What's on the McDonald's menu
McDonald's runs more U.S. restaurants than any other burger chain, 13,706 at the end of 2025, so this is the menu most of us could recite from memory. Even so, 2026 shook things up. A nationwide Under $3 Menu arrived in April, Snack Wraps are now a regular item again, and the drinks board picked up a row of fruity Refreshers and flavored sodas first tried at the CosMc's spinoff.
Treat the prices here as a guide, not a promise. Franchisees set their own, so the same Big Mac can cost a few dollars more at a highway stop than in a small town. We list typical U.S. ranges from 2026 news reports and price trackers, and calories from McDonald's own product pages. Before you order, pick your store in the McDonald's app and open the deals tab, which often beats the menu board.

McDonald's nutrition and calories
Calories swing widely, from 15 for Apple Slices to 1,340 for the Big Breakfast with Hotcakes. A Hamburger at 250 calories or a Snack Wrap near 400 keeps a meal moderate, while a large fries plus a medium shake adds more than 1,100 calories. For protein, the Double Quarter Pounder and McCrispy Strips give you the most per sandwich or box.
McDonald's allergen notes
McDonald's lists allergen details on each product page and in its online nutrition calculator. Milk, egg, wheat and soy show up across many buns, sauces and breaded items, and the Filet-O-Fish contains fish. The company warns that shared kitchen equipment and prep areas mean cross-contact can happen, so check every item if you manage an allergy.
When McDonald's is open

- Hours are set by each restaurant. Many open early for breakfast and some drive-thrus run late or overnight, so check your store in the McDonald's app.
- Breakfast hours
- Usually from opening until 10:30 a.m., with some stores serving until 11 a.m., often on weekends. Franchisees set the exact cutoff.

McDonald's app, rewards and delivery
- Official app
- McDonald's app
- Rewards program
- MyMcDonald's Rewards: you earn 100 points per $1 when you order in the app or scan your code at a kiosk, counter or drive-thru, then redeem points for free items starting at 1,500 points; points expire after about six months.
- Delivery
- McDelivery is offered through the McDonald's app at many stores and through major third-party delivery apps, but delivery menus usually cost more and add fees.
Current McDonald's deals we checked
- McValue Under $3 Menu with at least 10 everyday items, including the McDouble, McChicken, 4-piece McNuggets, Sausage McMuffin and Hash Browns
- $5 McChicken and $6 McDouble Meal Deals, each with 4-piece McNuggets, small fries and a small drink
- $4 Breakfast Meal Deal with a Sausage McMuffin or Sausage Biscuit, hash browns and a small coffee
- App-only offers for MyMcDonald's Rewards members, which change regularly and often include free or discounted items
How to order smarter at McDonald's
- Open the app before you leave and check the deals tab; a single offer can beat the Under $3 Menu on the same item.
- Scan your rewards code even when you pay cash, since points build toward free fries or a free sandwich.
- Ask for your fries with no salt if you want a fresh batch; you can add salt yourself.
- If breakfast ends at 10:30 a.m. near you, order a few minutes early, because registers switch menus right at the cutoff.
- Compare a Meal Deal with an Extra Value Meal; the $5 and $6 bundles often include more food for less money.
- Ordering through a delivery app? Check the in-app price first, since delivery menus can run a dollar or more higher per item.
