McDonald's has released the full list of restaurants reopened for walk-in customers first.
The fast-food chain closed in March due to the coronavirus crisis and recently began to reopen restaurants in the UK for drive thru and McDelivery only.
However, from today 11 pilot restaurants reopened at 11am for takeaway.
The branches are all Roadchef service stations and will look a little different.
Firstly, McDonald's will be serving a limited menu over reduced hours.
It will also introduce Perspex screens, floor markings, gloves for customer facing employees and face coverings in addition to the safety measures already in place at restaurants open for drive thru and McDelivery.

McDonald's are preparing to reopen more restaurants for takeaway and will update customers in the next weeks.
McDonald's has listed the following safety measures at restaurants offering takeaway
- We will provide clear signposting and floor-markings to create a one-way system around our restaurants for you and our delivery partner couriers.
- We will only allow certain numbers of people inside our restaurants at a time to help you and us adhere to social distancing – this will vary depending upon the restaurant size and lay-out.
- When you visit us for takeaway, we will welcome you inside when a space becomes available, and we'll ask you to sanitise your hands at the cleaning stations we are introducing in all restaurants.
- We will have fewer self-order screens switched on and will sanitise those in use at least every 30 minutes. You can also order via the My McDonald's app.
- If you can visit alone to collect your food, please do so, however we know this isn't always possible – children are of course still welcome, but for now we'll be putting away our crayons and colouring sheets and keeping the play areas and digital play areas closed.
- Our seating areas, customer toilets and lifts will remain closed.
- As our dining areas will not be open, our recycling points will also remain closed but most of our packaging can be recycled so please do dispose of it responsibly and recycle wherever possible when you get home.
- To help protect our employees and other customers, we ask you not to visit if you feel unwell.
