I uploaded one photo of this the first week in August 2013, and it was still transforming, ala Bumble Bee style it appeared! These photos are from the same day, it's probably finished by now.

 

From this view of the west side, the old McDonald's style was clearly still somewhat evident. This was one of those half-mansard red roof structures, a very common McD's style for a lot of the 90's. Here's a Google street view of this location, prior to remodel: goo.gl/maps/1TPFH

So little has changed over the past 10 months about this McDonald's, that about the only good way to tell this batch of photos from my 2013 batch is by the banner strung up on the front fence. Back then the banner was advertising "New Quarter Pounders".

On the triangular shape of land between Carling Avenue, Richmond Road, and Forest Street.

 

This is an alternate angle of the McDonald's seen in this photo, this time taken looking south towards Carling Avenue.

With the main downtown Toronto Henry's camera store & Henry's School of Imaging right next door.

This is a view of primarily the back end of the site, where several pallets of building materials are being stored. The lot used to slope downward considerably as I remember it, so they must have trucked in a lot of fill dirt to make it more level. This will look nothing like the same location when they are done.

Some times bad decisions are very tasty. I love Chicken McNuggets and big Macs. I only do McDonald's about every 6 months, but I do it right when I do.

That looks like external restroom doors on the rear south side of the building, but I don't even think those 90's retro revival McD's buildings were quite that retro! The drive thru will be on the opposite, north side of the building.

When this McDonald's restaurant opened in 1995 it was the first 24/7 McDonald's restaurant in the Netherlands. Opened in order to never close it. These around the clock operating hours were a bit too optimistic and they were closing again during the night. This restaurants is located on the border of Belgium (outbound seen from the Netherlands) on a rest area (former border station). The interior is fully renovated in 2009 and later on the exterior got the new European standard look with olive green and wooden elements.

THIS cost me £1.99.

 

I had a major hangover.

 

And I was thirsty for food and fizz and I had a belt of meal deal vouchers I picked up with a receipt from some tourist attraction I visited with the boys a while back.

 

I go to McDonald's perhaps once a year or eighteen months. Despite much improved interiors and colour scheme the food remains as dull, tasteless and, well, awful as it always has been.

 

By the way. After eating this I went and got a McChicken Sandwich meal and ate that too. It was only by an act of willpower of gargantuan effort that I did not use the rest of my belt of cheap deals in one sitting. I'm saving the rest for when my dole money runs out in a week.

Western influence in a land of great food.

 

Are you able to imagine half a dozen beggars in front of a McDonalds, asking people who come out there for some money? Come to Tbilisi and you will see it. All the food is a typical McDonalds cuisine, but atmosphere is still different.

A photo from the arhives taken in 2002 of the McDonald's Express location in shopping center De Kolk. This store opened its doors on the never succesfull foodcourt on the second level of this also never successful mini shopping center on the Nieuwendijk in Amsterdam. This shopping center has been stripped completely in 2007 and is now the address of a mega clothing store New Yorker. Apart from McDonald's there was a New York Pizza Slice store and a mexican fastfood store (Taco Mundo 'avant la lettre').

McDonald's in the Netherlands will invest around 45 million euros in employment, innovation and quality in 2013. As a result of this McDonald's will open 5 new restaurants in the first half of 2013. McDonald's Apeldoorn-Noord (opening May 2013), Moordrecht (opening 26/03/2013) and Sassenheim are under construction. McDonald's Sassenheim is nearing completion and opening is expected on March 27th which is 6 days after taking this photo.

This restaurant is located along the A44 highway and next to the train station Sassenheim with a huge Park & Ride facility.

The restaurant will feature a 'side-by-side' drive lane in the Drive-Thru. CEO Jo Stempels of McDonald's said "One of the highlights of this investment is also increasing the number of 'Side by Side Drive Lanes'. These are McDrives with dual lane at the beginning so guests in two cars simultaneously can place their order. This innovation is an important growth factor for our results in 2013. End of this year, we will have exactly 40".

At the end of 2013 McDonald's Nederland expects to provide more than 90 % of the 231 restaurants with a renovated interior and more than 80 % of the restaurants will have a revamped exterior as well.

McDonald's Sassenheim will open on 27/03/2013 and this will be the 233th McDonald's in the Netherlands.

My absolute favourite McDonald's in Montreal; it's a lot more laid-back and relaxed than the various McDonald's restaurants on Sainte Catherine's (probably not so much during rush hour, since it's in a train station, but I'm a late eater anyway, so I usually get there well past rush hour), and there's railroad photos on the wall.

Making directly towards this cameraman is a very large 1910-built McLaren road locomotive, 1110 "Big Mac", registered BF 5258. Fortunately I had the good sense to move out of the way in plenty of time.

 

The engine was visiting Beamish Museum as part of The Great North Steam Fair of 2015.

I've taken photos of the "new" Merivale Road McDonald's in Nepean at various stages of construction and waited a while to post them because I thought it would be more interesting to post them all at once.

 

I was going to wait until the re-opening, but I've gotten requests from people who want to see how the construction is coming along, so here are the best photos of what I've taken.

An Esso station with a Quickie convenience store instead of an "On the Run"/"Marché Express". That's not unusual in and of itself... the unusual part is what it also has: a McDonald's drive-thru. What manner of chimera hath I photographed?

 

I passed by this unusual hybrid location once on my birthday (October 2nd) in 2002, when I went on a day trip to suburban Ottawa from Pincourt, Quebec (where I lived at the time) to have a birthday dinner with my sister at Red Lobster, but, since moving to Ottawa in 2004, the exact location has eluded me until my mother turned the wrong way on Hunt Club after dropping my brother off at the airport. It's a couple of blocks east of Bank Street.

Antwerpen has 3 instore restaurants and 3 freestanding units in the direct vicinity. This was the first restaurant featuring a Drive-Thru in this area. This restaurant used to have a PLAYPLACE like they used to built in the USA. Now this area has been transformed into a more European Ronald Gym Club. No EasyOrder, side-by-side Drive-Thru and McCafé here.

McDonald's Best

A retro rock 'n roll styled restaurant with state of the art equipment like the EasyOrder terminals near the front counter. James Dean, Elvis Presley and Marylin Monroe would be surprised.

 

McDonald's Best opened in 1993 as a usual mansard roofed restaurant. But already with a rock and roll theme (juke box, Chevrolet Corvette on the ceiling, a life-size Marilyn Monroe) and in front of the restaurant a 10 meter high statue of Michael Jackson. In 2012 McDonald's Best has undergone a total make-over and got as the one and only McDonald's in the Netherlands a 1955 retro look with the golden arches and retro signage all around the site.

This McDonald's re-opened on 08/12/2012.

This McDonald's, in the Hog's Back Plaza strip mall at the corner of Meadowlands Drive and Prince of Wales Drive in the Rideau View area of Ottawa (the area that is west of the Rideau Canal and River but east of Fisher Avenue which is technically the eastern border of Nepean), recently got a facelift, incorporating the new flattened arch (that looks suspiciously like a frown).

 

This McDonald's is the most out-of-the-way McDonald's I know of in the Ottawa area, not being that close to much of anything besides a couple of large apartment buildings and some low-rise government office buildings. It's located in the sort of plaza that would usually attract, at best, a Subway sandwiches shop. I suppose it's semi-handy for Carleton University students, but that's still quite a troddle away. especially in winter.

Tunisia doesn't have fast food franchisings, and since tourists are

missing their daily fat, the restaurants have to improvise. This is a

menu called "Big Mac".

Hard to tell from this picture, but it appears they plan on keeping the high vault ceiling exposed in the very front of the new building. Perhaps the indoor playland will be returning here after all, the building looks to be big enough to accommodate one.
