McDonald's is axing 5 items from its menu today including popular burger
McDonald's is axing five menu items today to make room for new products. The fast food chain is getting rid of its Minecraft movie meal which comes with either a Big Mac, nine McNuggets or four Veggie Dippers, plus a side and drink.
You also get an exclusive collectable toy of your favourite McDonald's characters, blockified. The Minecraft movie meal is available in medium or large size.
Maccies is also getting rid of its Apple Cake McFlurry today, which features dairy ice cream swirled with apple and shortcake pieces, and finished with a sour apple sauce.
Also disappearing is the Philly Cheese Stack and McCrispy BBQ Smokehouse. If you haven't yet tried these burgers, the Philly Cheese Stack is made of two beef patties with a cheese sauce, cheese slices, grilled and crispy onions and pickles served in a toasted bun.
The McCrispy BBQ Smokehouse consists of chicken breast fillet in a crispy, crunchy coating with a smoky BBQ sauce, cheddar cheese, red onion, lettuce, all in a delicious sourdough-style sesame topped bun.
Finally, today is your last day to try the Raspberry and White Chocolate Pie. This features a crispy pink pastry filled with a smooth white chocolate ganache and a raspberry compote.
But it isn't all bad news - as McDonald's is making room for new menu items, which are landing tomorrow. Maccies is launching a new Frozen Cherry Lemonade on May 7, which is described as a tangy frozen lemonade with a sweet cherry flavoured swirl.
The McSpicy X Frank's RedHot is also making its grand return. The McSpicy X Frank's RedHot contains a chicken breast in a hot and crispy coating, topped with lettuce, cheese made with Emmental, jalapenos, slivered onions, and Frank's RedHot Mayo.
Spice fans will also be able to buy a separate Frank's RedHot Mayo dip for the first time ever. McDonald's fans will also be pleased to hear that the Steakhouse Stack is rejoining the menu from May 7. McDonald's is bringing back its Biscoff McFlurry and Biscoff Frappe.
Separately, McDonald's has also confirmed it is launching two new breakfast items next week as part of a major shake-up. The fast food chain is trialling a new Breakfast Savers Menu across the north of England.
It includes a brand new Sausage Sandwich and a savers version of the popular Bacon Roll. Some selected McDonald's restaurants across the North will also offer a new Breakfast Bundle Deal which comes with a Saver Bacon Roll or Sausage Sandwich, plus a drink.
The new Breakfast Savers Menu will be trialled in 332 restaurants from May 7. It will also feature fan favourites such as the Cheesy Bacon Flatbread and Hash Browns.

'I went to the world's most beautiful McDonald's but the shine quickly wore off'
The world's most beautiful McDonald's has everything from chandeliers to Art Deco interiors and it's all over social media - but we wanted to see if it lives up to the hype When I'm on holiday, McDonald's isn't typically on the itinerary, unless I'm tight on time and trying to grab something quick and easy amidst sightseeing. However, on a recent city break to Porto the fast food restaurant was one of the top items on my list of must-visits, because the Portuguese city is home to what's been dubbed the 'world's most beautiful McDonald's'. I'd seen it all over my social media feeds, and knew I wanted to go and check it out to see if it lived up to the hype. After all, I was promised glitzy chandeliers, amazing Art Deco interiors, and a setting that wouldn't be out of place in a film set. The restaurant is located in a former café, and McDonald's kept most of the original features when it first opened its doors in the 1990s. (It's not quite as lively as the one that boasts a DJ until 4am). When I arrived at the McDonald's Imperial, things were already promising as the entrance alone feels quite grandiose. There's a huge statue of an eagle and a large brass sign reading 'McDonald's' as you walk up towards the door. Once inside, it was quite impressive to look at. The shimmering chandeliers and the huge Art Deco artwork on the wall behind the counter are pretty eye-catching, and like most of the tourists around me, I quickly whipped out my phone to film some of the interiors. However, the shine quickly wears off. The restaurant appears to be quite big when you walk in, but it's actually because the walls are covered in huge mirrors. The actual amount of seating available is quite limited. Rather than a film set, I felt more like we were in a theme park as we had to join the throng trying to get to the kiosks to order their food. We were lucky enough to bag ourselves a table, but I did see a few people circling for a while. I was concerned that we might end up waiting ages for food, but it all arrived fairly promptly. While the decor is beautiful, the furniture itself is just bog standard McDonald's; perfectly fine, but definitely felt a little jarring compared to the interiors. Unsurprisingly everyone is taking photos and videos, so it can feel a little chaotic as you try and get from counter to table, and we definitely felt that we were in a tourist spot. Still, it's not surprising that it's a hit with visitors as the eatery boasts a brilliant central location right by heaps of Porto's main attractions including the Livraria Lello (a beautiful bookshop that looks like something out of Harry Potter), the beautiful Sao Bento station, and the Douro River which is about a 15-minute walk away. (FYI: No doubt because of the crowds and central location, if you want to use the loos you'll need to buy food in order to get a toilet door code). One major perk of the whole experience for me was that while we don't have gluten-free meals in the UK (sort it out McDonald's please), I was genuinely excited to see that there was a full gluten-free menu on offer in Porto. That meant that for the first time since being diagnosed, I could actually have a Big Mac and it was absolutely glorious. (You'll just need to head to the counter for a member of staff to take the order as you can't order it yourself at the kiosk). While I'm not going to start chasing down every pretty McDonald's in the world, I've since been assured that if I head to Rome, I should add the Piazza Di Spagna restaurant on my list; apparently it has marble walls, fountains and statues. So I guess that's my next adventure sorted!

Exact date McDonald's Monopoly returns to restaurants in Scotland
Fans only have a few weeks to wait before the popular game return GAME ON Exact date McDonald's Monopoly returns to restaurants in Scotland Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) MCDONALD'S has announced its popular Monopoly game is returning to restaurants across Scotland. Customers only need to wait a few weeks as the fast food giant also revealed the exact date it's coming back. Sign up for Scottish Sun newsletter Sign up 3 McDonald's Monopoly is returning to restaurants across Scotland Credit: Alamy 3 Customers will be in with a chance of winning a number of prizes from cash to free food Credit: Getty The annual competition usually runs for around six weeks. It gives customers the chance to win a range of prizes including holidays, cash and free food. McDonald's has not yet revealed what is up for grabs this year. The competition will kick off on Wednesday, September 10. Those who wish to take part in the Monopoly game collect stickers from their food packaging that represent train stations or colour coordinated road names - much like the classic game. However, not all menu items are worth the same amount, and this determines how you redeem a prize. For example, instant win food prizes can be redeemed at any McDonald's branch by handing the token over at the counter when you order. You'll need to hand the game pieces over to a member of staff when you collect your meal. Also not all food items feature the peelable stickers. The race is on for customers to collect multiple stickers to try and gather together property sets that will put you in line to win some big prizes. McDonald's Spices Up Breakfast: Spicy McMuffin, New Sweets & Summer Meal Deals In the past, these have included a £2,000 Jet 2 Holiday and a £100 Virgin Experience Day. There are also digital peel game prizes which you need the McDonald's app to play. There's a QR code on stickers that you can scan to see if you have won a prize. Over the past few years, winners were given cash as well as vouchers on digital peel games. Last year, the following menu items came with stickers 0.4 & 0.5 Cold Cups Medium & Large Fries 3 & 5 Chicken Selects Philly Cheese Stack Chicken Big Mac Large Salad Tray Cheese Sharebox McPlant McSpicy McCrispy Mozzarella Dipper Bag 0.3 & 0.4 Blended Ice Galaxy McFlurry Twix McFlurry Deli Wraps Veggie Wraps If you do not want to visit a store to play you can also order online via UberEats. If you order the menu items above they should come with a stickers you can peel off and collect.
