Starting the first Monday of 2026 on a high note has never been easier, thanks to McDonald’s Singapore. Known for their iconic breakfast offerings, the fast-food giant is celebrating National Breakfast Day by treating early risers to a simple but satisfying delight: a free Sausage McMuffin®.
A Little Morning Joy to Beat the Back-to-Work Blues
Returning to work or school after the holiday break can feel a little daunting, and McDonald’s seems to have recognised that. On 5 January 2026, between 7am and 9am, customers who pop by participating outlets will be able to claim a free Sausage McMuffin®. This classic breakfast favourite—warm, comforting, and familiar—is the kind of treat that makes starting the day just that little bit sweeter.
Timing is key for this promotion. With only a two-hour window for the giveaway, those who plan to join in should aim to arrive early. After all, it’s first-come, first-served, and McDonald’s is giving away a total of 28,000 Sausage McMuffins® across the island.
28,000 Free Sausage McMuffins® Across Singapore
For those who love numbers, here’s something to note: each participating McDonald’s outlet will have approximately 200 free Sausage McMuffins® available. While that may sound like plenty, past promotions have shown that Singaporeans love a good deal, so early arrival will ensure you don’t miss out.
The giveaway is limited to one per customer, so everyone has a fair chance to enjoy this breakfast treat. It’s a thoughtful way for McDonald’s to show appreciation to their patrons while giving the island a small, tasty boost first thing in the morning.
Upgrade Your Free Breakfast for a Filling Start
For those who prefer a heartier morning meal, McDonald’s has made it easy to turn the free Sausage McMuffin® into a light breakfast set. With just an additional $3, customers can add a Hash Brown and a choice of Coffee or Tea. It’s a fuss-free way to enjoy a more complete breakfast without spending much more.
This option is particularly convenient for commuters who need a quick, warm, and satisfying meal before heading to work or school. The combination of a freshly toasted Sausage McMuffin®, a golden Hash Brown, and a steaming cup of coffee or tea is the perfect energiser to start the day.
