McDonald's UK chief executive, Paul Pomroy, said: "I know many of you will be looking forward to visiting one of our restaurants over the festive season to enjoy your McDonald’s favourites.

"Given the extraordinary year we've all had, we will balance being there for you when you need us with giving our people some additional time off with their loved ones.

"This means that some of our restaurants may close a little earlier on Christmas Eve and New Year's Eve, and open a little later on Boxing Day."

He added: "We will keep our website and the My McDonald's app updated with our latest opening hours and services."

Opening hours will vary depending on the brand, and McDonald's told the publication it is still ironing out details over Christmas opening hours specifics.
