  • Plus, get your hands on the secretly iconic Espresso Milkshake and the mythical Apple Pie Mini McFlurry®.
  • An iconic sauce in a pot? Absolutely! Big Mac® Sauce now available as a dip?!

Ever stacked a chicken patty inside a cheeseburger? 👀 How about dipping an Apple Pie in a McFlurry®? The Secret Menu has been whispered about for years but has never been made official, until NOW! You hacked; we listened. For the FIRST TIME EVER, McDonald’s brand-new Secret Menu is landing in all UK&I restaurants from Monday, 5th January, for a limited time only, so don’t miss out. 😎 TELL EVERYONE! 🤫

Fans of the Cheeseburger and the Filet-O-Fish® rejoice! McDonald’s is breaking new ground in the UK&I as it serves up a surprisingly tasty new combo with fish meeting beef in one delicious duo! The Surf N’ Turf 🐟 🍔consists of two 100% British & Irish beef patties layered with cheese, onions, pickles, mustard, and a dollop of tomato ketchup - paired with a MSC certified crispy white Alaskan Pollock fish filet patty. YUM!

The ultimate McDonald’s mash-up has arrived, bringing two iconic flavours into one burger. The Chicken Cheeseburger 🐔🍔 sees a 100% British & Irish beef patty join a crispy coated chicken patty, with a slice of cheese, onions, mustard, and a dollop of tomato ketchup. Don’t knock it until you try it!

The ORIGINAL Secret Menu item is BACK by popular demand – reintroducing the Chicken Big Mac®🐔🍔! Inside a perfectly toasted bun, you’ll find two chicken patties, a slice of cheese, lettuce, pickles, and of course the unbeatable Big Mac sauce. What’s not to love?

And straight from the legendary burger, you can now get the rich and creamy Big Mac® Sauce🌟 as a dip – perfect for Fries or McNuggets®👀

The ultimate blend…
A secretly iconic drink– introducing the brand-new Espresso Milkshake ☕🥤. This DIY-style option consists of two products handed to you separately: a thick vanilla milkshake and a shot of rich espresso, served side by side, allowing you to pour, mix and enjoy your own creation.

And for dessert…
Our final Secret Menu item is a match made in dessert heaven – introducing the mythical Apple Pie Mini McFlurry® 🍏🥧. This combination is made up of two separate items, served individually: soft dairy ice cream swirled with caramel sauce, paired with the iconic warm Apple Pie, ready for dipping. An unofficial fan hack, now recognised as an officially endorsed combo.

Ben Fox, Senior Vice President, Chief Marketing Officer, McDonald’s UK & Ireland, said: We’re really happy to now make The Secret Menu official in the UK&I, turning fan-favourite hacks into reality. Some of these mash ups shouldn’t work, but they are weirdly good and need to be tried to be believed. Others are more natural combinations that are simply delicious!  This limited-time lineup celebrates the creativity of our customers that we see every day on social media.

New arrivals, returning favourites, and a few items sticking around a little longer - here’s what’s also on the January menu…

  • Big Arch® - Two 100% British and Irish beef patties, white cheddar cheese slices, crispy and slivered onions, lettuce, pickles and the Big Arch sauce delivering that distinctive McDonald’s taste all in a poppy & sesame seed bun.
  • The Fajita Chicken One - Creamy fajita sauce, tomato salsa, onions, cheese and lettuce in a soft, toasted tortilla wrap with a choice of crispy or grilled chicken.
  • Chilli Cheese Bites - Four cheese with chilli pieces in a crunchy batter coating, served with a rich tomato dip.
  • Galaxy Smooth Caramel McFlurry® - Soft dairy ice cream swirled with Galaxy Chocolate drops and topped with a Galaxy Caramel sauce.

Kick off the New Year with a bang! The brand-new Secret Menu is arriving as part of McDonald’s wider January lineup, but only for a limited time, so hurry! Head to your local restaurant and try our first ever official UK&I McDonald’s hacks before they’re gone.
