THE MAIN GOODS 🍔

Big Rösti – from Germany

Available 22^nd September – 19^th October

A 100% British & Irish beef patty layered with a crispy potato rosti, streaky bacon, a cheese slice, creamy baconnaise and cheese sauce, all served in a toasted glazed sesame-topped bun. Big by name and seriously indulgent by nature.

Maple & Cheddar Chicken – from Canada

Available 22^nd September – 19^th October

A 100% chicken breast fillet in a crispy, crunchy coating, topped with cheddar cheese, onions two ways, lettuce and tomato, finished with mustard maple sauce and citrus mayo, all served in a toasted poppy and sesame seed bun. The twist of sweet and savoury maple makes gives the burger an unapologetically Canadian hit of flavour in every bite.

THE STOLEN SIDES 🍟

Mac & Cheese Triangles – from the UAE

Available 22^nd September – 16^th November

Following its hugely successful appearance in last year’s World Menu Heist, the Mac & Cheese Triangles are back. Crispy golden triangles of macaroni pasta filled with a rich cheddar cheese sauce and served with a classic Tomato Ketchup dip; they bring serious comfort-food credentials to the line-up.

Paprika McShaker® Fries – from The Netherlands

Available 22^nd September – 16^th November

McDonald’s iconic fries get the McShaker® treatment, served with a smoky paprika

seasoning sachet and shaker bag. Simply tip in the seasoning, shake it up and enjoy a bold, irresistibly moreish paprika flavour in every bite.

THE SWEET SCORE: 🍦

S’mores McFlurry® – from Canada

Available 22^nd September – 16^th November

Soft dairy ice cream swirled with marshmallows & biscuit crumb and topped with chocolate sauce. A seriously sweet scoop worth stealing.

THE SWIPED SAUCE 🌶️

Szechuan Sauce – from China

Available 22^nd September – 16^th November

A sweet and savoury Asian-inspired sauce with a mild Szechuan pepper heat, perfect for dipping, dunking and adding an extra hit of flavour to your order.

THE LIQUID LOOT 🥤

Available 22^nd September – 19^th October

A refreshing mix of Sprite® Zero and guava-flavoured syrup, served over ice, bringing a fruity tropical twist to the World Menu Heist line-up.

THE DAWN RAID (FOR THE FIRST TIME)… 🍳

Chicken & Egg McMuffin® – from Australia

Available 22^nd September – 16^th November

Crispy coated chicken, egg, cool mayo and a cheese slice, all served in a toasted English muffin. Australia’s contribution to the heist gives the classic McDonald’s breakfast an unexpected chicken upgrade.

Chicken & Bacon McMuffin® – from Australia

Available 22^nd September – 16^th November

Or if no breakfast is complete without bacon, why not try this breakfast must-have instead? Crispy coated chicken, bacon, cool mayo, and a cheese slice in a toasted English muffin: your ultimate undercover breakfast secret agent.

But, as with any good heist, the haul won’t hang around forever. World Menu Heist 2.0 launches in McDonald’s restaurants across the UK and Ireland from Tuesday 22^nd September.

That’s all…for now, at least. 👀
