Two new burgers hitting the menu
There are two never-before-seen burgers hitting menus.
The Philly Cheese Stack is a Maccies take on the classic Philly Cheese Steak sandwich.
It’s made up of two beef patties topped with a cheese sauce, two cheese slices, both grilled and crispy onions, pickles and is served in a toasted bun.
The McCrispy BBQ Smokehouse is a fresh twist on the fancy chicken burger which hit menus for the first time in 2022.
It contains a crispy chicken breast fillet with a smoky BBQ sauce, cheddar cheese, red onion, and lettuce, all in a fancy looking sourdough-style sesame-topped bun.

How can I save on my McDonald’s order?
There are plenty of ways you can save on your next trip to McDonald’s.
You should choose your branch wisely – menu prices can vary across different restaurants just a couple of miles apart.
We’ve seen Big Mac meals up to 30p cheaper before, which added up over the course of a year could save you a fair few pounds.
You can also get freebies on your birthday if you’ve got the My McDonald’s app.
Remember to log your date of birth on the app though, otherwise, you’ll miss out.
You can get a Big Mac and fries for just £1.99 as well if you fill out the quick feedback survey following your last visit.
All you’ll need is your receipt which should have been issued no more than 60 days after your visit.
A 12-digit code will be printed on the proof of purchase and then you can enter the McDonald’s Food for Thought website to fill out a quick survey.

Determined woman’s hunt for McDonald’s Halloween Squishmallows

More fan reviews on McDonald’s new Philly Cheese Stack
Some McDonald’s fans are already loving the new Philly Cheese Stack, but one X (formerly Twitter) user says the steak “wasn’t anything special”.
The fan posted on X: “Just tried the new Philly Cheesesteak Stack from McDonald’s & it was pretty good. The cheese is gooey & melted nicely, onions & peppers added a nice crunch. Maybe it was just mine but the Steak wasn’t anything special, still good tho.”
Another fan suggested that the “steak” part of the Philly Cheese Stack, seemingly inspired by popular Philadelphia sandwich Philly cheesesteak, is the same beef patty used in other McDonald’s promotions.
“They’re just the standard 6:1 patty’s used for a lot of promos which is probs why it wasn’t anything special,” the fan wrote on X. “That’s why they’ve just called it the Philly cheese stack and not Philly cheesesteak though.”
Another fan gave the burger a score of “10/10”.
