McDonald's told The Irish Sun it's continuing to test all of the items to work out how to safely bring them back with fewer staff in the kitchen.

Maccies has been reopening its restaurants in phases for either home delivery, takeaway or drive-thru orders.

It now has more than 1,260 sites open for business across Ireland and the UK, although not all branches offer every method of ordering.

In July, McDonald's expanded its breakfast selection to 1,000 restaurants.

The breakfast menu includes fan favourites such as McMuffins and hash browns, but there will be no porridge, bagels or breakfast wraps.

McDonald's initially brought back breakfast to 42 branches as part of a trial.

McDonald's reduced menu - what's still missing?

MCDONALD'S might be expanding its reduced menu, but there are still fan favourites that are temporarily unavailable.

This includes:

  • Two wraps (Veggie, Fajita Chicken)
  • Salads
  • Breakfast Wrap
  • Breakfast bagels
  • Spicy Snack Wrap
  • Happy Meal Wraps
  • Frozen drinks range
  • Ice cream cones and flakes

McDonald's fans can get a Big Mac for £1.60 as part of the Eat Out to Help Out scheme, which will run until the end of August.

McDonald's temporarily shut all 1,350 restaurants across Ireland and the UK last March amid the coronavirus lockdown.

The fast food chain has confirmed it now asks customers to wear masks if they're just collecting food and not sitting in.
