McDonald’s branch opens at Lincolnshire Showground Services on A15 in Lincoln

A new McDonald’s restaurant has opened its doors today (Wednesday, October 23).

The new restaurant has opened at the Lincolnshire Showground Services on the A15 in Lincoln, creating 95 jobs.

Following significant investment from franchisee James Thompson, the restaurant is open for dine-in, takeaway, Drive-Thru, Click and Serve and home delivery. Opening hours will be 24 hours, seven days a week.

The new 25-seater restaurant will create around 95 new full and part-time jobs for the local community and will feature table service, self-ordering kiosks and a Drive Thru with Smart Digital Drive Thru menu boards.

James, who now owns and operates six McDonald’s restaurants in Lincolnshire, said: “We are delighted to be opening another brand-new McDonald’s restaurant in Lincolnshire and can’t wait to see local customers, both new and old, enjoy our services on offer.

“People are at the heart of our business, and we look forward to welcoming new employees with the jobs our restaurant will create. We’re committed to investing in opportunities for a mix of all ages, life stages and backgrounds, promoting flexibility and equality.

“It’s particularly exciting to be opening this new restaurant as McDonald’s celebrates its 50th year in the UK.”

The branch also has roof mounted solar panels, a modular building so it can be reused in the future and timber window frames and partition walls, replacing the traditional aluminium and steel frames.
