Confirmation today that MJ's in Formby will be a McDonald's restaurant

We can officially confirm today that the MJ's Drive Thru Restaurant will be turning into a McDonald's restaurant.

A spokesperson from McDonald's told the Formby Bubble: “We can confirm that we have submitted a planning application for a new Drive Thru restaurant in Formby and look forward to working with the council on our plans. If approved the restaurant would create at least 65 full and part-time jobs.”

MJ's Drive Thru Cafe/Restaurant in Formby closed it's doors on 28th October last year and there has been a lot of speculation about the future of the building. MJ's opened it's store which combined a 24hr fast food with state of the art steakhouse on 15th January 2015. They have held comedy nights, bingo and entertainment in their huge premises on Altcar Road across the bypass.

A new era for MJ's and also for Formby. What do you think? Let us know,
