McDonald's has reopened after closing for refurbishment.

The fast food chain in Eastgate Shopping Centre, Basildon, closed briefly but has now re-opened after new technology was installed.

Eastgate centre manager Ian Clark said: “It’s fantastic to see McDonald’s open its tills to customers again today following a successful refurbishment.

"The new store fit-out is modern and stylish bringing the store up-to-date with new technology in the self-order kiosks. "McDonald’s has always been popular with our shoppers and this modern look will really appeal to them.”
