McDonald's store
tienda de McDonald's


Explanation:
Apparently, the convention within the internal documents and jargon of McDonald's is to refer to each of the restaurants as a "store," and I see no reason not to reflect this in the Spanish translation.

I also do not see a reason to elongate the translation to "tienda propiedad de McDonald's."

Note that the correct spelling of the company name is "McDonald's."

Macdonald's store
punto de McDonald's


Explanation:
Es lo que utilizaríamos en Colombia.
De pronto, puede funcionar bien para la comunidad latina en EE.UU.

Por ser un lugar donde se come, no utilizaría "tienda" ni "almacén" ni nada parecido.
