McDonald’s Fort Scott is open once again for business, following a hiatus from November 13 to December 8, when the drive-through service only was available.
The restaurant is located at Main and 23rd Street, 2224 S. Main.
“McDonald’s Corporation wants to refresh and re-image McDonald’s nationwide,” Michael Durbin, general manager at the Fort Scott McDonald’s said.
Following the renovation, there are some new features.
A station called a kiosk, where customers can self-order and pay at the kiosk with a debit/credit card or pay at the counter has been installed.
USB ports have been installed throughout the restaurant for cell phone and computer use.
New decor in grey and yellow has been installed.
Also new: no more McCafe HappyHour.
The grand-reopening of the store is Friday, Dec. 14 at 8 a.m., when the Fort Scott Chamber of Commerce will have a ribbon-cutting event.
A new food menu item is a mushroom swiss burger or chicken sandwich, Durbin said.
There will be food specials throughout the next week, including on Dec. 14 there will be 69 cent cheeseburgers from 11 a.m. to 7 p.m.
Mark McCoy is the owner and there are currently 60 employees.
