Yelp has temporarily disabled reviews for the McDonald’s in Pennsylvania where former President Donald J. Trump held a campaign photo op because of a flood of phony write-ups and ratings.
On Sunday, Mr. Trump donned an apron and briefly worked the fryer at a McDonald’s in Bucks County, Pa., where he distributed orders to preselected customers in the drive-through and spoke with reporters.
However, his customer service led to a flurry of mocking reviews that were not based on customers’ firsthand experiences, as required. Instead, the reviews on the restaurant’s Yelp page criticized Mr. Trump and also took aim at the franchise, while some celebrated the former president.
“Don’t let convicted felons who tried to overturn an election stage campaign stunts,” one reviewer wrote.
“This was an awful thing that was done and McDonald’s is now the new chick filet, and will get ZERO of my money and my business, hope it was worth alienating EVERY Woman in the USA,” another reviewer wrote.
“There was a giant orange rat in the kitchen. The operator let it in to roam around and even posted pictures of it. Pretty weird,” another wrote.
Some expressed support for Mr. Trump.
“The best McDonalds I’ve ever been to in 47 years. The older employee was extremely nice. Make McDonald’s Great Again! Bring back the Dollar Menu!” one wrote.
More than 145 reviews were posted before Yelp temporarily disabled new comments at around 3 p.m. on Monday, according to the company.
