McDonald’s Menu With Prices 2026
This page lists the current U.S. McDonald’s menu with price guidance for every category. Prices are presented with clear accuracy notes so readers can distinguish advertised offers, local restaurant examples and independent planning figures without cluttering the tables.

Important price disclosure: McDonald’s does not publish one fixed nationwide regular-price list. Prices can change by restaurant, size, meal configuration, promotion and order channel. The blue “Official local delivery” prices below come from the official McDonald’s delivery menu for 2303 Demere Rd, St. Simons Island, Georgia; they are examples from one restaurant, not U.S. national prices. McDonald’s states that delivery prices may be higher than restaurant prices.
Read the price label first
How the 2026 Prices on This Page Are Verified
The accuracy rule: A dollar amount is only as trustworthy as its label. “Official McDonald’s” means McDonald’s itself advertises the price or price category. “Official local delivery” means the exact amount was displayed by one named McDonald’s restaurant on the official delivery site. “MacMenus reference” means an independent planning figure, not an official national price. “Check local app” is used when the checked sources do not support a reliable number.
Price context: Official McDonald’s offer prices, restaurant-specific delivery examples and independent planning references are explained in each row’s Accuracy Note and in the E-E-A-T section below. The table itself stays simple: Menu Item, 2026 Price Guide and Accuracy Note.
Why some rows say “Check local app” instead of a fake number: your supplied catalog intentionally left its price object empty and instructed the publisher to enter prices from a real restaurant. That is correct methodology. A complete article should not manufacture a price for a bagel, limited-time sauce or size when the supporting source does not provide one.

McDonald’s corporate Menu Spotter says the Caesar Snack Wrap is nationally available for $2.99 at participating restaurants for a limited time. The local delivery example demonstrates why delivery can be higher.

Best official price evidence
McValue Menu Prices: Under $3, $4 Breakfast and $5 Meal Deals
These are the safest nationwide-style price claims because McDonald’s publishes the price categories itself. Participation varies and the advertised McValue pricing excludes McDelivery.
Current McValue Price Structure
| Menu item | 2026 price guide | Accuracy note |
|---|---|---|
| Sausage McMuffin® — Under-$3 Menu | Under $3 | Participating restaurants; excludes McDelivery. |
| Sausage Biscuit — Under-$3 Menu | Under $3 | Participating restaurants; excludes McDelivery. |
| Sausage Burrito — Under-$3 Menu | Under $3 | Participating restaurants; excludes McDelivery. |
| Hash Browns — Under-$3 Menu | Under $3 | Participating restaurants; excludes McDelivery. |
| Medium Premium Roast Coffee — Under-$3 Menu | Under $3 | Participating restaurants; excludes McDelivery. |
| McChicken® — Under-$3 Menu | Under $3 / $3.49 local delivery | Official pickup value category; the checked delivery store shows a higher delivery price. |
| McDouble® — Under-$3 Menu | Under $3 / $4.49 local delivery | Official pickup value category; delivery example can be higher. |
| 4 Piece Chicken McNuggets® — Under-$3 Menu | Under $3 / $3.49 local delivery | Official pickup value category; delivery excluded from advertised price. |

| Sausage Biscuit Breakfast Meal Deal | $4 | Includes Hash Browns and small Premium Roast Coffee; participation varies; delivery excluded. |
| McChicken® Meal Deal | $5 | Current McValue category lists $5 Meal Deals; participating restaurants; delivery excluded. |
| McDouble® Meal Deal | $5 advertised category | McDonald's notes prices/participation vary; some markets can be higher. |
Useful distinction: “Under $3” does not mean every restaurant charges exactly $2.99. McDonald’s uses the category wording and states that prices and participation may vary. Write “Under $3 at participating restaurants” rather than assigning an unsupported exact cent amount.
Breakfast
McDonald’s Breakfast Menu With Prices 2026
Breakfast combines official McValue price categories with MacMenus planning references. Breakfast bagels and several regular breakfast meals remain marked for a local check because the checked given sources do not provide a defensible current numeric price.

Fries & sides
McDonald’s Fries Prices by Size
Do not assign one scraped Fries price to Small, Medium and Large. The official local delivery crawl shows “French Fries $3.19” without exposing the selected size, so the number is kept as a separate local observation.

McDonald’s Happy Meal Prices 2026
MacMenus publishes independent planning ranges. The official local delivery examples from St. Simons Island sit above those ranges, which is another reason not to call an independent range a guaranteed national maximum.

McCafé Menu Prices 2026
Most of these numbers are genuine local delivery-menu prices from the official McDonald’s ordering site. They represent one restaurant and channel, so the page identifies them as local instead of using the word “average.”

How These McDonald’s Prices Were Fact-Checked
Who
Author: [Your real author or Editorial Team]. Do not claim McDonald’s employment, restaurant testing or nutrition credentials unless they are genuine and verifiable.
How
Menu categories and current public offers were checked against McDonald’s official U.S. sources. Regular local prices were checked against the official McDonald’s delivery menu for 2303 Demere Rd, St. Simons Island, Georgia. Independent planning prices are explicitly labeled “MacMenus reference.” No reference or local delivery price is described as a nationwide official McDonald’s price.
Why
The goal is to answer “How much does McDonald’s cost?” without giving the visitor false precision. The page gives useful numbers, then tells the user exactly what each number represents and where to confirm the final price.
Source hierarchy
- McDonald’s corporate / official U.S. menu and McValue pages for menu status and nationally advertised price categories.
- Official McDonald’s local ordering page for a real restaurant-specific price observation.
- MacMenus.us for independent reference/planning prices, only when clearly labeled.
- No invented number when those sources do not support a price.
Primary source links
- McDonald’s U.S. Full Menu
- Official McValue Menu
- Official McValue & Deals
- McDonald’s USA Menu Spotter
- McDonald’s Official Delivery Ordering
Update policy
When you refresh this article, do not merely change the “updated” date. Recheck the official McValue structure, limited-time items, the local-store observation and any reference prices that remain visible. If a price changes, keep a short price-history note rather than silently overwriting evidence.
Structured-data safety
Do not mark MacMenus reference prices or the St. Simons Island delivery prices as a universal Product/Offer price in schema for the entire United States. Structured data must match the scope of the visible information. A location-specific observation is not a nationwide offer.
FAQs
McDonald’s Menu Price FAQs
Why are there different prices in the same row?
Because they answer different questions. An official McValue price is a public promotion at participating restaurants. A MacMenus reference is an independent planning figure. A local delivery price is the amount shown by one real McDonald’s restaurant through a delivery channel.
Are the local delivery prices official McDonald’s prices?
They are real prices displayed on an official McDonald’s ordering page for the named restaurant, but they are not official nationwide prices. Another restaurant can charge more or less.
Why can the delivery example be higher than an advertised price?
McDonald’s says delivery prices may be higher than restaurant prices and additional delivery or other fees can apply. Current McValue advertised pricing also excludes McDelivery.
How much is a Big Mac in 2026?
MacMenus uses about $5.39+ as an independent planning reference, while the checked official St. Simons Island delivery menu showed $6.99. Use the restaurant you will actually visit for the final price.
How much is a Caesar Snack Wrap?
McDonald’s corporate Menu Spotter says the limited-time Caesar Snack Wrap is available nationally for $2.99 at participating restaurants. Delivery can be higher.
What items are officially Under $3?
Current breakfast choices are Sausage McMuffin, Sausage Biscuit, Sausage Burrito, Hash Browns and medium Premium Roast Coffee. Lunch/dinner choices are McChicken, McDouble, 4 Piece McNuggets, small Fries and a medium soft drink. Price and participation vary, and McDelivery is excluded.
What is the $4 breakfast Meal Deal?
Choose a Sausage McMuffin or Sausage Biscuit and get Hash Browns plus a small Premium Roast Coffee at participating restaurants. McDonald’s says prices and participation may vary and delivery is excluded.
What comes in the $5 lunch or dinner Meal Deal?
Choose a McChicken or McDouble and get 4 Piece Chicken McNuggets, small Fries and a small Coca-Cola or soft drink. Participating-store rules apply.
Why do some breakfast items still say “Check local app”?
Because the checked given sources do not support a current reliable numeric price for those exact items. A trustworthy price guide should show the gap instead of inventing a national number.
Are MacMenus reference prices official?
No. MacMenus explicitly describes its reference prices as editorial planning figures, not guaranteed national prices. This page labels them accordingly.
Can I copy one local delivery price into schema?
Not as a nationwide offer. A local restaurant delivery price has a specific restaurant, channel and date context. Structured data should not broaden its scope.
How often should the price tables be checked?
Limited-time products and app offers should be checked most often. Core regular prices should be rechecked whenever you update the page, and every local observation should keep its restaurant/channel context and check date.
Final takeaway
A Complete Price Guide Should Show the Number and Its Context
The strongest McDonald’s price page is not the one with the most confident-looking dollar signs. It is the one that tells the reader whether a number is an official advertised offer, a real restaurant-specific observation or an independent planning reference. This WordPress version now adds price guidance throughout the menu while keeping those source types visibly separated.
For the final amount you will pay, select the exact McDonald’s restaurant, use the same pickup or delivery channel, match the size and meal configuration, then review the checkout total before paying.
