Baden Mc Donald’s to Re-open Wednesday Oct. 27, 2021. Free Value Meal Once a Week For a Year to First 100 Customers
On Wednesday, October 27, a long-time Baden family business will throw open the doors on a gift for the community: A completely renovated McDonald’s restaurant. The new facility, located at 300 Ohio River Boulevard, offers a heightened level of choice, engagement, service and family fun under the Golden Arches.
“This year marks the 50th anniversary of the restaurant my grandfather John first opened in 1961,” said McDonald’s Owner/Operator Meghan Sweeney. “Back then, McDonald’s advertising encouraged folks to look for the Golden Arches. After him, my father Paul took over and made it a good time for the great taste of McDonald’s. Today, I follow in their footsteps – serving delicious, convenient meals that have customers lovin’ it.”
Sweeney explained that she made the long-term investment in McDonald’s of Baden so the restaurant will be even more easy, convenient and delicious for all Baden residents.
Grand Re-Opening festivities include:
9 am on Tuesday, October 26
VIP Flag Raising and ribbon cutting with local veterans
5 am on Wednesday, October 27
McDonald’s of Baden opens to serve customers
8 am and 2 pm on Wednesday, October 27
First 100 customers to cross the red carpet receive coupon good for one free Combo Meal every week for a year
5 pm on Wednesday, October 27
Family Night with the Hamburglar
A complete list of grand re-opening festivities is attached.
The redesigned restaurant will evolve how customers order, how they pay and how they’re served. The project is part of a joint effort between McDonald’s and franchisees that’s investing $6 billion to modernize most U.S. restaurants. In Pennsylvania, $266 million will be invested to upgrade 360 restaurants across the state. Each of those upgrades will create new employment opportunities for locals who can help customers take advantage of the new technology.
With this significant construction investment, the transformed restaurant will feature:
- Modernized dining rooms with globally inspired décor and new furniture
- Digital self-order kiosks and menu boards
- Expanded McCafé service areas
- Remodeled counters that allow for table service
- Mobile Order and Pay technology
- Expansive outdoor patio
For those looking to order at their own pace, new digital self-order kiosks make ordering and paying for a meal easy. Kiosks empower guests to browse the menu, find new options and tailor their meals just the way they want. Guests’ orders are delivered to tables by McDonald’s crew members, allowing customers to relax and enjoy a more custom dining experience.
Mobile Order & Pay technology allows McDonald’s customers to use the company’s App to select their favorite McDonald’s items, check in at the restaurant, pay online, then enjoy a meal inside the restaurant or on the go with Drive Thru or Curbside Pickup. And the My McDonald’s Rewards app allows customer to earn points on all qualifying purchases, then redeem them for free menu rewards.
Sweeney also emphasized that the new technology has created greater need for customer service personnel. She hopes to add at least 20 local residents to the restaurant’s crew. Interested workers should stop by, text “APPLY” to 38000, or apply online at www.mcdonalds.com/careers.
“McDonald’s is growing and we’re looking for additional crew members who want to grow with us,” Sweeney said. “We offer flexible scheduling, competitive pay, employee meals and terrific scholarships for all employees who want to continue their education.”
McDonald’s of Baden is one of 19 McDonald’s restaurants owned and operated by Tri-County Management. Based in Cranberry Township, the company is a three-generation family business and McDonald’s franchise organization for more than 55 years. Each location employs more than 50 neighborhood residents.
