The McCain Happy Frydays Café opened at 119 Strachan Avenue in downtown Toronto on October 30 for a limited period on Wednesdays through Sundays until November 24 to offer Canadians a whimsical dreamland where french fries are the star attraction.
“McCain fries have been a part of so many cherished meals and memorable moments with loved ones,” said McCain Foods Managing Director Matt Kohler. “With the Happy Frydays Café, we’re bringing that same sense of joy to a whole new level. This is a place for people to gather, celebrate, and get inspired to create even more golden moments with McCain at home.”
Before customers even reach the door, they will know they’re in the right place thanks to the 25 foot french fries that adorn the Café’s eye-catching exterior. Inside the premises, guests can choose from a menu of McCain favorites that have been reimagined for maximum shareability. In addition, on every ‘Fryday,’ from November 1 to 22 the Café will feature a new menu item, offering yet another reason to return.
From the colorful pick-up window to a fully stocked condiment bar, the Happy Frydays Café is built to be shared and enjoyed. Guests can congregate in the lively communal dining area, snap photos at every turn, and finish the experience by shopping a limited-edition McCain fry-themed capsule collection of T-shirts, hats, and sweatshirts to take the memories home.
