A woman took her horse into a McDonald's restaurant after staff refused to serve her in the drive-thru.
The horse defecated on the floor of the restaurant, in Whitefield, Greater Manchester, in front of shocked Saturday lunchtime customers.
Staff called police who handed the woman a fixed penalty notice for 'causing alarm and distress'.
Both the woman and her daughter, who have not been named, had ridden up to the McDonald's branch and tried to use the drive-thru on horseback but were refused service.
Ride-thru: The woman and her daughter attempted to use the drive-thru at McDonald's before taking a horse inside
Staff told them to tie up their animals and come inside the restaurant on foot as it is against their health and safety policy to serve horseriders in the drive-thru.
But instead the woman took her horse inside, where it defecated.
A statement posted by Greater Manchester Police’s Whitefield branch on its Facebook page said they received a call from McDonalds. It added: 'The staff refused to serve the women due to company policy.
;The women then took the horse into the restaurant who ended up doing his business on the floor.
'The sight and smell of this caused obvious distress and upset to customers trying to eat, as well as staff members.
'“Officers arrived at the location and woman was issued a Fixed Penalty notice.'
A spokesman for McDonald’s said: 'I can confirm that on 20th July a woman allowed her pony to enter our restaurant in Whitefield after being refused service in the drive-thru lane.
Fine: She was issued with a fixed penalty notice after the horse defecated on the floor of the restaurant in Whitefield, Greater Manchester
'The incident caused distress to customers and disruption for the restaurant and the police issued the woman with a Fixed Penalty notice.
'The health safety of our customers and staff is our top priority and for this reason we are unable to serve pedestrians, bicycle riders or customers on horseback through the drive-thru.'
The policy was introduced over fears that safety of staff and customers could be put at risk if a horse is spooked by a car.
The company said they would not be releasing CCTV footage of the incident.
