McDonald's has announced it is reopening six of its restaurants in Dublin on May 20th.

The outlets, which will be revealed next week, will open for Drive-Thru customers only from Wednesday week.

Each car will only be allowed to spend a maximum of €30 per order.

McDonald's will also be implementing the following safety measures:

  • Fewer people in the kitchen and service areas, serving a reduced menu over reduced hours;
  • The use of contactless thermometers, with temperatures checked on arrival at work
  • Perspex screens in key locations in the kitchen and service areas;
  • Protective equipment for our people including gloves for customer and courier facing positions and face masks, but not the type needed by healthcare professionals;
  • And additional training on cleanliness practices, including increased frequency of handwashing and extra sanitising of touch points around the restaurant.

CEO of the companies Irish and UK operations Paul Pemroy says "As we get accustomed to the new processes and procedures, we will look to reopen more restaurants, for longer hours and reintroduce more menu items. But only when I am confident we can do so whilst maintaining the new procedures we have introduced for the protection of our people."

Agriculture Minister Michael Creed has given his support for the reopening and is happy to be quoted saying:

"McDonald’s is a valued key purchaser of Irish produce and an employer of a large number of people throughout Ireland. I therefore welcome today’s announcement that McDonald’s restaurants will begin a cautious reopening in Ireland from May 20th  with a small number of restaurants opening as Drive Thru only at first.”
