McDonald's has announced that restaurants in Scotland, and across the UK and Ireland, will shut from 11pm tonight for takeaway as well as dine-in.
The fast-food giant took to its social media accounts to make the announcement saying restaurants will stay closed "while we review and verify any additional enhanced safety measures for these services".
Dine-in was already closed under tier four restrictions in Scotland but walk-in and take away was still happening.
Now just drive-thru, delivery and Click&Serve will remain open.
Click&Serve through the My McDonald's app is available at its drive-thru restaurants.
In a statement, they said: "Following the government announcements, we are pleased to remain open, but with a few changes. We know this is a really difficult time for everyone and we really appreciate your patience and kindness, both with our crew and online."
McDonald's also said that customers can potentially expect longer serving times as they are operating with smaller teams and social distancing in place.
The decision follows announcements by First Minsiter Nicola Sturgeon and Prime Minister Boris Johnson that the UK will stay in lockdown until at least the end of January in Scotland and mid February in England while vaccines are rolled out to protect the elderly and vulnerable.
As of January 5, a new "stay at home" message became a legal requirement across each of Scotland's mainland council areas.
