New McDonald’s Grinch Menu Launches with Festive Offerings

McDonald’s has rolled out its festive Grinch-themed menu, bringing a holiday twist to the fast-food giant’s offerings. This limited-time menu is set to run for six weeks from November 26th, 2025, and offers a variety of dishes inspired by the classic story of the green-hued grump.

The Cheesy Chicken Stack: A Grinchy Delight

One standout item on the new menu is the Cheesy Chicken Stack. This dish features a big 100% chicken breast fillet, coated in a crispy, crunchy batter and layered with a mega cheese melt, a slice of cheese, lettuce, and chipotle salsa, all nestled inside a soft bun. McDonald’s claims that this offering “steals the spotlight,” and the reviewer couldn’t agree more, deeming it as the most delicious item on their menu.

Vegan Options: The McPlant® Meal

The vegan burger option, the McPlant® meal, also made an appearance. Served with Beyond Meat, this was a surprise hit for the reviewer. Despite the ‘meat’ being non-animal-based, it packed a flavorful punch and didn’t disappoint in terms of taste. The addition of cheese melt dippers served with a rich tomato dip provided an excellent pairing that satisfied both meat-eaters and vegans alike.

Free Grinch-themed Socks: A Christmas Gift for the Hands

In addition to the delicious new menu items, McDonald’s is offering free Grinch-themed socks. These can be obtained by purchasing any of the following menu options: a Big Mac® meal, 9 Chicken McNuggets® meal, or McPlant® meal. The socks are part of a limited-edition collection designed to keep your toes warm and festive this winter.

Conclusion

The Grinch-themed menu is more than just a seasonal promotion; it’s an opportunity for McDonald’s to showcase its commitment to innovation, particularly in the realm of vegan options. Whether you’re a fan of the classic story or simply looking for something new and tasty, there’s plenty to enjoy on this festive menu. The reviewer highly recommends trying out these items before they disappear from the menu.
