McDonald's is bringing back its Chicken Big Mac - but only for two weeks

McDonald’s has finally confirmed when its Chicken Big Mac will be back in UK restaurants.

The fast food chain left customers “devastated” after it confirmed it was pulling the burger due to “popular demand” earlier this month.

The Chicken Big Mac launched as a limited edition menu item on February 2 but was swiftly removed just days later on February 11.

At the time, Maccies said it would return to menus but didn’t confirm a date.

McDonald’s has now issued an update saying the Chicken Big Mac will be back from March 2 - but only until March 15.

This means Maccies fans will only have just under two weeks to get their hands on the burger before it disappears again.

A spokesperson from McDonald’s said: “We have been delighted by our customers’ reaction to the limited-edition Chicken Big Mac.

“Thank you to everyone who has made this the UK and Ireland’s most popular launch ever. “The demand has been incredible, and we’re pleased to share it’s back but for a limited time only.”

The new Chicken Big Mac is pretty much the same as a regular Big Mac with the special sauce, but it has chicken patties instead of beef burgers.

It costs £4.09 for just the sandwich, or £5.59 for a medium meal with chips and a drink - you can go large for £5.99.

Fans were left "heartbroken" when McDonald's confirmed they were temporarily getting rid of the Chicken Big Mac earlier this month.

One person said: “Nooooo I haven't had a chance yet! I am devastated.”

Another tweeted: “Back soon? Are you serious, just make it permanent!!!! It was the best thing I’ve ever eaten at McDonald’s!”

McDonald's has around 1,300 restaurants in the UK.

Maccies customers were left disappointed after the Chicken Legend was removed from the menu in October due to supply issues.

But the iconic burger - which contains chicken breast meat, with lettuce and mayo in toasted roll - was confirmed for a return on February 2.

In more McDonald's news, the fast food chain has confirmed it is running its annual Pancake Deal tomorrow (March 1).

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

You won't be able to get the discounted pancakes if you order in-person or through drive-thru without using the app first.

Customers can also only make use of the deal once.

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

McDonald’s breakfast is available from 5am-11am, while its lunchtime menu starts from 11am daily.
