McDonald’s Antigua, Guatemala has ditched the usual McDonald’s design for a beautiful courtyard, and incredible views.
The restaurant is in the central highlands of Guatemala – so if you look out you get views of the enormous Agua volcano.
It has a large beautiful cobbled courtyard full of lush green trees, bright flower, and tables with sun umbrellas surrounding a huge fountain.
Some videos on social media even show off live music outside.
You don’t forget it’s a McDonald’s, though, when you spot a huge Ronald McDonald statue on a bench.
It has made an impression with visitors too, one wrote on Tripadvisor : “I guarantee you won’t have seen a McDonald’s like it.”
Another said: “The McDonald’s here is amazing. Because of the city’s historical preservation rules, you won’t know that McDonald’s is there unless you happen to walk by and look inside.”
A third commented: “You can eat some burgers or ice cream with a beautiful view of mountains.”
It even has a swing set integrated into its design which has appeared multiple times on Instagram and TikTok .


McDonald’s knows what they’re doing, as there’s one very quirky restaurant in New Zealand that’s inside a decommissioned DC-3 plane .
On the aircraft-turned fast-food restaurant in Taupō, New Zealand , you have to climb the original plane stairs that lead into the restaurant.
Inside there’s not a lot of room, but 20 diners can sit across 10 tables.
There’s also the cockpit, which has been preserved behind a glass wall.
The outside of the plane has been repainted, and the previous airline name has been replaced with the McDonald’s logo of course.
The tail end of the plane features the classic McDonald’s golden arches and outside, there’s a playground for kids as well.
