McDonald's is bringing back ‘10/10' axed item and three other fan-favourites
It's that time of the month again folks, new Maccies menu time and diehard fans will be pleased with this one.
That's because the fast food chain is bringing back not one, not two, but FOUR fan-favourite items to the UK from May 7 — including one that customers petitioned for and hailed '10/10', 'legendary' and 'fantastic'.
We're talking of course about the Biscoff McFlurry, which was previously axed from the menu in April 2024.
The sweet treat features the classic vanilla soft serve, swirled with a Biscoff biscuit crumb and costs £1.69 for a mini and £2.29 for a regular.
Along with the McFlurry, the Biscoff Frappe is also making a comeback (£3.09), which is an iced drink with a vanilla flavour base. The base is blended with ice and Biscoff crumbs, topped with a caramel flavoured cream and dusted with more biscuit pieces.
If you'd prefer a fruity drink, don't worry as McDonald's has you covered with this too. The chain is launching a brand new Frozen Cherry Lemonade, which they claim is the 'perfect refreshing drink to take on a sunny stroll with'.
The beverage is made with 'tangy' frozen lemonade and has a sweet cherry-flavoured swirl, creating a vibrant two-tone effect, and is priced at £2.99.
It's not all sweet stuff though, as you might have already heard the McSpicy x Frank's RedHot is making an epic comeback – this is Maccies' spiciest burger ever and is a chicken burger with a crispy coating, topped with lettuce, Emmental cheese, jalapeños, slivered onions and Frank's RedHot Mayo.
For those who love a bit of spice, the mayo is also going to be available to order on its own as a dip for the first time ever, so you can turn up the heat with your favourite burger or McNuggets.
And finally beef burger lovers can rejoice as the Steakhouse Stack is also returning from May 7. The stack features two beef patties, cheddar cheese, crispy onions, red onions, lettuce and a savoury black peppercorn sauce, all served in a toasted, glazed sesame bun.
All of these will be limited-edition treats, so you'll want to try them while you can, as they'll likely only be around for about six weeks. More Trending
And as the menu switches over, we'll be saying goodbye to a few of the current items from May 6 including the Mars McFlurry, White Chocolate and Raspberry Pie, the McCrispy BBQ Smokehouse and the beloved Philly Cheese Stack.
The recent Minecraft Meal (which many felt was like an 'adult Happy Meal'), will also be leaving the menu on May 6.

However, it's not all bad news as a few things will be staying put, including the Katsu Chicken wrap and the Cheesy Garlic Bread Dippers.

McDonald's Snack Wrap is officially returning. Here's when.
Snacktime is nigh at the Golden Arches. On June 3, McDonald's announced exactly when the Snack Wrap will return to partipating restaurants nationwide: July 10. And, thankfully, it's not a limited-time offer, either — it's here for good. The Snack Wrap, which has been off menus for almost a decade, features one of the chain's new McCrispy Strips — a chicken strip made with all-white meat — and is topped with shredded lettuce and shredded cheese, wrapped in a flour tortilla. This go-round, the Snack Wrap comes in two flavors: Spicy, which McDonald's says 'brings the heat with a habanero kick' reminiscent of its Spicy McCrispy sandwich; and Ranch, which 'delivers a satisfying burst of cool ranch goodness,' according to the brand, along with hints of garlic and onion. Customers can get the Snack Wrap on its own or as a combo meal, which will come with two wraps, a medium fries and your drink of choice. It's been a long journey for Mickey D's devotees: On Dec. 5, Joe Erlinger, president of McDonald's USA, first revealed that the Snack Wrap was on its way back while discussing the new McValue menu. 'The Snack Wrap will be back in 2025,' Erlinger said at the time, declining to reveal the exact date. 'It has a cult following, I get so many emails into my inbox about this product.' Then, on April 15, the chain teased the official release date: 'snack wraps 0x.14.2025,' it posted on X, without specifying the month. Now, for the official rollout, McDonald's is leaning into the fact that for years, fans have inundated the chain with pleas to reinstate the item after it was kicked off menus in 2016. A petition started in 2021 in its honor garnered over 17,000 signatures, and fans resorted to posting TikToks and making dedicated Instagram accounts devoted to bringing it back. While the chicken-craving masses waited for the Snack Wrap's return, other fast-food chains have dropped their own versions: In March 2023, Wendy's introduced its Grilled Chicken Ranch Wrap; in July 2023, Taco Bell reintroduced its Crispy Chicken Taco for a limited time; and in August 2023, Burger King launched BK Royal Crispy Wraps for a limited time, too.

McDonald's unveils bold new burger that's ‘even better than a Big Mac'
The new burger is bigger than the iconic Big Mac (Picture: Jeff Gilbert/ McDonald's fans in the UK, our time has finally come – we're getting something new and exciting before McDonald's US does. Yes, it might be petty, but for too long we've had to watch as fast food fans across the pond enjoyed things that we could only dream of ordering like McGriddles and Frozen Coca-Cola. And even though they still have breakfast bagels and we don't, us Brits can have the last laugh as McDonald's UK has just announced that a brand new menu item is coming – one that's not available in the States yet. Known as The Big Arch, the beast of a burger has been hailed as having 'maximum McDonald's flavour' and is even bigger and wider in size than the iconic Big Mac, featuring not one but two Quarter Pounder beef patties. It's already available in several countries including Canada, France and Portugal and will be joining the menu in the UK from June 18. And what's even more exciting is that once it arrives it'll be here to stay as a permanent menu item. The new menu item has its own exclusive sauce (Picture: McDonald's) What's in the new McDonald's Big Arch burger? The star of the show with this burger is the Big Arch sauce, which features McDonald's ketchup, mustard and pickle juice. There's also some pepper in there and a few other ingredients, though the others are being kept top secret. The signature sauce is squeezed over the top and bottom halves of a new toasted sesame and poppy seed bun, which is then loaded with crispy onions on one side and slivered raw onions on the other, before shredded lettuce and pickles are added too. A slice of white cheddar and a Quarter Pounder patty is placed on each half, with one side being topped with a third and final slice of cheese. This sandwiches nicely between the two beef patties as the box is closed and the two sides of the burger come together to create the Big Arch. Thomas O'Neill, head of menu at McDonald's UK and Ireland claims the new burger is one of the 'biggest things [McDonald's] will launch in a generation'. He said: 'The Big Arch is going to take us into the next level of great beef burgers. 'It's designed to do two things, it's designed to satisfy big McDonald's hunger like nothing else on our menu and it's also designed to taste amazing. 'A new iconic burger needs an equally iconic sauce. The sauce is brand new, it's designed to look and taste and feel like McDonald's. If you close your eyes and try this product, it couldn't be from anybody else but us. 'It's big, bold, and packed with serious deliciousness.' Metro got an early first taste of the new burger at McDonald's HQ (Picture: Courtney Pochin) What does the Big Arch taste like? I headed down to McDonald's HQ in East Finchley for an exclusive first try of the Big Arch and it didn't disappoint. Dare I say it, I actually think it's better than a Big Mac. For me, the flavours are more interesting. As Thomas said, the sauce is so quintessentially McDonald's in flavour. The combination of the slightly sweet ketchup, tangy pickle juice and punchy mustard is comfortingly familiar and yet somehow manages to taste new at the same time. I'm going to need them to bottle and sell this immediately, or at the very least let me order a pot of it to dunk my fries into. The Quarter Pounder patties give the whole thing a very meaty flavour, which is stronger than what you'd get with standard McDonald's burgers, and there's a very satisfying crunch from the crispy onions that elevates the overall eating experience. If I had to give it a rating out of 10, I'd give it a nine. I'm a big fan of it as far as McDonald's burgers go, but it doesn't get full marks as there's one big issue with it… it's incredibly messy. She rated it a 9/10 (Picture: Courtney Pochin) Getting it into the box was a challenge for staff and getting it out was just as difficult for me. Things took a turn for the worse when I tried to actually eat it as there's so much sauce inside, everything slips and slides about on the bun as you take a bite. I fashioned a bib out of napkins, but still ended up with dollops of sauce, bits of lettuce and onions all over me. Eventually, I gave in and asked for a knife and fork. It felt completely and utterly wrong, but it did make a world of difference. Let it be known that this certainly isn't something you'll want to grab at the drive-thru and eat in your car in a hurry. But even if you do end up wearing most of it, you certainly won't go hungry. It's so big, I only managed to finish half of it. For times when you're feeling ravenous and a Big Mac or a Double Cheeseburger just won't cut it, the Big Arch definitely will. Do you have a story to share?
