Despite McDonald's latest ad campaign, which is all about fun and summer, featuring about a surfer entering the food chain and another woman pulling out a $10 bill from her bikini bottom, one chain in Melbourne shocked customers as they were greeted with a sign that totally contradicts the summer ad of the store, 9News.com.au reported.
Many customers were perplexed after they noticed McDonald's Oak Park sign that reads, "No shirt. No shoes. No service," suggesting that the staff won't serve them their orders unless they enter the chain with a proper attire.
The food chain was situated next to a suburban swimming pool, so they normally receive customers that are barely covered. But the crew were allegedly fed up with their customers entering the store almost naked and barefooted.
But A Current Affair decided to pay the particular store a visit and found out the sign was replaced with a more polite phrase. "For the comfort of all customers we request shirts and shoes to be worn when in the store please," the new sign reads.
But although the outlet placed a new updated sign to politely ask customers to enter the chain in a proper dress code, A Current Affair noticed that said store was still serving shirtless and barefooted customers amid the dress code sign was in place.
McDonald's explained that the dress code in place at Oak Park was just part of a safety measures as many wet customers visited the store that posed danger to other people. "Our Oak Park restaurant had a number of customers coming in wet from the nearby pool which posed a slip hazard," the spokesperson for the chain said after A Current Affair asked for a comment about their sign.
The spokesperson also said that the sign was already removed from the outlet and they are now "looking into alternate safety measures."
