Orlando’s $16M McDonald’s goes viral for arcade, pizza ovens and ice cream bar

The world’s largest McDonald’s is drawing renewed attention after a viral Instagram video showcased the massive Orlando, Florida, location known as Epic McD.

Located on International Drive, the two-story restaurant spans roughly 19,000 square feet and is valued at more than $16 million, according to the video. The site stands apart from typical McDonald’s locations thanks to its expanded menu, arcade-filled interior, and multiple themed attractions.

The video walks viewers through the scale of the building, highlighting features rarely associated with the fast food chain, including custom pizza ovens, pasta dishes, Belgian waffles, a full ice cream bar, and collectible souvenir machines offering pressed pennies and medallions.

Inside Orlando’s Epic McD experience

The Orlando restaurant includes table service, with customers placing numbered markers at their seats while staff deliver food directly to them. The first floor houses specialty food stations and dessert counters, along with a Disney-themed photo booth designed for visitors who want a souvenir from their visit.

Upstairs, the second floor is dedicated largely to entertainment. The location contains a full arcade with crane games, basketball shooters, racing simulators, and ticket redemption counters, as well as a sprawling multi-level indoor play structure for kids.

The Instagram clip also highlights several futuristic touches throughout the building, including automatic trash cans, themed décor, and more.

Epic McD has long been known for offering menu items not commonly available at standard McDonald’s locations in the United States, such as build-your-own pizzas, Philly cheesesteaks, and expanded dessert options, making it a frequent stop for tourists visiting Orlando’s nearby theme parks.
