So, is McDonald’s open on New Year’s Day? Almost certainly yes. But like any good relationship, you need to check in before you commit. A little planning saves a lot of heartache (and hunger pangs). It’s the most reliable place on earth for a day that feels completely unmoored. It’s the anchor for the hungover, the bored, and the blissfully unambitious.
Go on. Get yourself that McDouble. You’ve earned it. You survived the awkward midnight kiss and the off-key singing of “Auld Lang Syne.” The rest of the year might be for green smoothies and gym memberships, but January 1st? That’s for being a potato and eating like one. McDonald’s understands. It always does.
