McDonald's fans call new Big Arch burger 'very nice but messy'
Thomas O'Neill, Head of Menu at McDonald's UK&I, said: 'A new iconic burger needs an equally iconic sauce, and we've taken it up a notch with the Big Arch.
"This isn't just about size, it's about flavour. With double layers of beef, crispy onions, and the hero of the build, our signature sauce, every bite is crafted to hit the spot to satisfy serious McDonald's hunger. Big, bold, and packed with serious deliciousness.'
A post shared by McDonald's UK&I News (@mcdonaldsukinews)
Customers have had a few days to try the burger now, and it has had a generally positive response, albeit with some criticisms.
Many people have taken to Facebook and X (formerly known as Twitter) to share their thoughts on the new McDonald's burger.
Quite a few enjoyed the taste but found the burger quite messy to deal with.
On X, one person said: "Big Arch from @McDonaldsUK is possibly one of the best burgers they have done imo! however, it should come with the option of an adult sized bib to go with it, messy is an understatement, but worth it!"
Meanwhile, on the Snack Reviews Facebook group, another commented: "Very nice but very messy".

A third said: "It's very messy, the sauce is nice too," while another described it as "sloppy".
Quite a few people on the Facebook group compared it to the Big Mac, as one said: "So is this size the big mac used to be when shrinkflation wasn't a thing?"
Another posted: "Just looks like a big mac without the bun in the middle".

I apologised to everyone after.' Though he admits a nap on set helped him cope. Mark was married to Katie, who was 27 years his younger, from 2014 - 2020. They first crossed paths on Facebook in 2010. However, it wasn't until 2012 when sparks started to fly after Mark invited her to a celebrity special of the show.
