MACCIES fans will not have to wait much longer for the 2022 Christmas menu, and it features some returning favourites.
Here we explain when the McDonald’s menu starts and what seasonal specials are on offer.
When does McDonald’s Christmas menu end?
McDonald has confirmed that new menu items will be available in UK restaurants from November 23.
Hungry diners have six weeks to bag the treats in line with other limited edition items.
The Christmas menu specials will therefore be taken off the menu on January 4, 2023.
What’s on the McDonald’s Christmas menu?
There are several returning favourites to the Christmas menu this year:
- Big Tasty – £5.29 on its own or £6.89 as a meal

The new menu features the Big Tasty, available for £5.29 on its own or £6.89 as a meal.
It’s made up of beef patty, emmental cheese, onions, tomatoes and a smoky sauce.
Plus, there’s the Big Tasty with bacon for £5.89 on its own or £7.49 as a meal.
Next, you’ve got the Cheese Melt Dippers for £2.29 and the Cheese Melt Dippers Sharebox for £5.99.
Both are made up of breaded camembert bites and served with a tangy tomato dip.
The Celebrations McFlurry will set you back £1.79 while the Festive Pie will cost you £1.29.
Anyone who’s a fan of mince pies will like the Festive Pie, which is filled with mincemeat and custard.
The Celebrations McFlurry comes with soft dairy ice cream, Malteser clusters, Galaxy chocolate drops, caramel pieces, Mars chewy pieces, Twix biscuits and milk chocolate sauce.
Plus, the new McCrispy, which only hit restaurants last month, will cost £4.99 on its own or £6.49 as a meal.
The burger comes with chicken breast in a crispy and crunchy coating, served with iceberg lettuce, black pepper mayo and a sourdough-style sesame topped bun.
How do I find my nearest McDonald’s?
If you’re planning on taking a trip to McDonald’s, you’ll want to know where your nearest branch is.
The chain has a restaurant locator tool on its website you can use to find your nearest one – and check what time it opens.
Bear in mind that McDonald’s serves breakfast every day until 11am.
After that, the menu switches to the normal menu serving meals such as burgers, chicken nuggets and more.
Is the McDonald’s Christmas menu available during breakfast hours?
McDonald’s breakfast is not affected by the Christmas menu.
So you’ll have to wait till 11am to buy breakfast menu items.
It used to switch to the lunchtime menu half an hour earlier – at 10.30am, but bosses added an extra 30 minutes to the breakfast range in 2019.
Restaurants open 24 hours a day start serving breakfast from 5am.
Every other restaurant kicks off the day with the breakfast menu at their normal opening times.
We also recently revealed the McCafe Christmas menu that is available now.
Meanwhile, McDonald’s is scrapping plastic cutlery and introducing a new paper-based alternative.
