Whether you're planning your holiday dinner menu or are trying to wrap up all of your end of year projects, December 25 is definitely a busy time. So there's no shame if you're looking to grab a quick bite at a fast-food chain on Christmas Day.
If a Big Mac is your go-to meal, you might be wondering: Is McDonald's Open on Christmas Day? Good news, some location will be open, however, be mindful certain restaurants may be closed or operate with shortened hours on December 25.
FYI: If your local McDonald's is closed, check out the grocery stores open on Christmas Day, as well as some sit-down restaurants you can visit.
What are McDonald's holiday hours?
Much like its hours on Thanksgiving, McDonald's Christmas hours very by location. "Only a handful of McDonald's restaurants open on Christmas Day, please refer to the restaurant locator to confirm if your local restaurant is open during the Christmas period," the fast-food chain states on their website.
