Fast food fans are about to be very happy as McDonald’s has confirmed the long-awaited return of the breakfast wrap after a four-year absence.
The Maccies breakfast wrap disappeared from the global chain’s selection of breakfast offerings back in 2020 (as if that year wasn’t rubbish enough) and has been sorely missed ever since.
Combining all the beloved early-morning ingredients that make a McDonald’s breakfast so good — bacon, sausage, egg, hash browns and sauce all tucked up in a lovely little wrap — it became an instant cult classic but still sadly disappeared along with breakfast bagels, and have no idea why.
However, it now seems Ronald and his mates have seen the error of their ways and have officially announced that the McDonald’s breakfast wrap is coming back this February. We had a feeling 2024 was going to get off to a good start.
Revealing that the fan favourite will be making its highly-anticipated comeback in just a few weeks’ time on Wednesday, 7 February, the company themselves held their hands up and after more than 5,000 direct messages and countless tweets have now decided to give the people what they want.

They even acknowledged that there were over 22 different official petitions created through Change.org to bring back the Maccies breakfast wrap in the time since it was removed from the menu.
If that isn’t love then we don’t know what is.

Other McDonald’s menu items have also been the subject of similar fan petitions as well, with many having called for Chicken Big Mac to be restored permanently too. Sadly, that’s still set to go on 9 May, so you best make the most of your time with it whilst you can.

Family-run tapas restaurant shames customers who stole decorations

A family-run restaurant in Whitefield has publicly shamed a couple who stole new decorations from them.
Campo Blanco, a popular tapas joint in the Bury suburb, threatened to call ‘Santa’ over the petty theft.
Owned and operated by high school sweethearts Aaron and Faye Cummins, the charming local spot opened back in 2018 and has been a firm favourite in Whitefield ever since.
But it’s not just their tapas menu that’s caught the attention of locals – now apparently it’s their new table decorations.
Campo Blanco has shared CCTV footage of a couple who dined there recently pocketing lamps off their table.
The customer in question quietly reaches across her dinner, picks up the pretty gold lamp, turns it off, and shoves it into her coat pocket.
The restaurant shared the video online and pleaded for them to return the lamps by Christmas Eve.
They then said they’d be telling Santa – ‘and by Santa, we mean the police’.
Campo Blanco wrote: “We love our new table lights too. We actually can’t get them anymore as they’ve stopped making them so please bring them back. Also, they aren’t yours!
