Sydenham's McDonalds is NOT the worst McDonalds in the country. Snipped at the post by Chingford.
But second worst is no recommendation - so why do so many go there and give it only 1-star reviews?
Still all the parasols in the world won't make eating in the middle of a huge car-park much fun. Weird there are plans to expand it - primarily for deliveries so no one will know where their meal came from. Not that it will make it taste any better.

Ooops!
Founded in Sydenham in 1985, Morley’s has grown into a cult London brand known for its fried chicken and burgers.
It's also attracted more than its fair share of imitators. Now one less.
Romario Henry of Bell Green, Sydenham, south London, was found guilty of two robbery offences after a trial in 2023.
The gang were told their sentences would be extended if they did not pay £754,525 within three months.
Two Richard Mille watches, valued at £400,000 and £350,000, are still missing after the raid on 27 November 2021.
More than 100 food support organisations in South London fear they may be forced to close in the face of growing demand for their services.
One is Rehoboth Community Outreach in Sydenham. It receives more than 7,000KG of food from The Felix Project’s Deptford Depot every month to feed around 450 people in the community.
Congrats to underdog Crystal Palace FC this afternoon. What corker!
We can almost call them our own as they were created in Sydenham's Crytstal Palace Park.
Yep we know other people dispute our claim but, we hope not, our opportunity to revel in the glory and a pint or three.
Fancy a free pint?
Not in Sydenham but worth the trip to Penge. These two pubs are offering:
* Crooked Billet, 99 High Street, London, SE20 7DT
* Pawleyne Arms, 156 High Street, London, SE20 7EU

Sydenham man arrested for the Starmer arson attacks
The new London Museum will feature our beloved Morleys.
Morley's began as a single shop in Sydenham, south-east London, and has become a common sight across many of the capital's high streets.
I noticed an area taped off by the police outside the Greyhound yesterday morning. We had passed that spot less than hour beforehand Friday night. Scary!
