It’s also worth noting that branches in Tier 3 and 4 areas are only allowed to open as a takeaway or delivery service.

McDonald’s is opening 33 branches on Christmas day, so if you wanted a McNugget fix you may be able to quench it if you live nearby one of the locations.

Here we explain the Christmas and New Year opening hours for McDonald’s.

Is McDonald’s open on Christmas Eve?

Earlier this month, it announced plans to close branches early on Christmas Eve and New Year’s Eve, as well as opening later on Boxing Day.

This is to help give staff some time off, Paul Pomroy, CEO, of McDonald’s said: “Given the extraordinary year we’ve all had, we will balance being there for you when you need us with giving our people some additional time off with their loved ones.”

That means branches are expected to close earlier than usual, with times varying across the country.

You can find out the opening times of your local branch on the McDonald’s website or app.
