What time does mcdonalds start serving happy meals

You're never too old for a Happy Meal, or at least that's what McDonald's is banking on.

The fast food juggernaut this week announced plans to introduce adult-oriented meals — complete with a free toy — in an initiative designed to work off of the nostalgia of the restaurant's famous red cardboard boxes.

The Cactus Plant Flea Market Box is a collaboration between McDonald's and the famous streetwear brand, and will roll out to participating stores starting on Oct. 3.

Unlike the smaller menu items included in the classic Happy Meal, the Cactus Plant Flea Market Box will feature either a Big Mac or a 10-piece Chicken McNuggets, as well as a soda and fries.

Inside the box will also be "one of four collectible figurines" of McDonald's mascots Grimace, the Hamburglar and Birdie, as well as a Cactus Buddy.

"We're taking one of the most nostalgic McDonald's experiences and literally repackaging it in a new way that's hyper-relevant for our adult fans," McDonald's chief marketing officer Tariq Hassan said in a statement.

This is far from McDonald's first foray into branded partnerships.

The chain made waves last April when it teamed up with K-pop superstars BTS as part of its Famous Orders campaign.

In 2020 it released a combo inspired by rapper Travis Scott's favorite order, and it was so popular that it caused some restaurants to run out of Quarter Pounder burgers, CNBC reported at the time.

In addition to the combo meal, McDonald's and Cactus Plant Flea Market will also be releasing a limited-edition line of clothing and merchandise.

Fans who don't want the meal but are interested in buying the clothing will be able to access the collab's website on Monday morning at 11 a.m. ET.

• McDonald's serves lunch at 10:30 a.m., local time Monday through Friday.
• On weekends, the times vary between 10:30 a.m. and 11:00 a.m., local time depending on the location.

McDonald’s is an American fast-food chain that has over 38,000 locations in dozens of countries across the globe, according to McDonald’s corporate website. They serve customers Big Macs, chicken sandwiches, chicken nuggets, happy meals and shakes across varied breakfast and lunch menus.

Offering breakfast and lunch at different hours of the day allows hungry customers to get what they want when they want it, but it’s not always clear exactly what these times are. No one wants to drive to their nearest McDonald's only to head home empty-handed.

What time does McDonald's serve lunch?

McDonald’s locations start serving lunch at 10:30 a.m., local time Monday through Friday, according to locations we called across the country.

On weekends, the times vary, yet are comparable to their weekday counterparts. Lunch on Saturday and Sunday is made available at 10:30 a.m. or 11:00 a.m., local time depending on the specific location. 

A location in Sacramento, California and one in Bridge City, Texas said they opend their lunch menu at 10:30 a.m., on both weekdays and weekends. Crisfield, Maryland and Canton, Michigan McDonald’s locations said their lunch menu begins at 10:30 a.m. on weekdays but 11:00 a.m. on weekends.

To be sure of your local chain’s specific lunchtime, you’ll need to call or check online. However, depending on the day, it likely won’t diverge from 10:30 a.m. or 11:00 a.m.
