Good news, Mcdonald’s Singapore is introducing several new items in September 2020. Look forward to the new Yuzu Cream Cheese Pie, Melon Waffle Cone, Smoky Nacho Cheese Sauce, Minion Potatoes as well as Minion Happy Meal toys.

The Melon Waffle Cone (from S$2) will be available at all Dessert Kiosks from 3 Sep 2020.

The Yuzu Cream Cheese Pie (from S$1.50) will be available at all outlets.

McDonald’s Singapore will also be launching Minion Happy Meal Toys in 35 different designs on 4 Sep 2020 at 11am. Seven new designs will be released every Thursday at 11am. Remember to mark down the timing!

The Minion Happy Meal Toys will be packaged in opaque capsules and they will include minions such as Bob, Mel, Kevin, Stuart, Phil and Dave in various outfits.

McDonald’s Singapore is back to take your order tomorrow on 11 May 2020, via contactless McDelivery®, Drive-Thru and takeaway.

Most of McDonald’s Singapore outlets will be open from 7am to 9pm. During this Circuit Breaker period, they won’t be offering 24-hour service, and the Dessert Kiosks and McCafé® counters will remain closed. Some restaurants will have different opening hours and those located in parks, tourist attractions, and some institutions will also remain closed.

No prize for guessing what everyone will be eating tomorrow.

Bad news, McDonald’s Singapore has just announced that they will not be reopening on May 5 like many of us hoped they would.

In a recent Instagram post, they mentioned that they have been allowed to restart operations from May 4 under the essential services framework. However, they’ve decided to extend their closure for a little longer for the safety and well-being of their employees and customers.

They also mentioned that they will continue to monitor the Covid-19 situation in the community a little bit longer before they make the decision on when to reopen their stalls.

While we are saddened by the news, we feel like it is a responsible step forward by them and we hope to be able to get our hands on our McSpicy’s soon.

Bad news for all Mcdonald’s fans. Mcdonald’s Singapore is closing all outlets from now until 4 May 2020.

As a preventative action in the fight against COVID-19, Mcdonald’s Singapore has been advised by the Ministry of Health to suspend all restaurant operations, including McDelivery and Drive-Thru, until 2 May 2020.

They will be closing all restaurants with effect from today, 19 April at 11am and will take their last Drive-Thru and Delivery orders at 8am and 10.30am, respectively.

Here’s the statement from Mcdonald’s Singapore Facebook Page:

“These are unprecedented times for all of us. With the safety of all our customers and employees as the top priority, we will do all we can to help Singapore flatten the curve.

If you thought that McDonald’s Create Your Taste (CYT) was a great leap forward for fast food chains worldwide, be prepared to be blown away by their latest concept – McDonald’s Next recently launched in Hong Kong, and is the world’s first and currently only outlet.

This spanking new concept in the heart of Hong Kong adds on a D.I.Y salad bar menu on top of burgers and whatnot. The interior is also nothing quite like the McDonald’s you know.

Table service happens after 6pm daily here at McDonald’s Next. Also, choose from a selection of premium coffee beans.

We ventured to Admiralty in Hong Kong to check out all that McDonald’s Next has to offer. Here is what you can expect from the new McDonald’s.

SLEEK & MODERN INTERIOR

Quite unlike any other McDonald’s in the world, McDonald’s Next is sort of futuristic-looking and pretty sexy.

The interior was the first thing that caught our attention; we have never seen any McDonald’s outlet anywhere that looked this chic and sleek. Seats were abundant and aplenty, and the overall ambience is nice to relax over food or coffee.

EFFICIENT ORDERING SYSTEM

You can order your D.I.Y burger or salads from the touch screen menus. Then, pay using your Octopus (MTR or train) Card or a Credit Card. Grab a locator and head over to your seat, and your order will be sent to you directly.

Wet napkins are provided, too. Talk about the difference in service!

IMPRESSIVE MENU

The menu is pretty extensive.

Over at the salad bar, the choice of salad bases were rather mediocre, though. If you are fine with iceberg lettuce, go ahead and grab a salad. You have a whole range of toppings such as sweet corn, asparagus, quinoa & cous cous, bacon, grilled chicken, crayfish mayo and more.

The salad that we picked out was fresh but as we said, the salad base was nothing to shout about. The crayfish mayo however, was absolutely delicious and that made the entire meal worthwhile. The nice cardboard packaging also makes it a really convenient to-go meal.

But we say stick to the burgers. The burger choices are part of the Create Your Taste (CYT) line and it is pretty much the same menu we have in Singapore.

Everything ordered via the touch-screen menu will be served to you directly with cutlery and wet towels.

The coffee choices are pretty impressive as well. There is a range of flavoured coffee, and you can pick from a variety of coffee beans from all over the world. Premium teas are also available for non-caffeine drinkers as well.

We settled for a Hazelnut latte (HKD$30) and an Orange Mocha (HKD$30). The latter was really robust in flavours and reminded us a lot of the orange-flavoured Van Houten chocolates.

FREE CHARGING & WIFI

If your gadgets are running low on battery, you can have them recharged easily on some of the tables here. Take a short break in between shopping, and grab a coffee while your phone recharges.

In the mean time, you can also enjoy the free wifi provided.

If you are in Hong Kong, check out McDonald’s Next. It is worth being among the first few in the world to experience this new concept – before they bring it to more cities, of course.
