McDonald's in Heckmondwike reopens today
Cars have started queuing outside Heckmondwike's McDonald's as the restaurant's drive-thru reopens to the public today.
McDonald's was one of thousands of retailers to close its doors in March as part of the UK-wide lockdown to slow the spread of coronavirus.
But today, the restaurant on Northgate centre, in the town centre is expecting open drive-thru service to the public 11am onwards.
A spokesperson for McDonald's said they were anticipating "high demand", and would close drive thru lanes if deemed necessary.
In a statement, the chain said: "Social distancing has been introduced in the kitchens and service areas to help create a safe working environment for restaurant teams.
"We're glad to be back but it will look a little different and may take a little longer, so please bear with us.
"We have fewer employees in our kitchens to enable our teams to social distance and work safely
"We will have a limited menu (no breakfast or Shakes for now) and will open for reduced hours (11am-10pm).
"We encourage you to use contactless payment methods and cap your spend at £25.
"We’re delighted to be returning to communities across the UK and Ireland, thank you for your continued support and patience.
"We look forward to seeing you soon."
