Seasonal McDonald's

Old Forge, NY is the home of an unusual McDonald's. "Why?" you ask. "Design? Service? Menu?"

No, no, and no. It is unusual because it is open seasonally. We hear that it could be due to the fact that the resort community shrinks in the winter, or even that they can't find help at that time of the year.

We posted on the Old Forge McDonald's previously, but now we are able to offer up two distinctly different images of the same store. As you can see, this place is socked in until the next Spring thaw.

Do you know of any other seasonal McDonald's? If so, let us know.

Seasonal McDonald's restaurants opened at Wasaga Beach, Ontario and at Montreal's La Ronde amusement park.

McDonald's has a seasonal operation in Atlantida, Uruguay. In late November the tables appear and the kiosks are opened for a rather interesting outdoor-designed store. They even bring in diesel generators to provide it with some of the power. They close up at the end of January.

Any other time of the year, you just see the closed up buildings.

In 2006, this was the location of my LAST visit to ANY McDonald's. Gave up Burger King the same summer also.
