The McDonald's website confirmed that all drive-thrus in Leeds would reopen at 11am until 10pm.
McDonald's said staff will use face coverings and gloves, while Perspex screens and social distancing measures have also been introduced.
The chain said it will continue to offer a limited menu over reduced hours and will cap spending at £25.
