McDonald’s fully-automated location with no human employees sparks debate

A test location for a fully-automated McDonald’s location in Fort Worth, Texas has drawn a variety of reactions from viewers after being shared to TikTok by a food blog.

Posted by user @foodiemunster, the video shows a new McDonald’s location that uses automated food ordering and a cashless payment system, with employees in the kitchen cooking the orders. According to The Street, the location is about half the size of a regular McDonald’s location and has no area for indoor dining.

Some viewers love the idea, with many complaining about the attitude of employees when they do go to order at the counter.

“Finally, my order will be quick and accurate,” one commenter wrote.

“Awesome,” another commenter wrote. “No more attitude at the counter.”

“Well the people that work there act like they don’t wanna be there,” a commenter wrote. “This solves that problem!”

The McDonalds around here have a kiosk you can order from to skip the counter.

Then you can either go up to the counter to pick up your order or bring a little number flag to a table and they’ll bring it to you.

A McDonald’s here put a number on each table and let you order through your smartphone. At the end of placing that order, you can choose to pick up (curb side or in store) or have it delivered to a table with a particular number. Works very well. You can still place order in person at the counter or through drive-thru, so the traditionalists are still accommodated.
