This update is welcome news for the people of Northallerton, who would previously have faced a 15-minute drive to Leeming Bar to get a Big Mac.
It's also welcome news for the people of Darlington, with only a 25-minute drive for people of the town, while it's also located between the A1 and A19 for commuters.
Plans for the site show how it will have an outdoor seating area, parking spaces and drive-through lanes.
In its latest update, McDonald's Northallerton said: "We’re nearly there. Official Opening!
"We are extremely excited to announce that our official opening day will be 11th October at 11am, just in time for your lunchtime cravings.
"We thought we’d let you all have a little nosey at our brand new, first-ever decor before you come say hello on the 11th."
Previously, McDonald's were recruiting for roles in the new restaurant, while the builders of the venue, Wharton Construction, have opened up about how they have managed to create the building for the new fast food place.
Matthew Wharton, director of Wharton Construction, who has been building the new McDonald's, added: "We are constructing the highly anticipated new McDonalds in Northallerton.

"It would have been a 15-minute drive but soon people will have a McDonald's on their doorstep."
