McDonald’s launches new menu shakeup TODAY adding seven items including ‘unreal’ never-before-seen frappe

McDONALD'S is launching its latest menu shakeup today including a never-before-seen frappe.

The fast food giant is adding a total of seven new items to its main offering, including returning favourites.

The new and returning items will be landing on menus across the UK and Ireland from 11am today when the breakfast menu ends.

News of the menu shakeup has taken Maccies fans by storm, all itching to get their hands on the additions.

Among the range is the brand new Lotus Biscoff Frappe which is set to be a big hit with fans of the iconic biscuit.

Taking to social media one person said: "OMG that looks unreal."

While a second fan commented: "I love Biscoff I am so excited for this one."

Another added: "Lotus Biscoff Frappe, let's go!"

The popular biscuit will also be featured in the form of a McFlurry, which made its debut last year.

Among the beloved items making their way back to menus is the Chicken Big Mac.

Also returning to its offering are Cheese and Herb Melts.

Fans of the iconic Quarter Pounder burger will once again be able to give the deluxe version a go too.

Not only that but the Galaxy Caramel Pie which first hit menus last December is also back, as well as the Galaxy Chocolate McFlurry.

If you want to try these additions then don't hang around because they will only be on menus for around six weeks.

The Biscoff Frappe costs £2.99 and has a vanilla flavour base, blended with ice and Biscoff crumb.

It's then topped with caramel-flavoured cream and a crumb dusting.

Meanwhile, the Biscoff McFlurry, which went down a treat when it launched last June, is also back.

It costs £1.99 and features a Biscoff crumb swirled onto the soft-serve ice cream.

Coming back for a fourth time is the sell-out Chicken Big Mac which has proven a huge hit with fans since it first debuted in 2022.

It's a twist on the classic Maccies Big Mac with its triple-layered bun, two chicken patties, a slice of cheese, lettuce, pickles - and of course the Big Mac sauce.

The burger costs £4.69 for a single and £6.49 for a meal.

Elsewhere the new Cheese and Herb melts are made from a blend of Emmental and mozzarella cheese in a herb-infused breadcrumb with a tomato dip.

Cheese lovers can get a pack of five for £2.89 or a sharebox for £7.09.

The Quarter Pounder Deluxe - priced at £4.89 - contains a 100% beef patty with mustard, ketchup, onion, lettuce, mayonnaise, tomato, and pickles.

It's then topped with two cheese slices and served in a toasted sesame seed-topped bun or make it a double with an extra beef patty.

Or you can get a Quarter Deluxe medium meal for £6.59 including fries and a drink.

After launching as part of the winter menu last year, the Galaxy Caramel Pie is back.

It's a Galaxy-flavoured caramel sauce encased in a crispy chocolate pastry and costs £1.99.

The treat is accompanied by the Galaxy McFlurry which also costs £1.99.

It is made up of soft dairy ice cream swirled with chocolate drops topped with chocolate sauce.

What's coming off the menu?

How to save money at McDonald's

You might not think it, but you can end up being charged more solely based on the McDonald's restaurant you choose.

Research by The Sun found a Big Mac meal can be up to 30p cheaper at restaurants just two miles apart from each other.

Meanwhile, you can pick up a Big Mac and fries for just £2.99 by filling in a feedback survey found on any old McDonald's receipt.

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.

Make sure you check out all the various apps and platforms if you're ordering McDonald's to your home too.

Our research found some can charge up to £1.20 more than others.

How do I find my nearest McDonald's?

If you're planning on taking a trip to McDonald's, you'll want to know where your nearest branch is.

The chain has a restaurant locator tool on its website you can use to find your nearest one - and check what time it opens.

Bear in mind that McDonald's serves breakfast every day until 11am.

After that, the menu switches to the normal menu serving meals such as burgers, chicken nuggets and more.

Meanwhile, here are five items lost forever from McDonald’s menu as fans demand their return amid breakfast bagel hopes.

Plus, here's what we thought of the Biscoff McFlurry last time it hit menus.
