Mary and Lee Humphrey have eaten a meal at their local fast-food outlet McDonald's in the southern English town of Eastbourne every weekday for nearly 17 years, Britain's the Guardian reported on Wednesday.
The couple first "fell in love" with the restaurant after their arrival to Britain from Canada in 1990.
Sharing nearly the exact same order for all that time, the Humphreys point to the friendliness of the service and the youthful atmosphere and conversation as the draws that keep them coming back for more at the venue they have come to refer to as their "office".
Pooh-poohing anti-McDonald's health warnings and even Britain's BSE ("mad cow") scare, the couple - now in their 80s - say their diet has left them slim and healthy.
"They're always going to criticise McDonald's and I don't understand why - it is one of the cleanest places you'll ever go to," the Guardian quoted Mary Humphrey as saying.
