McDonald’s Menu Update 2025: 10 New & Returning Items Revealed—Limited-Time Deals You Can’t Miss

McDonald’s is shaking up its 2025 menu once again, adding wallet-friendly deals in the United States and unveiling headline-grabbing limited-time creations overseas. In the U.S., the Golden Arches has expanded its Extra Value Menu nationwide. Starting November 4, guests can now score a Sausage, Egg & Cheese McGriddles Meal or a 10-piece Chicken McNuggets Meal—each bundled with medium fries and a soft drink—for under $5 at most restaurants, though prices vary by market. The move targets breakfast lovers looking for portable protein as well as afternoon snackers craving the chain’s best-selling nuggets without paying full combo prices. The value push arrives as competitors roll out their own cut-price combos, and analysts say McDonald’s is leveraging its purchase-power advantage to keep drive-thru lines humming during inflationary times. Expect the new bundles to feature prominently in the McDonald’s app, where digital orders have surged to a record 40 percent of U.S. sales in 2025. Across the Atlantic, U.K. customers are buzzing about eight “never-before-seen” items that hit restaurants this week. The headliners: • Maple BBQ & Bacon Double Quarter Pounder – a smoky, syrup-glazed spin on the classic beef stack. • Pineapple McSpicy – McDonald’s fiery chicken sandwich balanced with a sweet pineapple ring. • Garlic & Black Pepper McNuggets – six- or 20-piece portions dusted in aromatic seasoning. • Mac & Cheese Triangles (regular and sharebox sizes) for cheese-pull enthusiasts. • Sour Cream & Black Pepper McShaker Fries plus two Pretzel McFlurry flavors to finish the feast. UK marketing documents label the range the “World Menu Heist,” teasing global street-food inspiration while nudging average order value upward. Early social posts show long queues and early sell-outs of the Pineapple McSpicy, echoing 2023’s viral Chicken Big Mac frenzy. Meanwhile, corporate menu spotters hint that select international novelties could migrate to U.S. test kitchens next spring, continuing McDonald’s strategy of rapid-fire LTOs (limited-time offers) that keep the brand trending on TikTok and food-review channels. For consumers, the bottom line is simple: whether you’re hunting a sub-$5 breakfast combo or chasing the next TikTok-worthy burger, McDonald’s menu in late 2025 is built to satisfy cravings without crushing budgets. Keep an eye on the app for surprise “stealth drops,” because the chain’s next craveable creation could arrive sooner—and disappear faster—than you think.
