There are, in fact, fast food restaurants in Manhattan.

Anyone know if they pay better than ones elsewhere? Or what other things enable them to recruit staff?

Glassdoor.com suggests that McDonald's in NYC pays crew members and cashiers about $36-37k/year and managers around $129k/year.

The national minimum wage of $7.25/hour works out to about $12k/year, so that's about three times as much.

New York State has a higher minimum wage, $14.20/hour. That works out to about $24k/year, so NYC McDonalds is still paying considerably more.

Wow. For contrast, central London McDonalds is paying about 10 GBP per hour for crew - which is the UK legal minimum wage and as of today equivalent to 12 USD.
