McDonald’s: Popular meal deal axed from UK menus - customers left disappointed

• McDonald’s has removed its £2.99 breakfast deal
• Customers have shared their disappointment on social media
• McDonald’s has said its menu is “always evolving”

McDonald’s UK has axed one of its most popular meal deals, with fans already demanding for its return.

The iconic fast food chain has removed one of its breakfast deals, which includes a Sausage and Egg McMuffin and a hot drink for £2.99.

McDonald’s has a range of deals available, however some may be only available for a limited time.

The £2.99 breakfast deal was originally 20p cheaper at £2.79 for a Sausage and Egg McMuffin and a hot drink, but now has been withdrawn from the McDonald’s menu completely.

Despite the removal of the breakfast deal, this does not mean that the Sausage and Egg McMuffin and hot drinks have been removed from the menu, you will just have to pay more for the items.

As part of McDonald’s regular menu, the Sausage and Egg McMuffin is priced at £3.39 and hot drinks start from £1.39.
