I had a Macca's coffee last year and it was terrible but I had one at Australia zoo recently and it was even worse yes there's bad coffee out there but at least Macca's is consistently bad so you know what you're gonna get
Well, I have to say I wondered if it may have been a one off or not. Sounds like it may not have been. One of the mums at school yesterday was telling me how much she liked the Maccas coffee. Perhaps it's a case of taste being subjective ;D

Macca’s coffee isn’t all terrible. Mostly but not all!! In my employment I meet at McDonald’s (don’t work for them!!) nearly daily and often try a coffee to see what it’s like. Don’t shoot me!!! I have had some really good coffee (always milk based and not very often) from Mccafes and always ask the barista why theirs is good/better than the others. Usually it’s because they or the manager is passionate about coffee and keeps the beans in the grinder fresh and the machine clean (shock!). There’s one opposite keysborough shopping centre that does single origin offerings and always seems to make a decent lartay or flat white. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
I may give another one a go one day. That was my main reason for giving it a go, to see what it was like. I've bought probably less than a dozen coffees out since I started doing my own. Perhaps three years or so. Last Saturday night when we were out and about I braved a $1 coffee from a local-ish Caltex "The Foodary" outlet and it wasn't great, or even good really but it was a marked improvement on the Maccas one.
