All McDonald's drive-thrus in Kent have been operating since Tuesday, June 2.
Outlets have been adapted to ensure social distancing and hygiene so that customers and staff are kept as safe as possible.
Perspex screens have been installed at serving areas and employees are provided with gloves and masks.
Measures include one way systems marked out on the floor, limited numbers of diners being allowed inside at one time and stations providing hand sanitizer.
There will also be fewer self-service screens in use, all of which will be cleaned at least every 30 minutes.
Customers are encouraged to visit alone where possible and can also order their meal via the My McDonald's app.
Seating areas, toilets and lifts will remain closed.
