McDonald’s Canada is taking cravings to the next level with the launch of the new Big Arch burger, as of August 27th. This exciting menu addition brings together the classic McDonald’s ingredients you love, all in one big, satisfying burger.
The Big Arch was crafted in response to guests’ requests for a more filling burger that truly satisfies.
It features two quarter pound (before cooking) 100% Canadian beef patties, layered with three slices of white processed cheese, crispy onions, slivered onions, pickles, lettuce, and the all-new tangy and delicious Big Arch sauce.
“We’ve listened to our guests and know they want a bigger burger option, and we’re thrilled to bring this new global menu item to Canadians,” said Alyssa Buetikofer, Chief Marketing Officer at McDonald’s Canada. “This satisfying burger combines the familiar McDonald’s flavors our fans love with some exciting new ingredients, including a tangy sauce created specifically for the Big Arch.”
Like all McDonald’s Canada burgers, the Big Arch is made with 100% Canadian beef sourced from local ranches and farms. McDonald’s Canada proudly partners with these local farmers and ranchers to deliver the delicious, craveable beef burgers that Canadians have come to know and love.
Price
The Big Arch Burger is $9.99 (based on a sample pricing from a single McDonald’s location at 891 Granville Street). As a combo with a medium fries and soft drink (for example), it is $15.29.
