McDonald's bringing $5 value meal to menu in June. Here's where to get it

McDonald's got the message loud and clear, now they're doing something about it.

The fast-food giant was hit with backlash after the New York Post reported in July that a McDonald's at a Connecticut rest stop was charging $18 for a Big Mac combo meal. In February, McDonald's CEO Chris Kempczinski committed to an affordable menu in 2024.

Now, McDonald's is poised to deliver on its promise.

New McDonald's value meals coming in June

On June 25, McDonald's will add the $5 value meal.

The value meal will include four items: a McChicken or McDouble, four-piece chicken nuggets, fries and a drink, CNBC reports. The deal will only be offered for a limited time.

McDonald's shareable meals available

McDonald's already has special sharable meals found on its app that provide large quantities of food for a low price.

For example, the McDonald's at 700 W. 4th St. in Wilmington has:

• Chicken Pack: Four McChicken sandwiches, 20-piece Chicken McNuggets and four medium fried for $25.

• Big Mac Bundle: Two Big Macs, two cheeseburgers, 10-piece McNuggets and two medium fries for $25.

Each restaurant has its own shareable menu.

McDonald's dropping free drink refills?

According to Marketplace, the burger giant will phase out self-serve soda machines by 2032. The change is already being implemented in some stores, leaving some consumers frustrated.
