The Steakhouse Stack burger, which fans have been begging to return since it was axed in March 2023, is also back.

Foodies will no longer be able to get their hands on the Big and Cheesy or Chicken Big Mac from early next month.
Meanwhile, the Cheese Melt Dippers and two McFlurry flavours will be dropped.

- The Big & Cheesy £5.49 – (single) / £7.29 (meal)

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.
