McDonald's announces big change to menu - bringing back six fan favourites
McDonald's lovers can rejoice, as the fast food chain has announced that some seriously tasty fan favourites are set to return to the menus at their UK and Ireland restaurants on Wednesday, February 15 for a limited time.
These big menu changes will see the McSpicy return as a permanent fixture, and it won't be alone as the iconic Grand Big Mac and Grand Big Mac with Bacon are back as well.
These popular burgers are always a hit with Maccies customers and are made with two beef patties, a slice of cheese, lettuce, onion and pickles and Big Mac sauce in a sesame-topped bun - and, if you like it even grander, you can add bacon.
If that weren't enough, Chilli Cheese bites, will also be returning and those with a major sweet tooth will be pleased to hear that Galaxy Chocolate McFlurry and Galaxy Caramel McFlurry will be available to buy as well.
But you'll need to be speedy if you want to get your hands on these as they'll only be around for a limited six-week period starting tomorrow (Feb 15).

And if you just can't get enough of the heat, the Chilli Cheese bites, which first appeared in McDonald's in 2021, will be back with a portion of four chilli cheese bites in batter and a tomato dip priced at £2.29 or £6.29 for a sharebox version.
When you've had enough of all the spiciness, you can cool off with the Galaxy chocolate and Galaxy Caramel McFlurry, made with soft dairy ice cream, swirled with pieces of Galaxy chocolate and topped with either Galaxy chocolate sauce or a Galaxy caramel sauce, these are £1.99 for Regular or £1.49 for Mini.
This announcement sees the McSpicy become the second chicken burger to find a permanent home on the Maccies menu in the past year, after the McCrispy was also added to the year-round menu in October.
The burger features a spicy chicken breast fillet topped with lettuce and mayo between toasted sesame seed bun, and was last featured on the menu in 2022 when it had a limited run from April 27 until June 6.
In honour of its permanent return, rapper AJ Tracey hung out with his friends at McDonald's Ladbroke Grove restaurant and made his very own McSpicy in full McDonald's uniform.
Commenting on the return of McSpicy, AJ said: "As someone from the Caribbean, for me, McSpicy is the first actually spicy burger. It's something we embrace and we love, so it's just really nice to be honest. McSpicy is here to stay permanently!"
