10Colonial Mansion McDonald’s – Hyde Park, New York
We begin our top list with the Colonial Mansion McDonald’s, located in Hyde Park, New York.
This impressive building was built as a farmhouse by Joseph Denton and it has been since known as The Denton House.
Until the 1980s, when McDonald’s purchased the property.
But their plans to destroy it and built a new store failed. The building was considered a historical landmark, so McDonald’s had to use it exactly in this form.
9McDonald’s – Tbilisi, Georgia
Georgia is a good country to expand this business.
Fast food chains like Wendy’s and McDonald’s have both established locations here.
At first, Western fast food chains were a threat for the local cuisine, and not to mention, the buildings that will definitely be something you just can’t miss on the street.
However, McDonald’s chose a look that was in keeping with local architecture.
8McDonald’s on Spanish Broadway – Madrid, Spain
We can all agree that this is not your typical McDonald’s. Apparently, the food either.
Reviewers said that you’ll receive real potato wedges instead of fries and the burgers taste like all-beef. The McCafe sells in actual coffee cups.
And here’s something you don’t see everyday. They also serve beer.

It has 2 storeys, and the main restaurant can seat 150 customers. Interesting fact: nearly 75% of the building was recycled or reused in other locations.
The cooking oil was converted into bio-fuel for McDonald’s UK delivery trucks. All we can say now is ‘Good job!’
6McDonald’s in Downtown Hangzhou – Hangzhou, China
This restaurant has the same story as our #10. It had to be used exactly in that form.

You have to admit, it’s quite awesome! This McDonald’s is placed in a historic building dating to 1930.
Before the McDonald’s, the place was called Imperial Cafe, due to the Eagle placed on the facade.
Its interior is full of Art Deco stained glass windows, chandeliers and other decorations that provide the air of the social life of the 1930s.
The restaurant has a few unique menu items, but most part of the food is just as you’d expected from a McDonald’s.
4McDonald’s Drive Thru – Ulsan, South Korea
Located in Ulsa, South Korea, this McDonald’s sure is a dream come true for those who travel a lot.
Yes, this is an unique location and a strange McDonald’s.
Why? Well, for starters, it doesn’t use the typical red and yellow color scheme, as you can see in the image.
Instead, they prefer bright pink and neons.
Second, at the time this restaurant was built, it was very unique to the usual architecture of Ulsan. The structure seems like a butterfly, a moth to be more specific. Not quite the McDonald’s we know.

The DC-3 was originally made for the U.S. Army Force.
