McDonald's have announced they're closing all of their restaurants across the UK and Ireland.

The fast food outlet announced the news on social media last night saying all branches will close by 7pm today, March 23rd.

The franchise had originally made the decision to close the seating area across all of their UK and Ireland restaurants.

They remained open for takeaway, Drive Thru and McDelivery only.
