McDonald's release details of limited menu available when stores reopen next week

McDonald’s may once again be on offer across parts of Scotland after the fast food giant announced it will be opening 15 stores UK wide later this month.

A statement on Friday confirmed the chain is set to open to stores on May 13, but locations are still to be confirmed next week.

It comes after bosses said they were carrying out 'operational tests' to ensure the safety of staff and customers whilst the coronavirus pandemic continues.

Now McDonald's have released details of the limited menu which will be on offer at the 15 stores.

Similar plans have also been unveiled at other restaurants including TGI Friday’s, Burger King and KFC with some sites opening for deliveries.

Paul Pomroy, McDonald’s chief executive officer for the UK and Ireland, said: “When we return it will be different as we all adjust to this new normal.

“I want to apologise in advance if our first wave of reopened restaurants does not serve your area.

“Rest assured, we are working hard to reopen more restaurants, but I am adamant this must be at the right pace with the wellbeing of our employees, suppliers and customers front of mind.

“Slowly, but safely, we will return to towns and cities across the UK and Ireland, and thank you for your continued support as we work through this crisis.”

McDonald’s have also confirmed what will be on the menu when stores reopen – but sadly some favourite products are missing.

The following items will be on McDonald's limited menu when stores reopen:

Big Mac

Amongst the missing items are milkshakes, Chicken Legends, and most notably, Maccies breakfast.

Manchester Evening News reported how some of the missing menu favourites had left fans devastated.

One said: "No double quarter pounder with cheese? This breaks my heart, @McDonaldsUK. Breaks it big time!"

"No Milkshakes ?? The very foundation of what Croc built the business on - SHAKES!" exclaimed another upset shopper.

Somebody else added: "No mac muffin? that's all I wanted."

If you’re after a Chicken Legend meal with a milkshake you could be in for a long wait.
