bad this is.
