McDonald's announce Chicken Big Mac return date but fans will have to be quick

It's return of the Mac!

Fast food giant McDonald's have confirmed the return date of the sell-out Chicken Big Mac.

Earlier this month a new sandwich came onto the market to rival the iconic Big Mac-customers raced to get their hands on the chicken burger that was sold with the famous Big Mac sauce.

But customers were left 'devastated' after McDonalds announced they were taking it off the menu just a week after it was launched.

The Chicken Big Mac launched as a limited-edition menu item on February 2 but was rapidly removed on February 11.

McDonald's reassured customers it would return to stores but were unable to confirm a specific date while restaurants made time to get the stock in.

At the time it was axed, McDonald's said: "We have been delighted by our customers' reaction to the limited-edition Chicken Big Mac. The demand has been incredible and we simply cannot keep up.

"As such, we've made the decision to pause the promotion, let our restaurant teams and suppliers restock and get ready for its return in a few weeks. We'll keep customers informed about its return through the usual channels. Thank you to everyone who has made this our most popular launch ever.

"We can't wait to bring it back for even more customers to enjoy."

On social media, it added: "Well, that escalated quickly. Your love for the limited edition Chicken Big Mac knew no bounds and it's sold out almost everywhere.

"Thank you for lovin' it even more than we thought you would, it'll be back soon."

Now, a delight for customers, McDonalds have confirmed that the Chicken Big Mac will be returning to restaurants across the UK from March 2.

But fans will have to be quick as it will only be available for two weeks until March 15.

As Birmingham Live reports, fans of the fast food chain can also enjoy pancakes for under £1 on Pancake Day (Tuesday March 1).

Breakfast fans will be able to get Pancakes and Syrup or Pancakes and Sausage with Syrup for just 99p via the My McDonald's App.

Pancakes at McDonald's normally cost £2.59 so you are saving around £1.60.
