The price hikes, first reported by MailOnline, have also hit the McDonald’s Vegan range.

The Vegetable Deluxe was £3.59 in June but is now being flogged for £4.19, while the McPlant has shot up in price from £3.69 to £4.29.

This time last year the company said it was increasing the price of a cheeseburger for the first time in 14 years from 99p to £1.19.

In April, McDonald’s revealed sales in the first quarter of 2023 rose four percent to £4.57billion, compared to the same period in 2022.

It comes as a mum has shared how she made a “McDonald’s fakeaway” for her kids.

She used bargain Aldi items, and claimed it was cheaper than getting it from the fast food chain.

The Sun has approached McDonald’s for comment.
