McDonald's are today opening 27 of their Irish restaurants for diners after the success of their drive-thru reopenings.
The restaurants will reopen dine-in service areas with a range of new safety measures which will see customers served via table service only.
Social distancing measures will also be in place, only allowing a certain number of diners inside at any one time, whilst ensuring couriers and takeaway customers can still visit to collect off-premise food.
Customers will notice all the following measures next time they pay a visit to the fast-food restaurant;
- Hand sanitiser at the entrance to every restaurant for couriers and dine-in and takeaway customers
- Clear floor-markings and signposting inside and outside restaurants to help enable social distancing
- Protective equipment including Perspex screens, face coverings and for customer and courier facing employees, gloves
- Touchpoints including self-order screens, card readers and doors will be sanitised at least every 30 minutes
- Perspex screens have been installed in the kitchens, service areas and Drive-thru windows and additional protective equipment has been provided for restaurant teams, including disposable gloves for people in customer and courier facing positions and face coverings
- Fewer people on each shift
- Customers are asked to use contactless payment methods as much as possible
