McDonald's closes Nottinghamshire restaurants to walk-in customers under latest lockdown rules

McDonald's has closed all Nottinghamshire restaurants to walk-in customers under the latest lockdown rules.

The only way to get a Big Mac and fries now is to use the drive-thru or home delivery service.

Delivery is available from all of the city centre restaurants in Angel Row, Victoria Centre and Clumber Street. However the branch at Exchange Walk is closed.

Click and serve is available from the Victoria Centre branch. Customers can order using the app and staff bring the food to them outside.

Drive-thrus in locations including Clifton, Chilwell, Bulwell and Arnold, remain open.

Paul Pomroy, Chief Executive Officer, McDonald's UK and Ireland, said: "We are starting 2021 with an update on Covid-19 and the further tightening of restrictions across the country.

"Throughout this crisis we have always prioritised the safety of our employees and customers. And so, in light of the recent announcements from the government and public health authorities, we have decided to temporarily change the ways in which we will be operating in the UK and Ireland.

Mr Pomroy said: "Our restaurants are unique, and we want to take some time to review the set up at each restaurant before we offer takeaway during these latest restrictions.

"Therefore, we have voluntarily decided to introduce this temporary change whilst we work with third-party experts to review and verify any additional enhanced safety measures for our walk-in takeaway services.

"We will continually review this decision and will only re-open for takeaway with third-party verification of any additional enhanced safety measures."
