WINONA, Minn. – Say good-bye to Big Macs downtown. The pocket McDonald’s fast-food shop on Main Street will serve its last customer Wednesday. LaCrosse-based Courtesy Corporation, which owns all three McDonald’s in Winona, said the downtown site was too small to accommodate new equipment required to maintain the franchise. Employees have an option to transfer to Courtesy’s other McDonald’s in Winona, each at the far ends of town.
172 Main Street. Too small sandwiched between storefronts. No pun intended. Alley drive-through blocked access to neighboring businesses and had a blind exit onto Main Street.
