McDonald's gutted in surprise renovation at Cabin John Mall (Photos)


The venerable McDonald's at 11301 Seven Locks Road inside the Cabin John Mall in Potomac has been gutted inside. According to signage posted at the restaurant, it is temporarily closed for renovations. No reopening date has been posted, but one of the signs says that the remodeling will take a few weeks to complete. A second, more optimistic sign says "a few days," but that's a bit too optimistic from what you can see here. But overall, the renovation sends a very positive message to customers that the ownership wants to provide a brand new dining room experience for them.


This McDonald's almost closed a couple of years ago, but agreed to stay at the mall after outcry from its many loyal customers. It looks like they are now updating the store for the long haul, with a sneak peek at the new interior visible in the photo above. Customers are being directed to the Montgomery Mall McDonald's while the renovations take place. Yes, Cabin John Village has Shake Shack - but Shake Shack doesn't have the Big Mac! Or America's favorite fries.

Interesting thing is that the Owners were all ready to close this McDonalds until people in community begged them to stay open………

Not possible for them to have Drive Thru at this Location but am glad to see they are doing some needed Renovations nonetheless !

@7:52 It was the cabin john owners who wanted the McDonald's out. The franchise owners were happy to stay and luckily through a change.com petition the mall owners worked out a lease renewal
