McDonald's restaurants will close to dine-in customers in England from Thursday as a second national lockdown begins.

McDonald's has confirmed it will continue serving customers throughout the new lockdown via takeaway. Chief executive Paul Pomroy said: "At 00:01am on Thursday we will close our dining areas across England but, in line with Government guidance, we will remain open for takeaway, Drive Thru and McDelivery via Uber Eats and Just Eat."
He added that after the first lockdown McDonald's made the following changes to keep customers and employees safe:
Fewer people working on each shift, and introducing new measures including additional screens in kitchens and service areas to provide a safer environment to help with social distancing
Serving a reduced menu and some restaurants running reduced hours
Hand washing at least every 30 minutes and providing sanitiser for teams, delivery partners and customers
Asking customers to respect social distancing guidelines and to wear face coverings when entering the restaurant, using floor markings and signposting routes for customers and delivery partners
Cleaning surfaces and equipment, including self-order screens and card readers, even more regularly
Providing teams with additional protective equipment including face coverings, and using contactless thermometers to check their temperature
Pomroy added: "We remain committed to enabling our people to come to work safely whilst we continue to serve the communities in which we operate.
"In some restaurants, our operating hours and services may vary. As always, we will keep you updated via the My McDonald's App and our website."
