Self-service terminals at McDonald's: review and testing. McDonald's Auto (MakAuto): menu, addresses, opening hours Guest's dissatisfaction grows when he has to wait, not understanding the reason and possible duration of his wait

What is McDonald's Auto? These are the same establishments of the network, like any other restaurants in most cases, but which, in addition, are aimed at customer service, by car. Windows with a similar distribution are called MakAuto. Although this is also a controversial statement, there are also names like MacDrive and even AutoDistribute (the latter is more slang for McDonald's employees).

Most of the MakAuto operating in Russia are located within the Moscow region, they operate, as a rule, around the clock with a short break for shift changes from 05:00 to 06:00, but more on opening hours later. To date, more than 43 AutoDistributions have been opened in Moscow, not counting the regions where there are still several dozen.

Today we’ll talk about how such a service works, how to use it, are there any differences in the proposed menu or not?

How to use MacAuto?

How to use MacAuto?

This question is often asked by newcomers who are just getting acquainted with the offers from McDonald's. In fact, there is nothing complicated in using a convenient service.

The procedure for buying a dish is arranged as follows:

• First, a person drives up to the order counter, where, in a conversation with the operator or through a touch screen, he selects the desired items from the menu (as a rule, information stands with the most popular dishes are also located near the counters).
• The operator accepts the order and invites the customer to proceed to the next counter.
• As a rule, while a person overcomes several meters, his order is prepared and sorted, and when approaching the next window, all that remains is to pay.
• There are several options, convenient cashless payment or cash payment, whatever you want.
• Further, the distribution employee issues a packed order and a check, after which the client follows to the exit.

As you can see, there is nothing complicated, sometimes it is much faster to get an order by car than in a queue in the restaurant hall itself.

If there are difficulties, support staff is always ready to listen and answer the question.

McAuto menu: what's the difference?

The menu at McDonald's practically does not differ, not only depending on the form of service, but even in different countries, the difference in the assortment is the most minimal. The main difference in the menu is the cost of dishes, it can vary depending on the locality.

Otherwise, McDonald's Auto customers can count on the same positions:

• McBreakfast.
• Happy sweet.
• Sandwiches.
• Salads.
• Desserts.
• Potato.
• Beverages.
• Sauces.
• Tea and coffee.

MakAuto Addresses

How to find the nearest McDonald's restaurant aimed at serving customers by car?

On the official website of the network there is a special section - “Addresses or Restaurants”, there it contains complete information about what kind of establishment the institution is for serving cars or visitors in the hall, and possibly two in one.

For example, by setting the filter so that it shows only McDonald's Auto on the map in Moscow, you will receive information about more than 40 car service cafes.

Mac Auto working hours

If we talk about the regions, then the work of the Mac Auto service is usually limited there from 07:00 to 00:00 on weekdays and weekends, while in Moscow most of the Mac Auto “points” operate around the clock. The only requirement is a technical break of one hour, often between 05:00 and 06:00 hours.

In any case, you can find out how the restaurant you are interested in works, its working hours can be found there, in the "Restaurants" section, by clicking on the desired institution.

PRINCIPLES

ON MAKAVTO

AN EXERCISE

Under the condition of a constant flow of cars, please calculate
MakAuto turnover for a month during peak hours, which we
we get when accelerating MakAuto by 5 seconds and reducing the time
service, for example, from 125 sec. up to 120 sec.
Initial data for the month

125

310
Bandwidth
(peak hours 13-21)
70

AN EXERCISE

We consider the potential for peak hours from 13 to 21 (for a period of 8 hours). In our
case: 125 sec. - 120 sec. = 5 sec. We service each car faster by 5
sec.
The capacity of the restaurant is an average of 70 cars per hour. Those. serving
each car for 5 seconds. faster, we save: 70 x 5 sec. = 350 sec. in hour
350 sec. / 120 sec. = 2.9, i.e. by working 5 seconds faster, we can keep up
serve 3 more cars with such a flow of cars and get
throughput 73 cars
During peak hours, we can additionally serve: 3 (cars) x 8 (hours) =
24 cars
24 cars per day x 30 days x 310 rubles average check = 223,200 rubles.

Thanks to the "MakAuto" service offered by the McDonald's fast food restaurant, every motorist can order a delicious burger without getting out of the car. In the capital of the Russian Federation, as in other large cities, there is also MakAvto. In this article, you will learn the addresses of "MakAvto" in Moscow, as well as interesting information about "fast food while driving."

History of McDonald's

The McDonald's fast food restaurant was founded in 1940 in San Bernandino, California. It is worth noting that the first restaurant has been preserved and still accepts people who want to have a tasty meal. Also, if you're there, check out the McDonald's Museum, which features a mock-up of the restaurant, the first cooking equipment, and employee clothing. Even old photographs have been preserved.

At the very beginning of work, McDonald's offered a barbecue. But since 1948, the McDonald brothers have introduced hamburgers that were cheap - only 15 cents. If you pay a penny, then along with the sandwich you will get a glass of juice. America's car enthusiasts have fallen in love with this place, preferring to take their hamburgers with them and enjoy them on the road.

Soon the founders of the cafe realized that barbecues were no longer relevant, so the decision was made to abandon them. Refused as well from the waiters. Now hamburgers were prepared on the principle of a conveyor, and workers at the counter served visitors. That's where the orders were placed.

Some time later, the first McDonald's appeared in Canada. The restaurant appeared in Russia in 1990. For Soviet citizens, the opening was a grandiose holiday: people stood in lines for an hour. On that day, a record was set - thirty thousand visitors in one day!

How did "MakAuto" come about?

For the first time "MakAuto" appeared in the city of Sierra Vista, Arizona, in 1975. Such a service system allowed to increase the profit of the McDonald's restaurant by one and a half times. Of course, because of the speed of service, car fast food has been gaining momentum every year.

In Russia, "MakAvto" appeared in the 90s. For the post-Soviet society, the opening of such a fast food cafe was an innovation. No one could have thought that in Russia every motorist can taste an American burger in a domestic car.

At the moment there is a program of re-equipment "MakAvto". In many cities, when ordering, three windows work instead of two. In the near future, it is planned to launch an application for smartphones, with which you can order food from the other side of the city. This is convenient, customers do not even have to get up from the couch and go outside. There are such McDonald's restaurants in Moscow!

What is MacAuto?

"McDonald's McAuto" is specially designed for car drivers. It is known that many people are always in a hurry, so even for breakfast, which includes scrambled eggs and sausage, there is no time left. "MakAuto" allows people to have breakfast or lunch without leaving the car. You don't even have to stand in a long line at the cash desk and look for a seat in a crowded room. When ordering food at MakAuto, you get rid of one problem inherent in any fast food restaurant - noise. It is known to reduce appetite, which is why many doctors recommend enjoying food in silence.

The varied menu in "MakAvto" will also please! Eating a Big Tasty hamburger while sitting in the passenger seat on a long trip - road romance! These unique emotions are offered by "MakAvto" to its customers. Fortunately, if you know the addresses of "MakAvto" in Moscow, which will be presented below, you can enjoy a burger at any time.

How does McAuto work?

Making an order in "MakAuto" is easy! A speaker used by a McDonald's employee to communicate with a customer turns on when a car approaches. In front of the visitor's car, the "MakAuto" menu is displayed, according to which he chooses a dish. After that, he needs to drive to the window to pay for the order. Once the food is cooked, you need to drive to the second window, where the client receives the cooked dish in a paper bag. Also, the visitor can order drinks provided in the menu: coffee, tea, juice, mineral water.

Conclusion

McDonald's is the first restaurant to create an original service concept. As it was written above, waiters do not work here, but visitors order on their own, at the counter. Chefs prepare food in conveyor mode. Here are some important points you need to know:

• McDonald's was founded in the middle of the twentieth century. Surprisingly, the fast food chain is still relevant today.
• "MakAuto" allows you to order food directly from the car. It's convenient and easy!
• The article presented the addresses of MakAvato in Moscow. You can check them out above.
• The main advantage of "MakAuto" is that you can visit it at any time of the day: late at night and early in the morning!
• Thanks to the MakAuto service, you can eat in your own environment, away from the noise.

As the saying goes, "You are what you eat"! The menu of "McDonald's" presents healthy dishes prepared on the basis of chicken breast and fresh vegetables. For example, this is "Caesar Roll". Fish lovers will love the "File-o-fish" or "Fish Roll". And possible burgers are presented with both beef and chicken components. Enjoy your meal!

A few months ago, we reported that self-service terminals appeared in the Kiev McDonald’s on Osokorki. Soon, such terminals were also installed in the institution on Levoberezhnaya. It was there that our special correspondent tested the new devices.

First of all, it should be noted that self-service terminals at McDonald's are double, you can work with them from both sides at the same time. Thus, 4 people can use them at once, independently of each other (one terminal temporarily did not accept orders that day, however, there was a manager in the hall who could accept an order using a regular tablet).

The terminal menu is presented in three languages, and for people with disabilities there is an opportunity to lower the menu below. It may also be helpful for children.

You can pay for the order after placing it at the checkout (by card or in cash), but it is more convenient to do it directly at the terminal using a contactless payment card. This option will be discussed further.

Working with the terminal raises no questions, the menu is simple and clear, and the screen instantly responds to pressing.

For work, a MasterCard PayPass contactless card was used, which made it possible to speed up the ordering process even more. By the way, you can pick up your order at a specially designated window - you don’t have to stand in a general queue. I am glad that the company thought about such seemingly trifles.

In the process of making a payment, there were slight inconveniences caused by the fact that it can be problematic for a tall person to accurately hit the bank terminal with a card from below, at an angle. However, at the same time, this location of the POS-terminal is more convenient for people with limited mobility (for example, in wheelchairs). So the issue is debatable.

According to the press service of McDonald’s Ukraine, on the first day of operation of the terminals in the restaurant on Osokorky metro station, about 15% of orders were accepted through them. The indicator of orders using self-service terminals is growing slowly but surely: over the past weekend, 19% of orders were accepted at the restaurant on the Livoberezhnaya metro station.

Summing up, it can be noted that the use of such a novelty in McDonald’s restaurants saves time and causes positive emotions, thanks to self-placement of an order and payment with a contactless card.
