What time does mcdonalds start serving breakfast today

McDonald's breakfast is an American delicacy. The perfect egg-to-bread ratio of an egg McMuffin, the savory taste of a McGriddle, and the sweetness of a

McCafé donut—these things and more have earned McDonald's a place in the morning routines of breakfast aficionados the nation over. To make sure you always know when and where you can score McDonald's breakfast, you need to know the chain's breakfast hours.

Does McDonald's serve breakfast all day?

Unfortunately, no. During the start of the pandemic, McDonald's got rid of its popular all-day breakfast "to simplify operations in our kitchens, which we saw provided better speed of service and order accuracy for our customers," they said in a tweet. Womp, womp.

Since then, there's been no word about bringing it back. However, an investigation from Eat This, Not That!reportedly found a handful of locations across the country still serving it all day. Maybe it's a sign of things to come? Time will tell.

So, when is McDonald's breakfast served?

Early risers will be delighted to know breakfast is available starting at 5 a.m. until 10:30 a.m. on weekdays, while on weekends it's possible to grab until 11 a.m.

However, opening times for breakfast might vary depending on location, since some 24-hour spots might function on a different schedule. You can always play it safe by calling up your local Golden Arches for their specific hours.

That being said, if your schedule cooperates with that of the McDonald's breakfast, go ahead and pencil in a trip or two on your way to work to start your day off right. With options like sausage biscuits, hot cakes, burritos, and those beloved hash browns, there is something for everyone.

What time does McDonald’s stop serving breakfast?

McDonald’s serves breakfast until 11am at all restaurants across the UK.

The previous cut-off time for breakfast was 10.30am, but the chain extended the hours in November 2019.

According to McDonald’s, this is because they can’t accommodate cooking both the breakfast and main menu at the same time.

The company website states: ‘Items on our breakfast menu are cooked slightly differently and at a different temperature from items on our main menu.

‘This means we don’t have enough space in our kitchens to accommodate the cooking and preparation of our breakfast and main menus at the same time.

‘The 11am cut off enables us to accommodate our breakfast lovers, whilst allowing the customers who enjoy our main menu to get their food before 11:30am.’

If you miss the window for a breakfast, you can always attempt an at-home Sausage & Egg McMuffin.
