Inside 'time capsule' McDonald's left eerily untouched since the 1980s
An explorer has been left in awe after venturing around an abandoned McDonald's – left untouched since the 1980s. It's been a while since Happy Meals were served in this fast food venue but remnants of its past still remain including vintage drinks machines, old equipment, and even pink and blue seating.
The explorer from the US, who prefers to be known by his moniker, Triangle Of Mass (@trianglemass), shared a video of the eerie scene that has gone viral online. The clip from the adventurer, who has been fascinated by abandoned buildings since he was just seven years old, has racked up over 629,000 views and 116,000 likes.
He found the location with the help of another content creator known as ADHD Urbex after a friend gave him a tip on the location. The video, which features the Paul Anka song "Put Your Head on My Shoulder", begins by showing the quirky 80s interior, still set up and ready for customers to enjoy their burgers and fries.

An old drinks machine can be seen in the video, as well as old, yellow, TV monitors and labels for french fries.
Additionally, there is an old hot chocolate machine designed with the phrase 'Always fresh, always here', which looks barely worn in addition to the old paper and packaging bags.

"Inside was insane just to think all that’s left there over the years collecting dust," TriangleOfMass, said. "To think people use to work there and eat there and the memories shared here at this McDonald’s once is just crazy to me!"
