Christmas Eve will be a day of last-minute shopping before the holiday on Dec. 25. As for food destinations, will McDonald’s be open on this day?

McDonald’s remains one of the top fast-food chains in America. It’s one of the oldest, too, with its cheeseburgers and fries as the classic meal that consumers can get at almost all hours of the day (depending on the franchise). This also goes for some holidays. Does it include Christmas Eve, though?

Christmas Eve and McDonald’s don’t go together, to say the least. For those who celebrate this holiday, it’s usually a day of home-cooked meals or purchasing something from the local supermarket. The Golden Arches doesn’t fit this description, but some may enjoy a Big Mac on this December holiday.

Whether it’s a burger, cheeseburger, chicken nuggets, salad, wrap or an obscure menu item, these are always available to purchase, even on Christmas Eve, if McDonald’s will be open on Dec. 24. Some consumers may buy all of these items at once.

Could a family have a holiday meal of Big Macs and fries? Of course. Everyone’s favorite meal varies. The same goes for the family that likes to eat Chipotle, Burger King, Taco Bell or at another fast-food chain on a particular holiday.

Then, there’s the question of if McDonald’s will even be open on Christmas Eve? As noted, it’s not the ideal place to attend on this holiday, but those who don’t celebrate Christmas may frequent it for a cheeseburger and fries.

McDonald’s will be open on Christmas Eve. However, the hours may vary by the franchise, so check your local restaurant to find out the specifics.
