McMorning in D.C.: Breakfast on Track at Union Station
You can’t go wrong with a McDonald’s breakfast when travelling on an early Amtrak, and the small McDonald’s at Washington, D.C.’s Union Station didn’t disappoint when we visited at 6:30am on the morning of Memorial Day, Monday May 26, 2025.
Unusually, the McDonald’s didn’t have electronic kiosks but we were served quickly by the cashier. We ordered:
🥯 Steak, Egg & Cheese Bagel and hash brown = $10.09
☕️ Premium Roast coffee upcharge = $.40
🍔 Sausage & Egg McMuffin and hash brown = $8.69
➕ Extra sausage = $2.19
🍊 Orange juice upcharge = $1.50
😢 Tax = $2.29
💰 Total = $25.16
A similar order, at Boston’s North Station last summer, cost us $20.40, once again showing the rising cost of eating at McDonald’s. Despite this we enjoyed our food as we travelled south from D.C., bound for a few days at Williamsburg in Virginia.
On our last visit to D.C., in summer 2017, our train suffered a severe delay and we had a long wait at the station, so we got our supper from this McDonald’s. We can say that the breakfast was much better!
