CosMc’s locations will occupy less physical space compared to a standard McDonald’s site, and the new spots are experimenting with various layouts, including multiple drive-thru lanes. Customers using credit cards will also being able to swiftly pay at the drive-thru speaker, enhancing service efficiency.

CosMc's draws its name from a McDonaldland character, an outer space alien that featured in late '80s and early '90s ads craving McDonald's food - the company has focused on marketing its mascots following the successful launch of the viral Grimace Birthday Meal earlier this year.
