McDonald’s truck in Budapest

A McDonald’s truck has opened near the always-crowded Nyugati railway station in Budapest, the fast food chain said in a statement on Wednesday.

The announcement revealed that the new outlet is needed to serve those craving cheeseburgers and Big Macs while the Nyugati Square restaurant is closed for renovation. The McDonald’s in Nyugati Square opened 34 years ago, in 1990, and is considered one of the most beautiful McDonald’s restaurants in the world. It is one of the last stages of the Hungarian restaurant chain’s renovation programme and is expected to be completed in six months at a cost of more than HUF 1.5 billion, Világgazdaság writes.

The doors are expected to open in the autumn.
