McDonald’s UK, home to over 1,400 restaurants, usually closes on Christmas Day to give staff a day off. But a select few locations are staying open for hungry holiday revellers.
Since around 80% of McDonald’s UK outlets are franchise-run, each can decide their own Christmas opening hours. That means your local branch’s availability might differ.
For the official status, check McDonald’s restaurant locator to see if your nearest branch is open during the festive season.

Festive Flavours: McDonald’s Christmas Menu
Fancy a seasonal treat? This year, McDonald’s has dropped a quirky festive menu for six weeks, including the Grinch Meal with meat or veggie burger options.
The Grinched McShaker fries come with a punchy gherkin-flavour seasoning and the meal even includes a pair of cheeky socks.
For drinks, try the Frozen Grinch Lemonade — a zesty frozen lemonade topped with a vivid green melon swirl for that extra festive pop.
Round off your feast with the Mischief McFlurry, packed with dairy ice cream, Smarties, festive Christmas tree sprinkles, and fruity strawberry sauce.
