Which Breakfast Option Should You Choose?

Lowest total

Egg McMuffin Only

310 calories • about $4.29 reference

Best when you already have coffee, do not want Hash Browns or want the lowest total spend.

Complete meal

Egg McMuffin Meal

455 calories • about $8.19 reference

Best when you want the sandwich, crispy Hash Browns and small coffee in one order.

Current value deal

$4 Sausage McMuffin Meal

545 calories • officially advertised deal

Best for price-focused users who are comfortable choosing sausage and no egg.

More filling

Sausage McMuffin with Egg Meal

625 calories • local price

Best when you want sausage plus a fresh-cracked egg and do not mind the higher calorie total.

Fast recommendation: buy the Egg McMuffin Meal when you genuinely want all three included items. Choose the sandwich alone when coffee or Hash Browns would be unwanted extras. Choose the current $4 Sausage McMuffin Meal Deal when the lowest advertised complete breakfast price matters more than having an egg.

Why old breakfast deal pages still appear in Google

McDonald’s officially promoted a breakfast 2-for-$4 Mix & Match deal in 2020.
Old press releases and menu pages can remain indexed after the offer ends.
Some franchise markets run local promotions that are not national.
App deals can be personalized by restaurant, account and date.
A search result title does not prove that the offer is active today.

The bread layer is toasted and topped with real butter.

Freshly cracked Grade A egg

The egg is cracked into a round egg ring and cooked on the restaurant grill.

No folded egg

The Egg McMuffin uses a round fresh-cracked egg, unlike many biscuit and McGriddles sandwiches.

How to Check the Egg McMuffin Price Near Me

The phrase “Egg McMuffin price near me” cannot be answered accurately with one national number. Prices are connected to the exact restaurant, order channel, meal configuration and account offers.

Open the McDonald’s app or restaurant locator

Enter your ZIP code, city, address or location.

Select the exact restaurant

Confirm the full address because the price and order are connected to that kitchen.

Choose pickup first

Pickup provides a cleaner comparison with the reference price than delivery.

Open Breakfast or Extra Value Meals

Find the Egg McMuffin Meal rather than selecting only the sandwich.

Open the meal configuration

Check the default side, coffee size, drink choices and customization charges.

Compare separate-item prices

Add the sandwich, Hash Browns and small coffee prices before deciding the meal is better value.

Check Deals and Rewards

Confirm whether the Egg McMuffin is named as an eligible item.

Review the final cart

Check restaurant, tax, drink upgrade, delivery fees and total before payment.

Fair nearby-store comparison: use the same Egg McMuffin Meal, same pickup method, same drink, same date and no personalized discount unless both stores offer it.

Egg McMuffin Breakfast Hours

McDonald’s says local breakfast menus and hours are decided by restaurants, Co-Ops and franchisees. Breakfast is often available from restaurant opening until approximately 10:30 or 11:00 AM local time.

Not automatically all day

A restaurant operating 24 hours does not necessarily serve Egg McMuffin Meals all day.

Hash Browns follow breakfast hours

McDonald’s says Hash Browns are served while breakfast menu items are being sold.

Lunch starts after changeover

The lunch menu generally begins when the local breakfast menu ends.

New This Month: July 2026 Breakfast Update

Launched July 21, 2026: McDonald’s added the limited-time Honey Brown Butter Bacon, Egg & Cheese Biscuit at participating U.S. restaurants while supplies last.

Breakfast item	Status	Calories	Egg type	Main difference
Egg McMuffin	Core breakfast item	310	Fresh-cracked round egg	English muffin and Canadian bacon
Egg McMuffin Meal	Core breakfast meal	455	Fresh-cracked round egg	Adds Hash Browns and small coffee
Honey Brown Butter Bacon, Egg & Cheese Biscuit	Limited time from July 21	490	Folded egg	Honey Brown Butter sauce and buttermilk biscuit

The July biscuit is a separate limited-time sandwich. It does not replace the Egg McMuffin, change the standard Egg McMuffin Meal or create a new Egg McMuffin national deal.

Egg McMuffin Meal Customizations

Customization	What to select	Likely nutrition effect	Price or ordering note
No Canadian bacon	Remove Canadian bacon	Generally lowers calories and sodium	Price may remain unchanged
No cheese	Remove American cheese	Lowers dairy, saturated fat and sodium	Butter and other milk ingredients can remain
No butter	Remove available butter options	Can lower calories and fat	Preparation options can vary by restaurant
Extra egg	Add egg when supported	Increases protein, calories and cholesterol	Additional charge normally applies
Extra Canadian bacon	Add Canadian bacon	Increases protein and sodium	Availability and price vary
Different drink	Choose soda, juice, iced coffee or specialty drink	Can materially increase meal calories	Upgrade charge may apply
No Hash Browns	Remove or avoid the meal	Removes approximately 140 calories	Sandwich-only order may be better value

Removing Canadian bacon does not make the sandwich certified vegetarian. Shared equipment, cheese, butter and other ingredients still require review.

Pickup, Drive-Thru and Delivery Price Differences

Order channel	Price behaviour	Deals and Rewards	Best use
Pickup in McDonald’s app	Selected restaurant’s pickup price	Eligible account deals and Rewards can appear	Best for checking the local base price
Drive-thru	Local restaurant menu price	Provide the app code before ordering when required	Fast collection without entering the lobby
Front counter or kiosk	Local restaurant price	App or kiosk login may be needed for a promotion	Useful for asking about substitutions
McDelivery in the app	Food prices may be higher; delivery and other fees may apply	Eligible Rewards can be used through the app	Convenience rather than lowest cost
Third-party delivery	Platform prices and fees can differ	McDonald’s Rewards generally cannot be redeemed directly	Compare the completed cart before ordering

No universal delivery markup: compare the complete pickup and delivery carts. A fixed 15%, 20% or 30% markup should not be assumed for every restaurant.

Upcoming app terms notice: McDonald’s currently displays revised U.S. Terms and Conditions effective August 24, 2026, including updates involving web and guest ordering, cancellations and refunds. Re-check the terms after that date if an order issue occurs.
