Customers will be able to place orders at the table, using the My McDonald’s app or through the self-order kiosk or till. The store staff will bring the food to minimise contagion risks with takeaway customers and delivery couriers.
The locations will also deploy sanitisers and manage the number of customers inside the restaurants.
Furthermore, all customers who choose to dine-in will be required to provide personal details to support the government’s contact tracing programmes.
The restaurant tables will have a sticker, displaying a QR code and URL, which will take the customers to the specific website, where they can fill in the details.
