On 22 near Mountain road is the
McDonalds that has one of the best play places in the Harrisburg Area. The play area is
separate from the main
restaurant, though the automatic door is right next to the drink machine so it constantly opens accidentally. It has 2 touch screen games that are too high for kids, and signs that say do not stand on chairs. First, no one pays attention to the signs and the employees don't enforce the rule, second one of the is usually broken. It also has 2 lower level touch screen games, but one of those is always broken. The play area has a bit of a reach to get to the upper levels which has been a thorn in the side of my youngest. This is the first year she has been able to get up without my help. It also has a air hockey game ($0.50) that is working most of the time.
What I like best: It has WiFi, though no place to plug in a laptop.
What I like least: The design of the play area. If you are there for any time, someone WILL go out the emergency exit setting off the alarm and the automatic door is too easy for little ones to disappear, and I already said that it is next to the drink refill station.
What the kids like best: happy meals and this is the McDonalds they call "The playplace with the slide and rolly things" because of the obstacle course in the upper level.
What they like least: having to sit and eat, though if I were smarter I would eat in the main area and then play, but I like getting there and lurking for the best table.
