Leeds residents are “anxious and angry” with McDonald’s over plans to open a takeaway in their neighbourhood.
The fast food giant has drawn up blueprints for a McDonald’s on Otley Road, Headingley. This is where the city’s famous Otley Run pub crawl takes places every weekend, popular among students, stags and hen dos.
Punters dress up in costumes and aim to drink at bars across Headingley and Hyde Park, taking in about 15 pubs. Worried residents have said Headingley is becoming more of a “family-friendly” area and this would blow that to smithereens.
