McDonald’s has given customers an insight into what menu items they can expect to see and what will be missing ahead of the trialling of breakfast hours this week.
The fast food chain will be trialling its breakfast menu at a total of 42 branches across the UK and Ireland this Wednesday, and if successful, plans to roll it out across the country will come in due course.
McDonald’s has not yet announced which branches the breakfast menu will be trialled at.
It has however shared an insight into which breakfast items will be on the menu, but unfortunately for some fans, their top breakfast pick may not be available to order.
This follows the similarly limited main menu that is currently available nationwide.

In an email to customers ahead of the trial, Chief Executive Officer for McDonald’s UK and Ireland, Paul Pomroy, said: “As with our main menu, we will have a limited menu at breakfast but we’ve kept the classics – hash browns, McMuffins and pancakes all return.”
“Unfortunately, whilst adhering to social distancing guidelines, we are unable to serve porridge, bagels and our Breakfast Wrap.”

“This is because we have fewer people in the kitchen.”

Greater Manchester public urged to help get people ‘off the streets and on their feet’ before Christmas

Locals are being urged to help get hundreds of people “off the streets and back on their feet” this festive season.
As the temperatures told colder by the day, and Christmas creeps closer and closer, Greater Manchester Mayor’s Charity is bringing back ‘1000 Beds for Christmas’, and the massively-important initiative is aiming to provide 1,000 nights of accommodation to people at risk of homelessness before the big day arrives.
Forming part of the ongoing ‘A Bed Every Night’ scheme, this festive fundraising mission is designed to provide food, shelter, warmth, and dedicated vital wrap-around support for those who need it most.
The charity says it wants to build on the “incredible success of 2023”, which raised more than £55,000 and provided 1,800 nights of accommodation.
Stockport-based property finance specialists, Together – which has supported the campaign for the last two years – has, once again, generously pledged to match every public donation for the first £20,000 raised.
Unfamiliar with the ‘A Bed Every Night’ scheme? Since 2017, when rough sleeping peaked, the initiative has helped ensure a significantly-higher rate of reduction in the numbers of people facing a night on streets in Greater Manchester than seen nationally.
The landmark scheme has given people the chance to rebuild their lives, while also giving them access to key services and opportunities that allows them to stay off the streets for good.
Despite the scheme’s recent success, organisations across Greater Manchester are under “a huge amount of pressure” to meet the demand for their services this winter, and given the current economic outlook, household budgets will continue to be squeezed – leaving people on the sharp end of inequality and poverty.
