For the first time in over a decade, McDonald’s have raised the price of their beloved cheeseburger. To soften the blow, we have consulted Tripadvisor to bring you five tasty alternatives.
Last week, the fast-food chain raised the price of a cheeseburger to £1.19 amidst record-high levels of inflation. According to chief executive of McDonald’s UK and Ireland, Alistair Macrow, this is only the beginning.

He said: “This summer our restaurants will be adding 10p and 20p to a number of menu items impacted most by inflation. From today we’ll be increasing the price of our cheeseburger for the first time in over 14 years, taking it from 99p to £1.19.”
