McDonald's at Dalton Park launches McDelivery – here’s how to order from home via Uber Eats

The McDonald’s at the Dalton Park Outlet is now offering a McDelivery service to allow customers to order from the comfort of their own home as the coronavirus pandemic continues across the region.

Customers living within 1.5 miles of the restaurant can order their favourite McDonald’s menu items straight to their door via the Uber Eats app.

Local franchisee Jasper Maudsley, who owns and operates the Dalton Park Outlet restaurant, commented: “My team and I are delighted to be bringing McDelivery to Seaham.

"Even before lockdown we were always working towards making our customers’ dining experience easier and more convenient – including self-service kiosks and table service.

"Now we’re excited to be able to offer McDelivery and give our customers another option to enjoy their McDonald’s favourites, contact free, from the comfort of their own home.”

A number of McDonald’s restaurants across the region have seen employees test positive for coronavirus this month but the fast-food giant assures customers that strict sanitary and social-distancing protocols are being followed.

All Uber Eats couriers will be wearing masks to comply with new Government policy and a series of safety measures are in place at the restaurant to help protect customers, employees and couriers.

Customers are also encouraged to use contactless payment methods as much as possible.

McDelivery will feature McDonald’s breakfast, lunch and dinner options and will be available within 1.5 miles of the Dalton Park restaurant during opening hours (7am to 10pm).

To order McDelivery, download the Uber Eats app or order online at www.ubereats.com. Then you enter the address where you’d like your meal delivered and search for your nearest participating McDonald’s location.

To place your order, pick the items you want from the online menu and specify if you would like delivery as soon as possible or scheduled for a later time.

You can add notes to customise your meal and, like Uber, the order is charged to your card on file. You can follow the progress of your delivery and get updates on the preparation of your order live using the Uber Eats app.
