When you think of Christmas, you probably think of family, movies, traditions, and of course, food. Maybe you're picturing long drives to and from a relative's house. Maybe you mostly celebrate on Christmas Eve, like my family, in which case Christmas Day is more of a recovery day. I'm not sure about you, but when I need a little pick-me-up, fast food really does the trick. Related: This all makes me wonder, is McDonald's open on Christmas Day? Asking for a friend myself.

My family does the whole classy dinner situation on Christmas Eve. We've got the whole "eat, drink, and be merry" thing down pat. So when I wake up on Christmas Day, there's not much else to do besides eat leftovers, which can be a bore after scarfing them down the night before. I just know that eating some McNuggets on Christmas would hit different. And if the ice cream machine isn't broken? That'd be a Christmas miracle if I ever saw one.

So, I did some digging. First, I went to the internet because how else do people learn things? According to a McDonald's representative who talked to Country Living, "Ninety-five percent of McDonald's restaurants are independently owned and operated, so the holiday business hours will vary by location." Their own website essentially says the same.
