This TikToker is trying to hit every McDonald’s in the U.S. and rate them all

How many McDonald’s locations do you think you’ve been to across the U.S.? Ten, maybe twenty? One TikTok creator is aiming to hit all 13,589 of them.

Posting under the handle @donnyboys10, the creator kicked off the challenge last July and has since visited 275 locations across the country, including stops in Chicago, California, Oregon, and Arizona. Each McDonald’s gets its own rating out of 10, complete with a short review and a tour of the facilities. And not every location is up to par.

The Hollywood Boulevard location in Los Angeles came in at just 3 out of 10. The TikToker wrote: “This very famous iconic location was absolute shambles.” The main complaints were the bathrooms, as well as the food being overpriced. “I almost didn’t even want to pay for it.”

The Encinitas location however, scored a solid 9. “Everything was available. Everything was clean,” he wrote. Even the bathrooms were “super luxurious.”

Throughout the challenge, @donnyboys10 has built an impressive following of over 128,000, with several videos racking up millions of views. In the comments, fans request to be tagged when he eventually reviews their local McDonald’s. 

“Im a day one, respect for you man”,” one user commented. “Bro is slowly getting closer to my McDonald’s,” another wrote.

According to the Daily Dot, @donnyboys10 averages 60 to 90 McDonald’s visits a month. At that pace, it would take him about 15 years to visit every single McDonald’s in the U.S. (assuming no new locations open in that time).

When Fast Company spoke to @donnyboys10 over email, he was more optimistic. He estimated the challenge would take about 9 years to complete. For now, he’s juggling his nationwide McDonald’s tour with a part-time job and pursuing his bachelor’s degree, which slows him down. 

“At the start there was one other person involved and we did it together,” he tells Fast Company. “As the challenge got harder and we needed to visit locations farther from where we were from, he stepped back and left the challenge to only me.” 

But that hasn’t stopped him. “I wanted to start this not only so I could go to McDonald’s,” he explained. “I try to pick places that I genuinely want to travel to. Besides going to every McDonald’s in the US, it has always been my dream to go to every city in the United States.” Fans can donate to help cover the costs—or buy him a Happy Meal—via a GoFundMe linked in his bio.

His favorite location so far? The famous blue McDonald’s in Sedona, Arizona, where the traditional golden arches are painted to match the skyline and preserve the area’s natural beauty.

The worst? “Between third and Pine in Seattle or most McDonald’s in downtown Portland.”
