McDonald’s is set to raise the prices of some menu items before Christmas time in Taiwan. Customers will see the changed rates starting Dec. 20.
McDonald’s Taiwan said on Thursday, Dec. 14, that it will initially apply the price hike on some food items next week. The fast-food giant further revealed that diners will see more price increases than a reduction.
List of Foods with Markup
The home of Big Macs listed all the menu items that will be affected by the price increase. As per Focus Taiwan, some of the foods that will be purchased ala carte, such as the Double Cheeseburger and Chicken McNuggets in six and 10-piece packs, will cost about NT$2 to $0.06 to NT$5 higher.
If they are bought as part of a meal bundle with medium fries and a drink, the price will still be the same at NT$38. McDonald’s Taiwan said that the other menu options, including Oreo McFlurry and 1-piece McCrispy, will get between NT$3 and NT$6 markup.
As for the favorite breakfast sides, all of them will cost NT$2 more. For various drinks, including Hot Honey Milk Tea and iced beverage options, the new prices will be NT$1 to NT$6 higher. All in all, the increase will affect nine McDonald’s food items.
New Menu Additions
With the updated costs of the meals, McDonald’s Taiwan also revealed that there will be small changes in its menu lineup as well. The burger joint will introduce some new items to its main meal category, including the parmesan Angus beef burger, parmesan chef chicken burger, 4-ounce beef burger, mushroom chef chicken burger, and the double 4-ounce beef burger.
On the other hand, Taiwan News reported that customers will also have to say goodbye to one of the sandwiches. The Taiwanese unit of McDonald’s is set to discontinue the BLT Spicy Crispy Chicken Burger.
