Normally we get our food on the road to go when we stop at mcdonald's because we don't have our kids with us and we do not want to deal with noisy kids playing on mcdonald's toys or screaming to go play on them. But this mcdonald's was cool cause no noisy kids. Nice music playing and a gourmet cofee and expressos. I loved it.

You are right when you said that you don’t see Ronald McDonalds likeness anymore (never would have thought that until you said it) and the colors aren’t that the kid like yellow and red too. The menu is definitely more adult like. They are definitely wanting to grab some of those Starbucks clientele and make going to McDees more hip and trendy rather than just a place to bring your kids. @ANO You’ll be pleasantly surprised to see how classy a McDee restaurant can be! @ Lee

Yes, totally different -- everything here is supersized and overboard. I do like the free refills though -- not sure why they don't do that there. Personally, I thought Burger Kings was better there than McDonald's (it's the opposite for me here). @ Catherine

But seriously - you have better McDonalds restaurants in the US to begin with than we have here in the UK. Here, we don't get free drinks refills, and we don't even get to help ourselves to ketchup etc - we have to ask at the counter! Sounds great Mel.
