welcome to mcdonald's may i take your order can i get a mcdonald's is one of the most recognized
restaurant brands in the world but some outlets may seem less familiar here are 10 mcdonald's
locations you won't believe actually exist roswell new mexico ufo-shaped mcdonald's one mexican
cheeseburger it's debatable if aliens can be found in the parched deserts of new mexico but one thing
is certain you will be able to find a mcdonald's in the form of a flying saucer there the infamous
ufo crash sighting in roswell new mexico occurred in 1947 when debris was discovered on private land
just north of the town the roswell army airfield declared they had captured a flying saucer when
the property owner showed the wreckage to the sheriff who subsequently showed it to the army
the wreckage originated from balloons according to members of the military at the time a top-secret
military effort that would release high-altitude balloons to spy on the soviet union but the town
has been linked to alien activity ever since which is reflected in a nearby mcdonald's the mcdonald's
on the city's main street is made up of so much metal and glass that it appears capable of flying
off to another world at any moment this mickey d's is shaped like a ufo taking advantage of the local
lure smart and smart not only that but a local artist has painted a mural on the enormous wall of
a neighboring building featuring ronald mcdonald as well as birdie the early bird flying about
a planet-sized brain in spaceships the artwork provides something to think about for customers
waiting in line at the drive-through as well as a picture opportunity for roswell's extraterrestrial
minded fast food eaters dallas texas happy meal-shaped mcdonald's well stop me to get
on the outside most mcdonald's outlets are very similar familiar yet plain and the same can be
said about the interior this is true for the majority of the restaurant's numerous locations
throughout texas of which there are many this out of the ordinary mcdonald's in dallas texas however
defies the trend on bulls counts this dallas store is constructed like a large happy meal box
featuring recognizable characters painted on the windows like the hamburglar and ronald mcdonald
as well as a massive big mac sculpture protruding over the main door and as if the restaurant's
distinctive exterior wasn't enough the inside is just as wild the restaurant's interior
evokes a fine dining experience with ralph lauren designed wallpaper mahogany boots and austrian
crystal chandeliers not bad not bad it could be the fanciest mcdonald's interior you'll ever
see christian norway mcdonald's in a former bank i've got it i'm robbing the bank you'd be
excused if you were unaware that christian sand is norway's sixth largest city it gets more sun
than virtually everywhere else in the nation has baltic sea beachfront not far from the city center
and even organizes a 60 000 person annual beach festival but did you know the city is also home
to a mcdonald's that's housed in a once majestic bank building with four giant marble pillars
marking the entrance unfortunately the doorway is purely for show so you'll have to enter by the
side door which is much less impressive yeah no biggie this branch like many other golden
arches locations across the world provides location-specific menu items such as the
mclox a grilled salmon sandwich with dill sauce mcdonald's initially opened in norway in 1983.
and it was an instant sensation they source a lot of their products from norwegian suppliers
with three-quarters of the ingredients coming from norwegian businesses freeport maine 19th
century mansion mcdonald's we don't all live in mansions this is hardly a mansion margaret
mcdonald's isn't known for its opulent eateries but there are a few exceptions in freeport maine
a beautiful golden arches restaurant is built inside a 19th century estate with a sign burying
the fast food chains renowned emblem placed tastefully on the front lawn inside patrons
dine on lobster rolls and classic big macs in an elegant dining area with a majestic fireplace and
candelabra it was around 1850 when maine merchant william gore erected the home the mansion known
as gore house is a mix of greek revival and italianade architecture mcdonald's attempted
to open a restaurant on the property in the early 1980s but residents opposed the plan because the
fast food establishment's characteristic red and yellow architecture violated the municipality's
rigorous architectural design rules no just come on no mcdonald's and the town
finally reached an agreement the freeport zoning board of appeals granted the business permission
to open a restaurant within the historic gore house in late 1983. inside the 19th century home
of a former ship captain you can find luxurious and elegant furnishings as well as your classic
mcdonald's menu and if you dare order a mcdonald's lobster roll if you're seeking something unique to
new england as we keep moving on take a second to hit that like button would ya thank you
next taopo new zealand the airplane mcdonald's good news is we'll be landing immediately the
bad news is we're crash landing some airplanes may offer burgers as part of their in-flight meal
options but they'll certainly pale in comparison to the big mac served at a mcdonald's in taupo new
zealand believe it or not this mickey d's dining section is housed within a decommissioned jet
the plane sits stationary on land that was once a used car dealership so there's no burger flipping
happening in the cockpit at 30 thousand feet the plane was purchased by the dealership's owner for
the curiosity factor to draw in customers game changer and when mcdonald's purchased the land
the grounded plane came with it the plane in question is a dc-3 from the 1940s and can now
seat up to 20 people after being transformed into a dining room this particular aircraft was
produced in 1943 and flew for new zealand's south pacific airlines from 1961 to 1960
it has been repainted to include the restaurant's iconic branding on the side of the plane
what a cool way to feel like you're truly getting some world-class in-flight service while enjoying
your favorite burger from the golden arches frog czech republic mcd is next to the communist museum
not there anywhere but there oh a museum the museum of communism is located in prague czech
republic a beautiful city and among europe's most visited places a unique mcdonald's is also located
just adjacent to the museum that's interesting that's very interesting the museum which is housed
in a former nobleman's castle focuses on the political regime that ruled czechoslovakia and
much of eastern europe until 1989. the museum was founded by a political science student from the
united states of course there are many propaganda artworks and posters at the museum and most of
the material was purchased at flea markets by the institution's founder there's some irony in having
a world famous burger joint one that is viewed as one of the emblems of american capitalism
no less beside the museum dedicated to communism but there's nothing like learning about the past
and walking around a museum to work up an appetite and then walking across the street to grab a big
mac luxer egypt mcds near the luxor temple you don't like ancient egypt fast food restaurants
are common around egypt's famed old archaeological sites in plain sight of one of the famous seven
ancient wonders of the world you may feast at a kfc or a pizza hut immediately across from the
pyramids of giza many visitors are surprised to learn how close the pyramids are to civilization
and familiar restaurant chains which many imagine are in the middle of an empty desert a mcdonald's
near the luxert temple in egypt's southern city of luxer offers a similar experience the city is
known as the world's biggest open-air museum and this three-story mcdonald's outlet overlooks the
ruins of the luxor temple which dates back to the 1300s bc and was built by a number of successive
pharaohs the mcdonald's with the greatest view in the world according to some is quite a wonder
itself no doubt no doubt no doubt no doubt egypt is also home to the world's second cheapest big
mac although a big mac costs around six dollars on average in the united states it costs only about
two bucks in egypt due to the conversion rate for the most die-hard mcdonald's fan it may be
worse the trek to egypt just to load up on some seriously cheap food from the famous restaurant
chain oh and i guess the pyramids of giza may be worth visiting as well negev desert israel the
desert mcdonald's the good news is you're in the middle of a desert when it comes to determining
where to open a new fast food restaurant location is usually the most important factor it's unclear
what mcdees were thinking when they chose to build a mcdonald's in the negev desert of israel
i have no idea tourists occasionally stop at this mcdonald's on their way to the vacation areas in
southern israel nonetheless considering how barren and unaccommodating the surrounding terrain is
this site is unlikely to attract much foot traffic the yearly rainfall in the negev region where this
mcdonald's is located is less than eight inches the name negev which means dry in biblical hebrew
was given to the desert to reflect this feature when it does rain though it pours
the negev is vulnerable to flash floods due to the dryness of the land which may be incredibly
dangerous stranding people and even causing a few deaths every year the negev desert which
covers almost half of israel's geography is so barren that hikers on the israel national trail
must bury water ahead of time and then dig it out afterwards because huge swaths of the negev have
nowhere to replenish their water bottles but if you stumble upon a mickey d's while on a desert
trek it might not be a mirage but the real deal rome italy mcdonald's beside the spanish steps
let's get some dinner it's still like italian if you're on vacation in rome and have just visited
the spanish steps you'll find yourself next to one of the fanciest mcdonald's in the world
this golden arches site may not date back as far as the spanish steps but it did open its doors
in 1986 making it the first mcdonald's in rome the unbearable scent of fried food polluting the
air and the idea that the business was adding to the debasement of rome and the westernization of
italian culture did not go down well with romans at the time baby boopie que calza peter what are
you doing speaking italian protests did eventually die down and the facility is now in its fourth
decade of operation imagine a little more affluent olive garden if you're trying to picture what it
looks like fountains sculptures and mosaic walls are among the artistic characteristics
and the tables which are covered with marble a salad buffet chicken cordon bleu sandwich
and fresh pastries are among the upmarket menu offerings even though this mcd's location is
near a popular tourist destination with tens of thousands of tourists each day you shouldn't have
any trouble securing a table the restaurant can accommodate up to 450 people at any given time
paris france mcdonald's in the basement of the louvre we'll have the
mcdonald's has not always been well received in france a group of farmers demolished a
mcdonald's restaurant in southern france in 1999 to protest tariffs imposed on french products and
the importation of hormone-treated cattle meant for mcdonald's burgers from the united states
they demolished the building and carried away the materials spraying
go home on what was left of the construction site however the general view of the golden
arches in france appears to have changed france was mcdonald's most lucrative nation outside
of the united states in 2014 with sales of 4.8 billion dollars the year before franklin grant and
jackson mcdonald's established a location in the louvre museum's subterranean basement in november
2009. while it didn't quite fit in with the mona lisa it was close enough for some to reignite
the anti-american sentiment i'm not against dining in the museum one parisian commented
that mcdonald's is hardly the pinnacle of gourmet and that today it's mcdonald's tomorrow it'll be
cheap clothing stores it's safe to say that even though mcdonald's isn't even close to the quality
of most food found in paris there's something to say about the convenience and familiar flavors
that the mega chain is notorious for the next time you visit paris and you've had your fill
of the famous french cuisine you can always treat yourself to some mcdonald's fries and a big mac
but let's be honest tiring of france's famous restaurants that won't happen ever
ever never we're open 24 7. just tap or click for another great video hit that
