Testimonials


home

Some major renovations have turned McDonalds Meats into a really wonderful space for finding all kinds of delicious foods. One thing has never changed and that is the kind hometown feel of a truly family run business. I grew up here with the McDonald family and the store is a reflection of their family's love and spirt!

My husband and I had our first visit here on our "date" day. We picked up several items, including pig ears for our dog, jerky for our kids, and chicken for grilling our supper. Everything was beyond exceptional, from the service to the selection, and from price to the taste. Fantastic place that has now become a regular stop on our travels through Clear Lake!
