Boaters on Morse Lake in Cicero won’t have to leave the water to enjoy a meal, thanks to their local McDonald’s, which is now offering boat-side delivery.
The Cicero McDonald’s restaurant is believed to be the first in Indiana to offer this digitally streamlined service, meaning if boaters are craving lunch, their meal is just a few minutes away – and they won’t have to leave their boat to get it.
The Cicero McDonald’s has partnered with DoorDash to make this process as simple as possible. Drop-offs will be made at the Red Bridge Marina. From the middle of the lake, a customer can place an order via the DoorDash app, set their pickup location to 697 W. Jackson St. and select the ‘hand to me’ delivery option. By the time the boat arrives at the marina, the delivery driver will be waiting for them at the end of the pier with their meal.

“This is really about taking customer service to the next level,” Cicero McDonald’s owner Blake Kosanovich said. “Who wants to end a day on the lake early to run out for lunch? We want to reach our customers anywhere and anyway possible. We couldn’t be more excited to offer this service to the residents and visitors of Cicero.”
The town of Cicero surrounds the upper portion of Morse Reservoir. The man-made lake covers 1,500 acres with a shoreline of over 32 miles and plays host to water and boat enthusiasts throughout the summer.
“We know that Morse Lake is what brings this town together,” Kosanovich said. “We’re honored to serve the people who call Cicero home and the thousands of visitors who enjoy Morse Lake every summer.”
Customers can download the DoorDash app online or through their App Store on their mobile phone. When they’re off the lake, customers can still enjoy all of McDonald’s iconic menu items via carry-out, drive-thru, the McDonald’s app or McDelivery.
