A Big Mac costs about $7.59 at most U.S. McDonald’s restaurants in 2026, and a 10-piece Chicken McNuggets runs about $6.49. The cheapest items, like the Sausage Biscuit, McChicken and McDouble, sit under $3 on the McValue menu.

Below you’ll find every item on the current U.S. menu with its typical price and calories. We also cover Extra Value Meals, McValue deals, breakfast hours and the limited-time items running this fall.

Calories and protein on this page come straight from McDonald’s official U.S. nutrition data, checked item by item on October 22, 2026. See how we check this menu.

McDonald’s doesn’t publish a national price list. About 95% of U.S. restaurants are run by franchisees, and each owner sets their own prices, so treat these numbers as typical prices.

Your local restaurant may be 50 cents to a few dollars higher or lower than what you see here. Delivery apps like Uber Eats and DoorDash usually add more on top of that.

These are the items people look up most. The “price range” column shows the spread we found across U.S. menus this month, so you can tell if your local restaurant is on the high or low side.

What’s New On The McDonald’s Menu Right Now?

McDonald’s adds and drops items several times a year, so the menu you saw last month may look a little different today. Here’s what’s on U.S. menus in fall 2026:

  • Monopoly (from Oct. 6, 2026): Game pieces come with eligible items, including the Quarter Pounder with Cheese, Egg McMuffin, large fries and large drinks. Pre-register in the McDonald’s app to get a bonus Chance card play with each eligible app purchase through Nov. 1.
  • Red Bull Dragonberry Energizer (from Aug. 17, 2026): Part of the newer drink lineup with the refreshers and “dirty” sodas.
  • Disney Villains Boo Buckets Happy Meal (from Oct. 20, 2026): Five bucket designs (Jafar, Ursula, Scar, Cruella and Maleficent) while supplies last.
  • $2 Halloween Treats Pack: 12 coupons for free Hamburgers, Vanilla Cones, Apple Slices and Apple Juice or milk jugs, good through Dec. 31.

You may also see small “protein” badges next to some items on the menu board and in the app, such as “protein 17g” on the Egg McMuffin. McDonald’s started adding these in spring 2026 to make high-protein choices easier to spot.

Limited-Time Items That Have Ended

A few fall items are no longer listed on McDonald’s official U.S. menu as of Oct. 22, 2026. Some restaurants may still have them until stock runs out, so check the app before you go.

  • Spicy Chicken McNuggets: Returned on Sept. 1, 2026, in 6, 10, 20 and 40 pieces with Mighty Hot Sauce.
  • Caramel Apple Pie coffees: Iced coffee, latte, iced latte and frappé versions, launched Aug. 17, 2026.
  • Honey Brown Butter Bacon, Egg & Cheese Biscuit: A limited breakfast sandwich sold while supplies lasted.

When Is The New McDonald’s Menu Coming Out?

There isn’t one big menu launch. McDonald’s rolls items in and out through the year, with new promotions arriving every month or two, and the next one to expect is the holiday menu.

Last year’s Grinch Meal arrived on Dec. 2, 2025, with Dill Pickle “Grinch Salt” McShaker Fries, a Big Mac or 10-piece McNuggets, a medium drink and Grinch socks. McDonald’s hasn’t confirmed a 2026 holiday meal yet.

When Does The McDonald’s Menu Change?

Menu boards change at 10:30 a.m. on weekdays and 11 a.m. on weekends at most restaurants, when breakfast switches to lunch. In the UK, the Christmas menu normally lands in early November, which is why “when is the Christmas McDonald’s menu” is a common search there.


McDonald’s Extra Value Meals With Prices

Extra Value Meals came back nationwide on Sept. 8, 2025. Each combo comes with fries (or hash browns at breakfast) and a drink, and McDonald’s says it saves about 15% compared with buying each item separately.

The launch prices were a $5 Sausage McMuffin with Egg Meal and an $8 Big Mac Meal. Prices and participation vary, so many restaurants now charge a little more than those launch prices.

Breakfast Extra Value Meals

Every breakfast Extra Value Meal comes with Hash Browns and a small McCafé Premium Roast Coffee. You can usually swap the coffee for a soft drink or orange juice for a small extra charge.

MealTypical priceCalories
Sausage McMuffin with Egg Meal$5.00 – $8.09625

Lunch And Dinner Extra Value Meals

Every lunch and dinner Extra Value Meal comes with medium World Famous Fries and a medium soft drink. Upsizing to large fries and a large drink usually adds about $1 to $1.50.

MealTypical priceCalories

Meal calories are McDonald’s official numbers for each meal with medium fries and a medium soft drink. Swapping the soda for a Diet Coke, water or unsweetened iced tea takes about 270 calories off any meal.

Are Combo Meals Cheaper Than Ordering Separately?

Usually, yes. A Big Mac ($7.59), medium fries ($3.99) and a medium Coke ($2.00) add up to $13.58 on their own. The Big Mac Meal at $8 to $11.19 saves you $2.39 to $5.58. The exception is when the app has a strong single-item deal running.


McDonald’s McValue Menu And Dollar Menu Prices

McValue is McDonald’s value menu. It launched in January 2025 and was rebuilt on April 21, 2026 with a new Under $3 Menu, and it now has three parts you can mix and match.

$4 Breakfast Meal Deals

For $4 you get a Sausage McMuffin or Sausage Biscuit with Hash Browns and a small McCafé Premium Roast Coffee. These are limited-time deals and are only served during breakfast hours.

Meal DealPriceCalories
Sausage Biscuit Meal Deal$4.00605
Sausage McMuffin Meal Deal$4.00545

$5 Lunch And Dinner Meal Deals

For about $5 you get a McChicken or McDouble with 4-piece Chicken McNuggets, small fries and a small soft drink. It’s one of the most filling meals on the menu for the price.

Meal DealPriceCalories
McChicken Meal Deal$5.00990
McDouble Meal Deal$5.00 – $6.00990

Some restaurants price the McDouble version at $6 instead of $5. Check the menu board or the app before you order so the total at the window isn’t a surprise.

Under $3 Menu

Every item here is under $3 at participating restaurants. Breakfast items are only sold until 10:30 a.m. on weekdays and 11 a.m. on weekends.

ItemTypical priceCalories
Sausage Biscuit (breakfast)$1.99460
Sausage McMuffin (breakfast)$2.19400

4 pc Chicken McNuggets$2.79170

Does McDonald’s Still Have The $1 $2 $3 Menu?

No. The $1 $2 $3 Dollar Menu launched in January 2018 and faded out over the next few years as franchisees dropped it and prices went up.

Today the closest thing is the Under $3 menu above, plus deals in the app. If a site still lists $1, $2 and $3 prices for 2026, it’s showing an old menu.

When Did McDonald’s Remove The Dollar Menu?

The national Dollar Menu ended in November 2013, when McDonald’s swapped it for the Dollar Menu & More. The later $1 $2 $3 menu was never formally retired with a date; it slowly disappeared from most restaurants by the early 2020s.

Why Did McDonald’s Change The McValue Menu?

In April 2026, McDonald’s reorganized McValue into an Under $3 menu and fixed-price Meal Deals. The Under $3 items are now listed separately for breakfast and for lunch and dinner.

The older “Buy One, Add One for $1” offer no longer appears on the official McValue page. Some restaurants may still honor it, so ask at the counter.


McDonald’s Breakfast Menu With Prices 2026

Breakfast runs from opening until 10:30 a.m. Monday to Friday and 11 a.m. on Saturday and Sunday at most U.S. restaurants. Some stores, especially 24-hour ones, start serving breakfast at 4 or 5 a.m.

Does McDonald’s Serve Breakfast All Day?

Not anymore. All Day Breakfast ended nationally in March 2020 to speed up drive-thru service. A few franchisees still sell hash browns or McMuffins after 10:30 a.m., but it’s up to each restaurant.

What’s The Best-Value McDonald’s Breakfast?

The $4 Sausage McMuffin Meal Deal gets you a sandwich, Hash Browns and coffee for less than an Egg McMuffin and Hash Browns would cost separately ($7.78). If you want more protein, the Egg McMuffin has 17 grams for 310 calories.


McDonald’s Lunch Menu With Prices

Lunch starts when breakfast ends (10:30 a.m. on weekdays, 11 a.m. on weekends) and runs until close. The lunch and dinner menu is the same, and McDonald’s doesn’t charge different prices for dinner.

Calories and protein below come from McDonald’s official U.S. nutrition data. Prices are typical U.S. prices, because McDonald’s doesn’t list prices on its website and each restaurant sets its own.

How Much Is The Whole McDonald’s Menu?

Ordering one of every regular item on the U.S. menu above (108 items, not counting meals, sauces or seasonal flavors) costs about $456 before tax at typical prices. That includes every breakfast item, burger, chicken sandwich, McNugget size, fry size, dessert, McCafé drink and soft drink.


McDonald’s USA Menu Prices: Why Your Restaurant Is Different

Why Are McDonald’s Prices Different At Every Location?

Franchise owners set their own prices, so rent, wages and local taxes all show up on the menu board. Restaurants in airports, travel plazas and big cities often charge the most. The McValue deals and Extra Value Meals have set national prices, but even those say “prices and participation may vary.”

Takeout McDonald’s Menu With Prices: Is Takeout Cheaper?

Takeout, drive-thru and in-store prices are the same. Ordering pickup in the McDonald’s app also uses in-store prices and gets you app-only deals and MyMcDonald’s Rewards points.

Delivery is different. Uber Eats, DoorDash and Grubhub menus are often priced higher than in-store, delivery and service fees come on top, and McValue deals don’t apply to McDelivery.

How Do I Find The McDonald’s Menu Near Me?

  1. Open the McDonald’s app or go to mcdonalds.com and choose “Order Now.”
  2. Pick your restaurant by ZIP code or location.
  3. Browse the menu. The app shows that restaurant’s exact prices, which items are available, and deals you can add.

The app is the only reliable way to see your local prices before you get to the counter. It also shows which limited-time items your restaurant actually has in stock.


McDonald’s Menu Numbers

Combo numbers aren’t set nationally. Each restaurant numbers its own board, and many newer digital boards drop the numbers altogether.

The Big Mac Meal is usually #1 on boards that still use numbers. After that, the order usually runs through the Quarter Pounder, McNuggets and McCrispy meals, so order by name to be safe.


McDonald’s Hours

DayBreakfastLunch and dinner
Monday – FridayOpening – 10:30 a.m.10:30 a.m. – close
Saturday – SundayOpening – 11 a.m.11 a.m. – close

Many restaurants open at 5 or 6 a.m., and a lot of drive-thrus stay open late or 24 hours. Check your restaurant’s hours in the app, since they vary by location.


McDonald’s Secret Menu

These aren’t official items, but you can build them by ordering the parts. Our McDonald’s secret menu guide has the full list with prices.

  • Land, Air & Sea: One of McDonald’s official 2022 Menu Hacks. Order a Big Mac, a McChicken and a Filet-O-Fish, then stack the McChicken and Filet-O-Fish inside the Big Mac.
  • Poor Man’s Big Mac: A McDouble with shredded lettuce and Big Mac sauce instead of ketchup and mustard. Some restaurants charge 30 to 60 cents for the sauce.
  • Apple Pie McFlurry: A plain vanilla McFlurry or sundae with a Baked Apple Pie mixed in. Many crews will blend it for you if asked.

McDonald’s Nutrition And Allergens

McDonald’s publishes calories, ingredients and the full allergen list for every U.S. item on its website and in the app. A few things that come up often:

  • Healthiest picks: Egg McMuffin (310 calories, 17 g protein), Hamburger (250), 4 pc McNuggets (170) and Apple Slices (15).
  • Highest-calorie single meal item: Big Breakfast with Hotcakes at 1,340 calories (the 40-piece McNuggets box is 1,650, but it’s meant for sharing).
  • Gluten-free: Nothing on the U.S. menu is certified gluten-free. The beef patties, eggs, hash browns and apple slices have no gluten ingredients, but they’re cooked in shared kitchens.
  • Vegetarian: There’s no veggie burger in the U.S. Fries and hash browns contain milk derivatives.

McDonald’s tracks the nine major U.S. food allergens: milk, egg, wheat, soy, peanuts, tree nuts, fish, shellfish and sesame. Kitchens share fryers and prep areas, so cross-contact is always possible.

How Many Calories Are In The McDonald’s Menu?

Most sandwiches fall between 250 and 740 calories, and most lunch meals run 900 to 1,350 calories with medium fries and a regular soda. Swapping to a Diet Coke, water or unsweetened iced tea is the easiest way to cut about 270 calories from any meal.

MyMcDonald’s Rewards And The McDonald’s App

MyMcDonald’s Rewards is free to join in the McDonald’s app. You earn points on every app or rewards-scanned order and trade them for free items, starting with small items like a cone or hash browns.

You earn 100 points for every $1 you spend, and you can redeem one reward per order. Rewards start with small items and climb to full sandwiches and meals.

The app also has weekly deals that aren’t on the menu board, and it shows your restaurant’s exact prices. Pickup orders use in-store prices, so ordering ahead never costs more than ordering at the counter.


How We Check This Menu

Every calorie and protein number on this page comes from McDonald’s official U.S. nutrition data, published on mcdonalds.com. We checked all items, one by one, on October 22, 2026, and matched each row on this page against McDonald’s own numbers.

Prices work differently. McDonald’s doesn’t publish prices on its website, because each franchise owner sets the prices at their own restaurant. The prices here are typical U.S. prices that we compare across several menus and check against McDonald’s official deal prices, such as the $5 Meal Deal and the Under $3 menu.

Frequently Asked Questions

What Is On The Current McDonald’s Menu?

The U.S. menu has 14 categories: Extra Value Meals, McValue, Breakfast, Burgers, Chicken & Fish Sandwiches, McNuggets & McCrispy Strips, Snack Wraps, Fries & Sides, Happy Meal, Sweets & Treats, McCafé, Drinks, Sauces & Condiments, and a limited-time section (the Monopoly menu this fall).

What Is The Cheapest Item At McDonald’s?

The Plain Bagel ($1.49), Chocolate Chip Cookie ($1.49) and Sausage Biscuit ($1.99) are the cheapest food items. At lunch, the McChicken at about $2.49 is the cheapest sandwich.

How Much Is A Happy Meal At McDonald’s?

A Hamburger Happy Meal costs about $5.19, a 4-piece McNuggets Happy Meal about $5.59, and a 6-piece McNuggets Happy Meal about $6.19. Prices are a little higher in big cities.

Does McDonald’s Have A Senior Discount?

There’s no national senior discount at McDonald’s. Some franchise locations give seniors a discounted coffee or soft drink, so it’s worth asking at your local restaurant.

Why Are There Crosses On The McDonald’s Menu?

The small cross-like marks (†, * or ^) next to item names are footnote symbols. They point to fine print such as “at participating restaurants” or “weight before cooking 4.25 oz.”

In spring 2026, McDonald’s also added protein badges to 17 items. Many customers noticed those labels for the first time and mistook them for crosses.

Why Is McDonald’s Logo An Upside-Down M (A W)?

On March 8, 2018, McDonald’s flipped its Golden Arches into a “W” on its social media and at one restaurant in Lynwood, California, for International Women’s Day. It was a one-day campaign, not a permanent change.

How Much Is The McDonald’s Saver Menu Or Loose Change Menu?

Those are UK value menus, not U.S. ones. In the U.S., the closest match is the McValue Under $3 menu and the $4 and $5 Meal Deals.

Is There A McDonald’s Menu With Prices PDF?

McDonald’s doesn’t release a priced PDF because every restaurant sets its own prices. It does publish a nutrition PDF with calories and allergens, and you can print this page with Ctrl+P or Cmd+P to save the price list.

Can I Give Feedback On My McDonald’s Order?

Yes. The receipt has a survey code for the McDVOICE survey, which usually gives you a validation code for a free item on your next visit. Our McDVOICE survey guide walks through each step.
