They have implemented the self-service machines!!!!!!
Super happy about it because
1) I haven't seen it in Toronto yet and
2) IT'S AWESOMEEEE!!
Super smooth and fast technology. I cut the line by so much because it is past 3PM, so all the kids are out and ofc, in McDonald's. I didn't have to wait behind 6 people because the machine was available :D .
You choose what you want, and you're able to see your "cart" at the bottom of the large screen. Options to pay by cards or at the counter. The machine prints out your receipt, which you should hold onto incase they want to verify that it is your order.
I only bought an ice cream (because the weather lately has been beautiful!! and because I'm in a McDs ice cream phase right now). So I skipped past the crowds once again. And service for my ice cream was fast - which what I had expected.
This McDs is 24 hours, has multiple tvs, a fireplace which emits heat in the winter, and quite an ample space if I do say so myself. Their drinks and condiments are self-service so you can sit here and refill your drink non-stop basically...
In the morning, most old people come here to read newspapers and chill with coffees. Whereas after 3PM, high school kids fill the spots. I used to come here at night quite a bit as it was the only 24hr McDs here.
I'm happy at the self-service machine!! So exciting, and this is the first time I'm seeing it. I wish the Eaton Centre had this but they might get a bit crazy on the orders.....
