McDonald’s

About

This McDonald’s in Central Square, Cambridge, is a branch of the global fast food chain, and its directory listing describes it as newly redesigned. Like other McDonald’s restaurants, it serves the chain’s familiar menu of Big Macs, Quarter Pounders, Chicken McNuggets, french fries and breakfast items such as the Egg McMuffin, along with McCafe coffee drinks. Central Square sits on Massachusetts Avenue between Harvard Square and MIT.

McDonald’s traces its start to a single restaurant opened by brothers Richard and Maurice McDonald in San Bernardino, California, in 1940. Ray Kroc later franchised the concept and built it into a global company that now has tens of thousands of restaurants in more than 100 countries. Locations, including franchised ones, follow a standardized menu and service model, so the Central Square restaurant offers the familiar McDonald’s experience.
