Out with the old

Chicken Big Mac

When the new Chicken Big Mac debuted on February 2, it was wildly popular. McDonald's ran out of the delectable treats just 10 days after it was introduced and briefly withdrew it from the menu. The sandwich alone cost £4.09, or £5.59 for a medium meal with chips and a drink.

Double Big Mac

The double Big Mac, which has four patties instead of the standard two, is also no longer available in restaurants. The burger was £4.39 on its own, or £5.69 for a medium lunch.

Mozzarella dips

Due to a recent menu change, mozzarella dippers are no longer available to order. A box of three mozzarella dippers costs £1.89, while a sharing box containing nine dippers costs £5.09.

Galaxy McFlurry

Galaxy chocolate and salted caramel McFlurries are also the items that have been axed from the menu this time. The price of a tiny Galaxy or Salted Galaxy McFlurry was 99p, while the normal one was £1.49.

In with the new

Big Tasty

The Big Tasty, which was previously available on a limited-edition McDonald's menu last summer, is one of them. It's created with 100% British and Irish beef, two pieces of Emmental cheese, bacon, lettuce, crispy onions, and a generous helping of Big Tasty BBQ sauce. For a medium meal, the original Big Tasty burger costs £6.39, while a single burger costs £4.89.

Homestyle Crispy Chicken

The Crispy Chicken Burger will also be available on the new menu. It comes with a crispy chicken breast fillet, caramelised onion, seasonal lettuce, bacon, red onions, a slice of cheddar cheese, and poppy and sesame seed bread. For £4.39, you can have the burger in a bag.

Chilli Cheese Bites

Chilli Cheese Bites, which cost £1.99 for five pieces, are also back on the menu at McDonald's. Spicy melted cheese slices in a crispy batter are paired with a luscious tomato dip.

Creme Egg McFlurry

Finally, McDonald’s has reintroduced their Creme Egg McFlurry, as is customary around Easter. A regular McFlurry costs £1.39, while a little McFlurry costs 99p.
