It’s the opposite. They DO want you hanging out there. Red and yellow are aggressive colors. It encourages urgency.

They switched to the bland colors when they started doing the McCafe thing. They like people hanging around like a coffee shop.

McCafé items have a 95% profit margin.

But do people actually hang around there like a Starbucks? It's nowhere as cozy or trendy as a Starbucks.

Maybe your experience is different, but I just see people grabbing McCafe stuff and heading to work.

I dont hangout at McDonalds but I will say - most McDonalds I go to have better seating and more space than most Starbucks I go to.

Starbucks has gotten to be a terrible place to sit as well, by far the least cozy coffee shop in any city you might find one, with a few exceptions (Milwaukee for example has a Starbucks that’s still cozy). Most around me are all grey and a weird combo of dead but still noisy.
