This will also be the first McDonald's outlet in the city operating 24x7, the company said in a statement.The airport outlet spans over 3,000 sqft, a McCafe, a dine-in area, and a takeaway counter.
There is also a dedicated drive-thru lane and a customer ordering display board for customers to seamlessly order and enjoy their meals on-the-go. It also has four self ordering kiosks to help customers save time.
With this addition, McDonald's now has three joints in T2.
Saurabh Kalra, the managing director of McDonald's India (W&S), said, the drive-thru outlet that combines convenience, speed, and quality, aims to make customers' journeys more enjoyable and stress-free.
He also said they are looking at expanding their presence in the Mumbai Metropolitan Region, and also into more western and southern markets.
