Every new item launching at McDonald's as menu shakeup sees two popular items axed

There are five new items launching at McDonalds this month, but fast-food lovers will be sad to see two popular burgers wave goodbye.

Everyone loves a new addition to the McDonald's menu.

While our much-loved staples (we see you Big Mac and chicken nuggets) will always remain top-tier choices, a bit of variety is always welcomed.

An all-day breakfast menu would also be greeted with an enormous hug, but you can't have it all I guess.

But what goes on the menu must come off, and foodies will be sad to see the departure of two fan-favourite burgers, as well as two other popular items.

From the 18 June, the brand new Big Arch burger will be available at all McDonald's restaurants around the UK.

It contains two beef patties, topped with white cheddar cheese slices, crispy onions, fresh onions, shredded lettuce, crunchy pickles, and Big Arch sauce.

Thomas O’Neill, head of menu at McDonald’s UK & Ireland, said: “A new iconic burger needs an equally iconic sauce, and we’ve taken it up a notch with the Big Arch.

"This isn’t just about size, it’s about flavour."

And while prices will vary around the country, the cost of the burger is £7.99 on its own, or £9.99 for a medium meal.

O'Neill added: "Every bite is crafted to hit the spot to satisfy serious McDonald’s hunger. Big, bold, and packed with serious deliciousness."

Halloumi fries will also be making a return to menus as of 18 June, having first been released in 2022, and proved to be a massive success.

Alongside this, the Toffee Crisp McFlurry, Cheesy McCrispy and Toffee Apple Pie, will also all be making a comeback.

The Toffee Crisp McFlurry costs £2.39, while the Cheesy McCrispy costs £6.69 on its own or £8.49 for a medium meal.

A box of four halloumi fries will set you back £2.99, while the larger sharebox will cost £7.59.

However, the much-loved Steakhouse Stack, and McSpicy x Frank's RedHot, are getting axed as of 17 June.

As well as this, McDonald's have chosen to remove their Cheesy Garlic Bread Dippers (a CRIME), and the Lotus Biscoff McFlurry.

But consumers were quick to notice the price increase of some returning items.

The Cheesy McCrispy costed £5.99 as a single item when last on sale, in January, but is now priced at £6.69 - which is a 70p increase.

Meanwhile, Halloumi fries have shot up by 20p since they last appeared on UK menus.
