McDonald’s to launch five new menu items this month – including returning favourite and ‘iconic’ burger
MCDONALD’S is launching five new menu items within days – including a returning favourite.
The fast food chain is set to add a new burger, called the Big Arch, and four other menu items from June 18.
The Toffee Crisp McFlurry, Cheesy McCrispy and Toffee Apple Pie will be returning.
Halloumi Fries, which first launched in 2022, will also be back on menus later this month and they are usually popular too.
As we revealed yesterday on Monday, the new Big Arch burger, costs £7.99 or £9.99 for a medium meal.
We thought it tasted better than a Big Mac and is has a brand-new sauce.
The Toffee Crisp McFlurry costs £2.39, while the Cheesy McCrispy costs £6.69 on its own or £8.49 for a medium meal.
While four-piece box of Halloumi Fries costs £2.99 while a larger sharebox costs £7.59. Both come with sweet chilli dip sauce.
Meanwhile, the Toffee Apple Pie, featuring crispy pastry filled with rich toffee sauce, is on sale for £2.09.
The Katsu Wraps, which come with grilled or crispy chicken and launched for the first time in January, are also staying on menus from June 18.
Shoppers can pick up the wrap for £3.49 by itself or £2.29 on Wednesdays and Saturdays.
Customers can also pick it up as part of a medium meal for £5.29.
It’s worth bearing in mind, prices for all the menu items may vary from restaurant to restaurant.
We have asked McDonald’s for calorie information for all the new menu items and will update this story when we have heard back.
Research by The Sun has also found that some of the returning items have shot up in price since they were last on menus.
The Toffee Apple Pie costed £1.99 when last on sale in 2023, but is now £2.09 – 10p more expensive.
The Cheesy McCrispy costed £5.99 as a single item when last on sale, in January, but is now priced at £6.69 – 70p more.
Meanwhile, the Halloumi Fries have gone up in price by 20p since they were last on menus.
A pack of four is now £2.99 compared to £2.79 last May while a larger pack is now £7.59, up from £7.39.
Of course, what goes on must come off and a number of Maccie’s bites will be coming off menus to make way for the new ones.

The update from McDonald’s today comes after the fast food chain had customers fuming over a discontinued item.
It confirmed it axed its Chicken Bacon Caesar Wrap from menus in May as part of a “rotation” of its wrap offering.
The wrap, which combined chicken breast strips, crispy onions, rashers of bacon and lettuce, was first launched in summer 2023.
How to save money at McDonald’s
Research by The Sun found a Big Mac meal can be up to 30% cheaper at restaurants just two miles apart from each other.
You can pick up a Big Mac and fries for just £2.99 at any time by filling in a feedback survey found on McDonald’s receipts.
The receipt should come with a 12-digit code which you can enter into the Food for Thought website alongside your submitted survey.
You’ll then receive a five-digit code which is your voucher for the £2.99 offer.
There are some deals and offers you can only get if you have the My McDonald’s app, so it’s worth signing up to get money off your meals.
The MyMcDonald’s app can be downloaded on iPhone and Android phones and is quick to set up.
You can also bag freebies and discounts on your birthday if you’re a My McDonald’s app user.
