The Rock N Roll McDonald's (formerly The Original Rock 'N Roll McDonald's) was one of the most famous McDonald's locations in the world, and was once the busiest in the United States. It was a flagship location. The restaurant/museum, located in the Near North Side community area (neighborhood) of Chicago in Cook County, Illinois, United States a few city blocks west of the Magnificent Mile, was a tourist attraction since it opened in 1983. The site had a Rock & Roll exhibit in a building adjacent to the restaurant and a small upstairs McDonald's museum display. The restaurant had a maximum occupancy of 300, which was about three times the standard patron capacity. The building featured the first two-lane McDonald's drive-through, relatively luxurious decor, a cafe, plasma display flat screen televisions and a green roof.
