McDonald’s Rolls Out Limited World Menu in UK With Eight International Items

Early reviews praise flavors, with questions over value and serving consistency.

Overview

  • The six-week promotion went live on October 22 across UK restaurants, with published prices such as £7.69 for the Maple BBQ & Bacon Double Quarter Pounder and £6.29 for the Pineapple McSpicy.
  • The lineup pulls items from Canada, Australia, Japan, Poland, the UAE, Malaysia and Indonesia, including Garlic & Black Pepper McNuggets, McShaker Fries, Mac & Cheese Triangles, Choco Caramel Pie, Pretzel McFlurries and a Sakura x Sprite drink.
  • Initial reactions are mixed, with strong opinions over the Pineapple McSpicy and varied feedback on the Polish-style shaker fries, while desserts like the Pretzel McFlurry drew praise.
  • A Liverpool Echo on-the-ground review reported the new items delivered on taste but flagged pricing, presentation and occasional temperature issues.
  • Most outlets report eight new items, though one article cited 17 additions, highlighting a discrepancy in coverage rather than a confirmed larger menu.
