Are McDonalds & Burger King Open or Closed on the 4th of July 2021?
Happy 4th of July! If youre looking for a quick meal for Independence Day 2021, then you might be wanting to grab something from McDonalds or Burger King. Some are, but not all. Read on for more details. McDonalds Hours Vary Because Most Stores Are Franchise-Owned  The good news is that most McDonalds locations will be open for the 4th of July holiday. However, those restaurant hours may vary by location, since most locations are franchise-owned. This means that restaurants can determine their own holiday hours. To determine the hours of the McDonalds near you, check out the store locator tool here. McDonalds is also working with delivery services, including Uber Eats and DoorDash, if youre interested in having your meal delivered to your home today. You can access exclusive deals from McDonalds, including Mobile Order & Pay options and Curbside pickup, if you use the app. One of the current deals available involves getting free large fries with the app download through December 31 for first-time app users. Other deals include $1 large fries through December 31 (one time a week) and $.99 premium-roast coffee or iced coffee through December 31 at participating locations. McDonalds is also offering Free Fries Friday through December 31 (with a minimum $1 purchase).
