One notice, pasted on the counter at McDonald’s on the King’s Road, Chelsea, south London, reads: “Due to supply chain challenges, some menu items may be served with some ingredients missing and others may be temporarily unavailable. “We apologise in advance to any customers impacted and thank you for your patience.” A spokesperson for McDonald’s said: “Like most retailers, we are currently experiencing pressures across our supply chain which, at times, may impact a small number of our menu items at certain restaurants. The report warned the price hike could see more people skipping meals as it predicted the average monthly groceries bill for a family of four could reach £439 in January next year, up from £396 in the same month this year.
