After being told he couldn't have any chicken nuggets for breakfast at 4.05am, the man became irrated and did four laps of the drive thru in Sydney.

When police turned up, he was still outside the takeaway giant waiting for his hash browns and when he was breathalysed he was found to be three times over the drink drive limit.

He subsequently had his licence suspended and is set to appear at Hornsby Court at the end of the month, according to the Metro newspaper.

McDonald's was forced to explain why nuggets aren't served in the morning and in a statement they said: ''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.

''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.''
