The restaurant at Sherwood Oaks Business Park, on Oak Leaf Close, welcomed its first customers this morning (Wednesday).
Bosses say its opening follows ‘significant investment’ from franchisee Jacqui Moore – who already employs more than 450 people at her five restaurants across Nottinghamshire and Derbyshire, including the West Gate branch in Mansfield town centre.

“My team and I are excited to be safely opening a brand-new McDonald’s restaurant in Mansfield,” said Jacqui.
"We’re looking forward to seeing our customers enjoy our services on offer, including takeaway and drive-thru.
"We’d also like to thank our customers in advance for their support and patience as we navigate and adapt to new, evolving restrictions and different ways of working.”
