McDonald's

You know exactly what you're getting when you pull into West Denton Retail Park at 11pm after a few drinks in town. This McDonald's does the job without pretense – decent service, consistently hot chips, and crucially, working facilities when you need them most. The car park's big enough that you won't be doing laps looking for a space, and the drive-through moves at a reasonable clip even during weekend rushes. It's not going to change your life, but sometimes that's exactly the point. The staff seem less frazzled than the city centre branches, and you can actually hear yourself think inside. Perfect for those retail park missions when you've dragged yourself to IKEA and need something predictably satisfying before the journey home.
