Ah, McDonald’s. Is there any more reliable chain out there? When you drive up, or step into the lobby, you know what you’re going to get. The food is reasonably priced, filling, and will probably taste the same every time. You know exactly what the menu will hold – unless you’re lucky enough to be there when the Shamrock Shake or McRib is back. And no matter where you are, the dining room will probably look pretty similar.

That is unless you’re in Coralville, Iowa. The most unique McDonald’s in Iowa – and one of the most unique in the world – is located in this city adjoining Iowa City. Paying tribute to the area’s history and filled with quirky memorabilia that makes it look more like a roadside attraction, it’s not just a reliable meal on your drive – it’s a one-of-a-kind photo opportunity that will make sure you never see McDonald’s the same way again.
