McDonald’s UK To Cut Most Vegetarian Items Next Week, Leaving Only McPlant

The company cites weak demand, pledging new plant‑based options after reviewing sales and feedback.

Overview

  • From February 3, the UK menu will drop Veggie Dippers, Veggie Dipper Happy Meals, Spicy Veggie Wraps and the Vegetable Deluxe.
  • McPlant will remain as the sole plant‑based main on the core UK menu, which McDonald’s says continues to perform well.
  • McDonald’s says sales data showed the cut items, particularly Veggie Dippers, lacked the appeal of the McPlant.
  • The chain says it is learning from other markets and exploring future vegetarian and vegan offerings.
  • The changes coincide with promotional moves reported by outlets, including the return of the Chicken Big Mac, new Pizza Mozzarella Dippers and a Friends tie‑in launching February 3.
