Scotland misses out as McDonald's announces 33 UK restaurant openings
The chain confirmed the opening of more than 30 restaurants for drive thru last week and confirmed that customers would notice several changes when visiting such as a spending limit of £25 per car.
As there will be smaller teams working in the restaurants to adhere to social distancing measures, service is expected to be slower and queues are likely.
