McDonald's

You're tucked right beside the castle marina with views across the water that genuinely elevate your Big Mac experience. This isn't your typical high street McDonald's – the location by Castle Bridge feels almost scenic, with outdoor tables that catch the sun and enough space to breathe. The usual McDonald's efficiency is there, but something about eating fries while watching narrowboats drift past makes it feel less rushed. Sure, it's still fast food, but when you're sitting outside on a decent day with the castle backdrop, it hits different. The staff keep things moving smoothly even during busy periods, and there's proper parking which is gold dust around here. It's become an oddly pleasant pit stop for families doing the castle run or anyone needing a quick bite with an unexpectedly lovely view.
