McDonald’s Drops McGriddle From UK Menus After Six-Week Run

The move reflects McDonald’s tactic of cycling limited items to refresh demand.

Overview

  • The breakfast sandwich, removed Tuesday, April 28, made way for a wider menu update across restaurants.
  • McDonald’s brought back the Big Tasty and Biscoff McFlurry and launched Spicy McCrispy and Cheese & Bacon McCrispy burgers.
  • The UK McGriddle paired sausage, egg and cheese with maple‑infused griddle cakes and sold for £3.99.
  • Fans on Reddit and X voiced strong disappointment and some said they bought extras to freeze for later.
  • McDonald’s uses short runs to test interest and manage variety, so items that leave the menu can return in future rotations.
