McDonald's has confirmed a major shake-up to its delivery menu, removing several popular items including all Mini McFlurry variants, hamburgers, small fries, small soft drinks, small milkshakes, porridge, and salads. The changes take effect from Tuesday, July 14, across all McDelivery platforms including the McDonald's app, Deliveroo, Just Eat, and Uber Eats.
Items axed from McDelivery
The following items will no longer be available for delivery: Hamburger, Small Fries, Porridge, all Mini McFlurry variants, all Small Soft Drinks, all Small Milkshakes, Chicken Salad, Chicken & Bacon Salad, and Side Salad. However, these items will remain available for in-store dining and takeaway.
Reason for the changes
A McDonald's UK spokesperson told Metro: 'As part of our continued menu evolution, we regularly listen to customer feedback and review sales data. As a result, we've made the decision to remove certain items from our delivery menu. These changes will also help our teams to provide a better experience, focusing on the products we know our customers love ordering most via delivery. While these menu items will still be available in restaurants, we understand the change to delivery may be disappointing for some; however, every menu decision is carefully considered.'
Customer reactions
Online, customers expressed disappointment. Instagram user @lucedickson commented: 'I love the mini McFlurry; the normal one is too much.' Another user, @pm190283, lamented the loss of the hamburger: 'Awesome, so you will now pay for a cheeseburger and remove the cheese, but no discount for not having cheese anymore.' Some accused McDonald's of being 'crafty,' with @tdrury9423 stating: 'This is very crafty! Means you have to buy a higher-priced item off the menu to get a delivery now.'
New menu additions
Alongside the removals, McDonald's is introducing new limited-edition items from July 14, including a Hot Honey range: Hot Honey Dip, Hot Honey Sausage & Egg McMuffin, Hot Honey McCrispy, and Mozzarella Dippers. Other new items include Ranch Dip, Korean BBQ, and a Bacon Big Arch. The Cornetto McFlurry returns after 17 years, available in Clasico (chocolate sauce and chocolate Cornetto cone pieces) and Strawberry (strawberry sauce and strawberry Cornetto cone pieces) variants.
