Telling the location looking at a map

Hi. Let's say you're looking at as a self-made map of your neighborhood and it happens that there is only one McDonald's and Starbucks in it. And the place you're looking for is betwee the two. Can you say this?

"It's between McDonald's and Starbucks."

How about this? Is it correct in this context?

"It's between the McDonald's and the Starbucks."

Would it make a difference if there were more than one McDonald's and Starbucks in the neighborhood and the place you're looking for is between one of them respectively. Would this be correct without specifying the McDonald's and Starbucks using street names or other details? I hope my questions are clear.

"It's between a McDonald's and a Starbucks."
