What is on the McDonald's limited menu - are they selling Happy Meals?
by Anna PaulMcDonald’s will open all of its drive-thrus and scores more restaurants by next Thursday, the chain confirmed today.
By 4 June, it will reopen 975 of its branches, including 924 drive-thru restaurants and 75 which will offer delivery through Uber Eats or Just Eat.
The announcement comes after the chain was accused of ‘ignoring the north’ when all of the restaurants it reopened in England last week were in the south-east.
McDonald’s confirmed via Twitter: ‘We can confirm that 924 Drive-Thru restaurants will open between 2nd and 4th June.’
The restaurants will incorporate new security measures, such as a £25 spend limit, a limited menu over reduced hours, and will encourage customers to pay via contactless.
So, what’s on the menu and can you get a Happy Meal?

A statement from McDonald’s UK and Ireland CEO Paul Pomroy explained the chain plans to reintroduce breakfast favourites soon.
It said: ‘Over the coming months, we will explore how to extend the menu, increase our opening hours and reintroduce those much-missed McMuffins at breakfast.’
However, it stressed that McDonald’s will do so very cautiously and guided by information from the government and health officials.’

Yes, Happy Meals will be available and you’ll be able to choose from chicken nuggets, veggie dippers or a hamburger or cheeseburger.
