It comes as rival McDonald’s has reopened some sites near distribution centres for takeaways, but not in Norfolk.

Firms including Gourmet Burger Kitchen (GBK) at Chapelfield and Five Guys, Orford Place in Norwich are operating a click-and-collect and delivery service. Burger meals are also available to collect from Harry’s Hatch at Harry’s Bar, Chapelfield Gardens, Norwich.
