Everyone in Roswell is gaga for UFOs and little green men. Ever since 1949 when an unidentified object crashed in a farmer’s field near the city, there have been rumors about aliens, government cover-ups, and UFOs. Even now, almost 70 years later, people are still fascinated by the possibility of visitors from space.

Every year, visitors flock to Roswell for their conspiracy-theory fix and a chance to run into an alien. Catering to the tourists, Roswell has become UFO Central, with scads of out-of-this-world themed restaurants, shops, and attractions. Even McDonald’s is in on the fun.

This Roswell McDonald’s crashed onto the scene in 2005.

The inside is pretty Mcnormal.

Even the murals are out of this world.

You can find the UFO McDonalds at 720 North Main Street, at the corner of West 7th Street.
