A new McDonald’s for Cobham

We are in the process of bringing forward proposals for a new McDonald’s restaurant at 17 Portsmouth Road in Cobham.

As part of our commitment to community engagement, we hosted a public consultation in May 2024 to enable members of the local community to view and comment on our emerging proposals.

We would like to thank everyone who took the time to view our proposals and provide us with comments. We have carefully reviewed all the feedback we received and have now submitted a Change of Use application to Elmbridge Borough Council.
