I tried McDonald's In China after Seeing the Robot videos
Trying McDonald’s in Shanghai: Robots and Self-Service
I visited a McDonald’s in Shanghai to try it for myself and see how it compares with McDonald’s elsewhere. I’d seen videos of robots entertaining customers there, so I was curious to see them in person.

The creator visits a McDonald's in Shanghai after seeing videos of robots at the restaurant. He checks the breakfast menu on a self-service screen that offers English and notes that breakfast is nearly over. He orders food, pays using an Alipay QR code, watches delivery couriers collect orders from a separate pickup room and finds a place to charge his phone. He tries breakfast and asks a cashier about the robots. The cashier says they were part of a one-month pilot in March, when they greeted customers and delivered food to tables, but they are no longer there. The creator later browses the lunch menu, which includes pork, beef, fish and chicken options as well as several pie flavours. The branch is not named, and the video does not state when it was filmed.

The creator opens in Shanghai outside a McDonald's, asking where the robots are. He wants to compare this branch with McDonald's elsewhere and goes inside to order. A self-service screen has an English option and lists breakfast items; he says breakfast will end in seven minutes. He considers several combinations and says he paid about 22, without clearly restating the currency at that point. He names WeChat, Alipay and UnionPay, then shows how he scans with Alipay. He describes a separate, mostly empty room where delivery couriers arrive, scan a code, collect food and leave. He also finds a place to charge his phone and eats breakfast. After asking a cashier about the robots, he says they were used for one month in March, three or four months earlier, as a pilot or demonstration. The robots posed, greeted customers and delivered food to tables, but were no longer there during his visit. He later reads the lunch menu, mentioning pork, beef, fish and chicken, several combo prices, and taro, pineapple and strawberry pies. The video ends with a brief sign-off. The exact restaurant branch and filming date are not stated.
