“We plan to reopen all our drive-thrus by early June.”
The company is also bringing in a £25 order cap.
“We will have a £25 order cap as we adjust to smaller teams and social distancing in our kitchens,” the spokesperson explained.
The news comes as McDonald's – which closed all all its UK outlets on March 23 amid the lockdown – prepares to open 15 English restaurants for delivery tomorrow.
