McDonald’s is putting the finishing touches on its newest drive-thru restaurant in Coleraine, with the grand opening confirmed for next week.
Located in the Asda car park, the upcoming store will be the American fast-food giant’s second location in the town.
Construction of the single-story, state-of-the-art restaurant began in February, and the site is now nearly complete. Landscaping and parking facilities are in place, with only minor clean-up work remaining. A recruitment campaign has successfully filled around 120 full- and part-time positions, contributing a notable boost to local employment.
Management teams are currently on-site testing operations, while staff are undergoing final training and preparations ahead of opening day. Internal advertising billboards and self-service ordering kiosks are also in motion, as excitement builds for the restaurant’s official launch on Wednesday, May 21.
In a brief statement, a McDonald’s spokesperson told the News Letter: “I can confirm that the new McDonald’s restaurant in Coleraine opens on 21 May. There is nothing else at this stage.”
