This is the very first Mc Cafe I have seen .. which is at the new Berlin Main Train Station. You get regular Junk Food – but they also have a coffee shop area. Is Mc Donald’s trying to catch up with the Starbucks hype .. which is sooo 1998?
I am just happy they got rid of the red and yellow!
Photos by me
Any Mc Cafes on the US – I am curious.

I just got back from living in Germany for over two years. One thing I miss is the McDonald’s espresso drinks they had at all of the McDonalds there. Their Latte Machiatto (sp?) was really fantastic. Stir in some Nutella, and you had yourself a killin good coffee drink.

Hey JP,
thank you for your comment – Nutella and Latta Machiatto sounds actually very tempting.
Where were you located in Germany?

We had a McCafe here in Mountain View, Ca. back in 2002. It’s since been converted back into a regular McDonalds.
There was lots of press when it opened so I checked it out. All Mc Donalds should look like that. Very nice. Free WiFi too.

there were McCafes all over the place in Australia while i was there; i think they’re strictly international, not a USA thing.
i liked them too, offered an alternative. their frozen drinks were delicious. i can’t remember the flavors.

The mcdonalds flagship here in melbourne seems to be the flagship store for australia and that the furnishing u see in the pic are just the same. btw our flagship store has been around for more than a year and a half approaching 2 yrs.
Its Amazing what australia gets first and last internationally

McCafe originally started back in 1993 in Australia. I work in a Mc Cafe in New Zealand, Mc Cafe started here in 1997. Almost every McDonalds here now has a Mc Cafe part. I like the cafe food and coffee we serve =D The food isnt as good as starbucks, the coffee maybe better =P The Mc Cafe i work in is one of the 3 busiest Mc Cafes in New Zealand, we have the same furnishing and stuff as in the pic.

Helo guys,
I m from Pakistan and here Mcdonalds is devoid of Mccafe. I was just wondering is it better to have joint Mcdonalds and Mccafe or separte should have been better. What things you like most? Is it comparable to Starbucks?
