Who doesn’t love a cheeky McDonald’s? The fast food chain has a chokehold on most of the world, let’s be honest, and now apparently one branch is king.

One Maccas store in Wales has been dubbed the best in the UK by a Michelin-star chef. Gareth Ward, whose restaurant Ynyshir won best restaurant at the National Restaurant Awards, said there’s something different about the branch in Welshpool, Powys.

He told Wales Online: ‘I’m telling you now, Welshpool McDonald’s is on a different level. It’s just got different elements to everyone else.

‘It’s just absolutely smashing it. Last time I had a crispy chicken and it definitely had something like truffle mayonnaise on it. I don’t think it did, but it tasted like it did.

‘Everybody I speak to says this is, by far, the best McDonald’s in the world. Welshpool McDonald’s that’s what it’s all about.’

So what do you say: could this unusually good Maccas be worth planning a trip to?
