They should bring back that little mascot.

People would accuse them of racism if they did that today.

and they should.

the entire menu, and company history is cultural appropriation. They literally ripped off a mexican family restaurant

We only have 8 years to go until Taco Bell has won the franchise wars and all restaurants become Taco Bell!

Late-90s, early-2000s McDonald's was peak.

Dollar menu. Pokemon toys. Some has N64 play areas.

I don't think that 80s pic is right. The prices and drink fountain, plus the signage all feels too modern. Maybe the chairs are left over, but I'd like to see a pic from the 80s. I can only find 90s when searching online.

Newer pic, definitely. They just hadn't updated the interior. Best I could find quickly. Here's one from 82, but clearly a custom rather than corporate level consistent interior:

Now that looks 80s!

I'm pretty sure the breakfast menu is really recent. This article seems to back me up on that thought

Edit: oh, yeah. Look at the cars on the left side of the 80s pic lol

All I needed to see was the Baja Blast on the menu to know that that picture isn’t from the 80’s. (Others have also mentioned the cars visible which is also a giveaway,
