at the mcdonald's in barstow station you can do just that barstow california is positioned halfway
between los angeles and las vegas and serves as a significant transportation hub for cars buses
and yes trains as a result when fred rosenberg a local businessman established a truck stop on
the outskirts of town in the 1970s he planned the plaza to resemble a train station the first
tenant of barstow station was mcdonald's which rosenberg also controlled according to folklore
he won the mcdonald's in a card game with ray kroc the interesting restaurant is housed in
a historic railway station which hasn't been utilized for its original purpose since 1955.

for a restaurant called the glass house with windows for viewing the automobiles below i'll

mcdonald's is the largest in oklahoma and was once the largest in the world a convenience store gift
shop artwork sculptures and instructional flat screens have been added to the structure which
was remodeled a few years ago the outer arches used to be painted yellow to resemble the iconic
mcdonald's golden arches indicating what was inside to all passing motorists the arches were
repainted a neutral hue during the refurbishment most likely because mcdonald's is no longer the
only restaurant in the center today there's also a subway montana's national park mcdonald's come
on let's go from mcdonald's yes mcdonald's is certainly not the first thing that comes to
mind when you think about national parks and the great outdoors if you visit yellowstone national
park in montana though all of that will change a rather strange looking mcdonald's is just outside
the park's west entrance a stone's throw from the montana wyoming border and it does its best
to blend in with its outdoorsy environment the structure resembles a massive rustic log cabin
complete with bear sculptures and photos a wooden mcdonald's sign and a please do not feed the
wildlife sign that you almost surely won't see at any other mcdonald's location while the atmosphere
of the restaurant may be enticing the menu prices may not be bring me an apple pie this mcdonald's
according to multiple customers reviews is rather pricey as one reviewer put it this was the world's
most expensive mcdonald's at least it appears to be so it looks like you pay extra for the view
arizona's turquoise mcdonald's go all out for the kick in tex max stack available until the 12th
of june you'll adore the mcdonald's in sedona arizona if you like southwestern flair instead
of the customary golden arches this location's building is adorned with turquoise flashes of
color mcdonald's did not choose to do this their hands were forced to do so sedona is surrounded by
gorgeous scenery of mountains red rock canyons and pine woods in the heart of arizona fancy it as a
result the city has enacted laws to ensure that structures do not obstruct or detract from the
natural beauty of the area the city of sedona sought the mcdonald's outlet with its bright
yellow m would be out of place when it was built in 1993 mcdonald's decided to repaint all of the
restaurant's arches in a gentle turquoise blue to better blend in with the surrounding environment
if you're driving through arizona with a mcdonald's craving you'll probably find the
difference of color refreshing even if it looks odd to the eyes your stomach will be satisfied new
york's historical landmark mcdonald's i fancy the new york stack what's that two beef burgers long
island's lovely suburban village of new hyde park is home to what many have dubbed the most gorgeous
mcdonald's in the country built in the 1700s the restaurant is housed in a georgian-style mansion
the structure was once a prominent family's farmhouse but it was abandoned and fell into
disrepair after serving numerous other purposes over the next two centuries the land was purchased
by mcdonald's in the mid-1980s however people were opposed to the historic structure being demolished
to make room for a fast food establishment they were successful in their appeal to obtain
historical landmark designation for the restaurant mcdonald's agreed to renovate the two-story
structure and keep its 1920s style facade which includes white pillars and painted shutters
during the planning phase the location was designed to fit in with the surroundings in
which it was being developed and has since taken on a very distinct and beautiful 1920s style that
attracts customers from all over the country the location first opened its doors in 1991 and has
remained operational ever since so if you're looking to visit an upscale classy and vintage
mcdonald's the new hyde park location is a must georgia's green mcdonald's it's well documented
where is it documented commercials commercials are not documentation yes they are mcdonald's
was founded in the 1940s long before the terms climate change and green technology were coined
to say the least times have changed since then and environmental issues have taken center stage
as a result we have structures such as the mcdonald's in savannah george's abercorn common
the environmentally friendly restaurant has over 1 000 square feet of windows an energy reflective
roof of course painted yellow to stay on brand and was constructed using mostly recyclable materials
gary dodd the franchise owner has stated that it's a joy to own the world's greenest mcdonald's
and that they save a large amount of money on energy bills due to the unique construction
of the building and it's delicious the savannah store is 20 to 30 percent more energy efficient
than a normal mcdonald's it makes sense to go green for a restaurant like this because
not only does it save money for the franchise but also allows the workers and customers to enjoy
a more comfortable and eco-friendly fast food experience maine's mansion mcdonald's not bad
freeport is one of maine's most popular tourist destinations located on the
atlantic coast it's filled with stunning ocean vistas seafood restaurants and outlet stores
but it's the fact that practically every property has a quaint colonial design that makes this town
so alluring locals were concerned when mcdonald's wanted to open up a restaurant in freeport's
historic 150 year old gore house establishment in the 1980s so mcdonald's decided to collaborate
with the community since their anxiety was less about a fast food restaurant coming into town
and more about the sights of gigantic arches dominating a classical victorian style mansion
that looks really good eyes closed please sorry mcdonald's had never done something
like this before and went about the process in a true collaborative way getting feedback from
town officials before starting any construction and allowing various changes to their normal
building plans as a result a archless mcdonald's has emerged devoid of the normal overt branding
and advertising the structure is a mix of old and new it boasts colonial style buildings including
a fireplace and is decorated with historic images of freeport but it also has modern amenities such
as touch screen ordering kiosks and of course a drive-through new disney world mcdonald's
the most magical day ever it's walt disney world's 50th anniversary celebration
in 2021 disney world celebrated its 50th anniversary and the famous amusement park couldn't
let the occasion pass without introducing a new cutting-edge environmentally friendly mcdonald's
on its premises the restaurant is a perfect fit for its mystical setting as it looks and
operates differently than any other mcdonald's in the world the disney world restaurant is the
first mcdonald's to be net zero which means it generates as much energy as it consumes
you thinking what i'm thinking more than 23 000 square feet of solar panels natural ventilation
rain water redirecting surfaces led lighting low flow plumbing fittings and a large living
green wall are among the architectural and engineering features that make this
achievement possible don't forget about the bicycles either guests can burn some calories
after a big meal outside on stationary bicycles the energy generated by these bikes is fed back
into the restaurant where it is used to light the space and charge customers phones mcdonald's even
intends to use the property as a test outlet for future sustainability ideas mcdonald's global
headquarters this week get a taste of chicago with the chicago supreme mcdonald's relocated
its headquarters to chicago in 2018 after nearly 50 years in the suburbs of the windy city
does plains specifically the nine-story structure has a 700-seat conference center a work cafe a
fitness center and multiple outdoor terraces however those are only available to the staff
the rest of us may have a good time on the main floor which is home to a one-of-a-kind mcdonald's
open to the public the experience of the future restaurant spans over 6 000 square feet offers
a modern design self-order kiosks table service mobile ordering and payment outdoor seating and
an australian mc cafe with skilled baristas all of this sets the chicago location apart from others
across the world everybody stay calm but it's the restaurant's food that sticks out the most with a
rotating menu of mcdonald's foods from around the world the global headquarters eatery maintains
true to its name hong kong's mixed spicy chicken sandwich australia's cheese and bacon loaded
fries france's matzo salad canada's poutine and the netherlands angus maestro burger are among
the menu offerings the restaurant even includes a global map with golden arches that light up when
a country's cuisine is on the menu but don't worry iconic mcdonald's dishes like the big mac quarter
pounder with cheese and chicken mcnuggets are also available the oldest mcdonald's in the world
burger crossing you may not have heard of downing california but the town located just
outside of los angeles is the home to the world's oldest mcdonald's restaurant this was the fourth
mcdonald's to open in the united states but its three predecessors have since closed making the
downey site the longest surviving mcdonald's it is without a doubt a throwback to a bygone era ray
kroc designed the style and feel of the mcdonald's we've all come to know and love the downy location
was never required to undertake the branding alterations that have become synonymous with
mickey d's since the owners signed a franchise agreement with the founding mcdonald's brothers
rather than croc you won't find the famed golden arches here instead you'll find one massive narrow
arch welcome to mcdonald's there isn't a ronald mcdonald or a play place anywhere to be found in
fact this burger business would be unrecognizable if it weren't for the mcdonald's moniker this
restaurant was later purchased by the company in 1990 but it has kept its old school feel there's
also a small museum on the premises containing historical items the menu is the only thing
about this mcdonald's that is modern with one tiny exception despite the fact that mcdonald's began
baking their apple pies in 1992 the downy location continues to deep fry these wonderful pastries
