‘200 hash browns to go please’ (Picture: McDonald’s)

A man has been arrested for drink driving after he ordered 200 hash browns when he was told he couldn’t have any chicken nuggets for breakfast.

After being told he couldn’t order from the main menu at 4.50am, he became irate and did four laps of the drive thru at a branch in Sydney.

When police arrived after being called by police he was still outside the restaurant waiting for his hash browns.

When he was breathalyzed the 30-year-old from Epping, New South Wales, was found to be three times the drink drive limit.


The Australian Daily Telegraph reported that the man had his licence suspended and will appear at Hornsby Court on November 30.

He is not the first person to complain about not being able to get nuggets at breakfast.



So many people asked the question that McDonald’s was forced to explain on its website why nuggets are not served in the morning.

It says: ‘We only have the capacity to cook one set of products at a time.

‘Breakfast and main menu items cook at different temperatures and we need the same set of equipment to cook sausage and eggs and beef patties.’

He added: ‘We also would not cook beef and pork on the same grill at the same time. There is limited space in the kitchen and we have the maximum amount of grills at the moment in all our restaurants.’
