McDonald’s UK announced the addition of five new items to the menu, and these will be available starting next week. There will be big changes in the menu lineup this month, and customers will see new food items in restaurant outlets.
It was reported that the new menu will be launched on Wednesday, May 5. But while five items are coming, McDonald’s UK will also be pulling out five others on the menu list.
What’s coming at McDo UK
As per Express UK, one of the new additions is called the Bacon Clubhouse Double Burger. This is expected to become a favorite as it is filled with everything that people love. It consists of two beef patties, two slices of Beechwood smoked bacon, cheddar cheese, tomato, lettuce, onions, special sauce, and these are sandwiched in a bun.
There is also the Chicken Deluxe Sandwich that features two crunchy Chicken Selects topped with Emmental cheese, tomato relish, red onions, lettuce, and mayonnaise. These new sandwiches are available for £4.79 each.
Another food item to try at McDonald’s UK is the Cheese and Herb Melts. This was actually on the menu already and just making a comeback. This treat is made from mozzarella mixed with Emmental cheese and coated with breadcrumb infused with herbs.
The cheesy side is sold in a pack of five with tomato and herb sauce. It will be in stores for only £1.89. The last two new items are the McFlurry dessert featuring the Galaxy and Galaxy Caramel flavors that come with chocolate chunks and topped with either chocolate or caramel sauce. Both flavors are priced at £1.39.
Food items that will be taken down from the menu board
As mentioned earlier, the five new items are replacing five others, and the ones that will be taken off the menu include the Big Tasty and the Chicken BBQ Smokehouse burger sandwiches. Customers will also not see the McFlurry flavors - Cadbury Crème Egg and Cadbury Caramel flavors, anymore, Manchester Evening News reported.
Then again, it seems that the new items will not really be permanent on the menu as it was reported that they will only be available from May 5 until June 15 at any McDonald’s UK outlet. The removed items are also likely to return at some point in the future as well.
