Preston McDonald's in Friargate closes for 5 weeks for refurbishment

McDonald’s has shut one of its Preston restaurants for five weeks while it undergoes refurbishment.

The branch in Friargate shut on Sunday evening and will remain closed until Wednesday, September 18.

It’s understood staff have been redeployed to other McDonald’s in the city, including the branch in Fishergate and drive-thru’s at Deepdale Retail Park and the Capitol Centre in Walton-le-Dale.

Its new look will resemble other recently revamped McDonald’s, such as the Capitol Centre and Deepdale branches which received a makeover last year.
