Man tests McDonald’s drive-thru service to see if he’ll be served while riding horse through the line
The man, known on TikTok as @Iggythearab, took his Arabian horse, named Iggy, to a local McDonald’s.
He wanted to see if he could place an order while riding on horseback.
Many people have thought about how far they could go to get food from a drive-thru, especially during the pandemic when some even walked or cycled through.
This man decided to take it a step further by bringing a horse.
As the rider approached the drive-thru, onlookers were surprised to see a horse.
The rider confidently rode up to the intercom and placed his breakfast order, which included a sausage, bacon, and egg McMuffin.
He also ordered a packet of apple slices for Iggy, his horse.

Man and his horse successfully serve breakfast at McDonald’s drive-thru
As he made his order, people in the background pointed and stared in disbelief. The rider repeated his order to ensure it was clear.
He then moved on to the payment window, where he assured the staff that Iggy was well-behaved.
“He’s friendly, honestly, else I wouldn’t have brought him here,” he said with a smile.
After successfully collecting his order, the man and Iggy galloped away into the parking lot, happy with their breakfast.
The rider expressed his surprise, saying, “Success, didn’t think they’d serve us.”
This fun adventure quickly went viral on social media, with many viewers sharing their reactions.

Comments flooded in, with people making jokes about the situation.
One viewer humorously mentioned the lack of a cup holder for drinks, while another joked about the possibility of the horse leaving a mess in the drive-thru.
Many were impressed by how calm the McDonald’s staff remained throughout the encounter.
That person in the back of the car would have been me if I saw a horse at a drive through, one user said.
The sound of the horse trotting is so satisfying, the second user said.
Your horse is more patient than drivers, the third user wrote.
Get out of the way, we’ve got apple slices to collect, another user said.
Didn’t know they’d let horses through the drive thru. That’s awesome, someone user commented.
McDonald’s drive-thru rules
Despite the fun of this event, it is important to note that McDonald’s has specific rules for their drive-thrus.
According to their official website, only vehicles such as cars, vans, trucks, mopeds, motorbikes, and road-worthy mobility scooters are allowed.
Horses and horse-drawn vehicles are not permitted due to health and safety regulations.
The website emphasizes that the safety of customers and employees is the top priority.
While this particular McDonald’s served the horse rider without issue, it is not a common practice.
Some locations may be more lenient than others, but typically, horses are not allowed.
Interestingly, this is not the first time a horse has appeared in a drive-thru.
There have been other instances where people brought horses or ponies to fast-food restaurants, adding to the fun and surprise.
These moments remind us of the creativity and humor people can bring to everyday situations.
