McDonald’s Breakfast Hours (2026)

McDonald’s does not set one national breakfast window. Corporate says breakfast hours “vary based on restaurant location,” with most restaurants serving from opening until 10:30 AM or 11:00 AM local time (McDonald’s corporate statement via Parade, July 6, 2026). What 2026 sources consistently report:

Day Typical breakfast window
Monday – Friday 5:00 AM – 10:30 AM
Saturday – Sunday 5:00 AM – 11:00 AM

Hours: whathours.com (~May 2026), designbeep.com (June 2026), McDonald’s corporate via Parade (July 2026). Start time ~5:00 AM per location reports.

⚠️ No all-day breakfast. McDonald’s discontinued all-day breakfast nationally in March 2020 and has not brought it back as of 2026. A few individual franchises may serve select items later — that’s the exception, not the rule.
