Wouldn't be allowed here. 30 minute limit on the dinibg rooms. With purchase.
I'm actually going to say that I think designing a restaurant for disastrously unhealthy fast food in a way that makes it look and feel like a playground shouldn't be legal, and I'm happy to see them look as dull and unappealing as possible to young children.
The ongoing health crisis is so severe in no small part because of things like that 1990s picture getting kids addicted to trash. This post feels like someone from the 1970s yearning for the days of Joe Camel. Plain packaging does work.
Edit: I thought Joe Camel was much older than it really is.

Good thing they dont target children like in the past anymore tbh. The flag pole is dystopian af though
Respectfully, I must disagree. I feel like children need a place where they can be free to unwind after their 16-hour factory shifts and maybe grab a beer.
Dystopian? The flag that waved over this?

We used to have the only McDonald's (that I know of) that was in a building designed by Eiffel.
They "modernised" it last year.
Some of that is from white balance making the top picture look warmer, but even accounting for that, it's a tragedy.
Corpo interior designers should be hunted, and theblicenses should fund repairing damage they die.
Wow, which piece of shit did they bribe for that? They completely destroyed the interior of the building. Isn't there any heritage protection?
AFAIK it was part of a larger restoration of the whole building complex (this is the Budapest Nyugati railway station), and the global redesign of McDonalds. They justified it by saying that the architecture is closer to the original - the lower level only became part of it when they built the McDonalds in 1990, before that it was a separate diner for the poors in third class. The furniture is default McDonalds.
The overall restoration on the building at large is not bad per se, but they basically destroyed a symbol of the Hungarian 90s - 00s. This was the place where if you lived in Budapest and got wasted, you could get some nutrition in the city center, and it wasn't full of tourists because they didn't think that the railway station buffet was so good.
BTW the local franchisee is trying to cater more to a "fast casual" crowd rather than the bare minimum, so a McDonalds in Hungary has a menu three times as long as one in the Netherlands for example. All I'm saying is that it was a nice place considering. Sic transit gloria mundi I guess.

From beautiful 19th century architecture to boring modern office lounge. Not everything needs to be updated for current trends.

In addition to moving away from marketing directly to children, the reason a lot of fast foot restaurants are rebranding to look like grey cubes is to make the buildings more generic and therefore more valuable as commercial real estate.
We've all seen the local Mexican restaurant that definitely used to be a Pizza Hut. This is to avoid that.

Hold on there's a McDonalds I remember going to, and I'm trying to think if it was in Scotland or England, but we stopped off there and the fucking place looked near enough like a villain's lair.
I have to know where this is. What resources do you require to find it?
Thanks! I might get a print. Those are cool.
You have set me back financially by at least a month, but thank you.
That is long enough for our plan
We will collapse the human empire by convincing the peasants within it to purchase art from artists until the economy becomes untirely imaginary (as all art is at least somewhat imaginary) and collapses.

Long live the Crowvelution!
That's SO Raven!
When I talk about how much I miss the 90s McDonalds, I'm mostly complaining about the loss of a third space. My parents would go to McDonalds so we had a safe, climate-controlled, indoor play space, and we could spend hours there for the price of something off the dollar menu.
I don't know of anywhere comparable these days. Anything indoors is going to be expensive, you have to get the city to unlock the local hoops, the cops start asking questions if you just want to hang out with friends, and if you have too many friends they make you get a permit to use the public park.

We transitioned from the war on crime to the war on terrorism.
The order needs to be reversed. People don't really read from the bottom up.
