McDonald’s newest restaurant is making a bold statement about the future of the chain.
On Thursday, McDonald’s opened a new flagship restaurant in Chicago. It’s a glassy, 19,000-square-foot building that looks more like an Apple Store than a fast-food restaurant — and that’s exactly what the company intended.
“We are proud to open the doors to this flagship restaurant, which symbolises how we are building a better McDonald’s for our customers and the communities where they live,” McDonald’s President and CEO Steve Easterbrook said in a statement.
