A McDonald's restaurant has reopened with a new design with no front counter.

The fast food restaurant in High Road, Wood Green, which is owned and operated by franchisee Harry Rashid, has reopened following a ‘Convenience of the Future’ redesign to offer a better experience for all.

McDonalds has revamped its programme to cater for consumers who it says are increasingly looking for greater speed, efficiency and choice when ordering their food.

The revamped restaurant includes a separate space for customers and couriers who are delivering takeaway food.

The old front counter has gone, which McDonald's says means more space for customers to enjoy their meal, less congestion around touchscreens, and shorter queues.

A new kitchen design includes a bigger order assembly area and dedicated areas to prepare dine-in orders, which enables staff to serve more quickly, efficiently, and accurately than before.

A dedicated courier waiting area and entrance allows crew to better accommodate delivery firms' needs, alongside reducing congestion in the dining area to create a more relaxing environment for customers.

With staff in mind, improved break spaces and redesigned rooms create a more relaxing and comfortable space for crew to take breaks.

Mr Rashid, who owns and operates five McDonald’s restaurants in North London, said: “I’m proud to reinvest in our Wood Green restaurant - especially as McDonald’s celebrates its 50th anniversary in the UK this year.

"The dining area is more contemporary, and we now have separate facilities for our dine-in customers and our couriers leading to a better experience for everyone.

"It’s exciting to see the fresh new look and feel of our Wood Green restaurant and I’m confident the changes will not only benefit our customers but also our staff as they will help make their jobs a little easier.”
