McDonald’s is adding a bunch of tasty new options to its menu today just in time for Easter, and a few fan-favourites are also making a return.
Yes, that’s right – the legendary Creme Egg McFlurry is back.
It’s felt like a long time coming, but the first signs of spring are officially showing, and now, popular fast food chain McDonald’s has finally confirmed that fans will be able to indulge in its classic Easter-themed dessert once again from today, alongside some other limited-edition sweet and savoury options that are bound to go down a real treat.
The Creme Egg McFlurry is an undeniable Maccies fan favourite, and is made from dairy ice cream swirled with Cadbury milk chocolate pieces, and the trademark gooey Cadbury Crème Egg fondant sauce running all the way through.
The massively-popular dessert comes in both the regular and mini size, and will set you back £2.19 each, or just £1.59 for the mini.

Although the Creme Egg McFlurry is obviously one of the most-anticipated returning menu items, especially with Easter being only few weeks away now, it’s not the only thing due for a comeback, as McDonald’s has also confirmed that the popular burger, the McCrispy Deluxe, will be returning today, as well as the beloved Halloumi Fries.
Fresh from its debut in summer 2023, the McCrispy Deluxe will be back for a limited time this Easter, and is made up of a 100% chicken breast fillet in a crispy crunchy coating topped with a hot and spicy mayo, caramelised onion compote, seasonal lettuce, bacon, red onions, a slice of cheddar cheese and a sourdough style bun.

Of course, it wouldn’t be a new seasonal menu without a cheesy sidekick, would it? That’s why the Halloumi Fries – which are coated in a light batter, and served with a rich tomato dip – are also returning today, and will also be available to order in ‘Sharebox’ size too.

Then, when it comes to newbies, there’s a few debuts on the McDonald’s Easter menu for 2024 too.
This year, if fast food fans aren’t into Creme Eggs, then they can tuck into the brand-new the Galaxy Truffle Bunny McFlurry instead, or opt for a seasonal take on the chain’s iconic dessert in the form of the new Hot Cross Bun Pie for just £1.99.

And to top it all off, you can wash all your seasonal treats off with the new Hot Cross Bun Latte – which is described as being a smooth latte blended with a sweet and spiced hot cross bun-flavoured syrup, and topped with cinnamon cream and hot cross bun-flavoured dusting.
The McDonald’s 2024 Easter menu will officially be launching across the UK today (Wednesday 13 March), and will be available for a limited time only.

Manchester crowned UK’s best-value stag do destination for 2026
Emily Sergeant
Prague, Amsterdam, Benidorm, and now… Manchester?
Jetting off to some of Europe’s cheapest capital cities for a boozy night out with your mates before tying the knot is pretty common-place in the world of stag do culture nowadays.
But some new research has now revealed the UK cities that deliver a legendary last hurrah without the price tag, or the need to hop on a plane.
Chillisauce, the UK’s leading hen and stag organiser, has analysed 81,000+ recent group bookings alongside survey feedback from 4,738 stag groups, cross-referenced against live 2026 travel fares, accommodation, and pint prices.
To devise its top 10 list, real price data has been blended with verified group satisfaction to guarantee stags and their pals the best experience.
With the pull of a major city with music, sport, food, and nightlife without London prices, Manchester was crowned the best-value city for a stag do in 2026 overall.

The average pint runs a little higher in Manchester than the smaller cities on the list, but groups rated the sheer scale and quality of the night out well above the cost, calling it ‘much more affordable than the South of England’ and ‘cheaper than London’.
For a weekend in Manchester, research found that the average cost per person includes £86.36 for accommodation, £36.66 for an activity, £25.08 for a drinks package, £29.35 for a meal, and the average pint coming in at £6.
“We send thousands of groups to Prague, Amsterdam, and Benidorm every year,” said Robyn Davis, Head of Stag and Hen at Chillisauce,”but Manchester keeps delivering nights out that groups tell us beat their expectations.
“There are also those only-in-Manchester touches too, like catching a match at Old Trafford or the Etihad on the same trip.
“Groups describe the locals as up for a laugh and the whole city as ‘built for a stag weekend,’ with a huge number of them already planning to go back, which is the real test of a great destination.”
Other northern destinations on the top 10 list include Newcastle, Leeds, and Liverpool.
Manchester furniture outlet LOFT is hosting a major closing-down sale with up to 70% off

Manchester furniture outlet LOFT is hosting a major closing-down sale with up to 70% off.
Okay, so it’s not technically closing down per se, but the current LOFT premises off Hyde Road near Piccadilly will officially close doors on 30 September, as the business consolidates its operations and relocates to its newly completed headquarters over at Trafford Park.
Unlike a typical closing-down sale, the stock isn’t old or unwanted. Instead, it’s a live snapshot of LOFT’s day-to-day business, and everything must go.
LOFT is known for furnishing properties across the build-to-rent, student accommodation, co-living, private rented, and social housing sectors, and that constant turnover naturally generates surplus – whether it be project overstock, end-of-line pieces or discontinued items making way for new collections.
The move over to Trafford Park is said to be a moment to clear the warehouse ‘completely’ and start the new chapter with a clean slate.

This means that everything, from sofas and beds, to dining sets, armchairs, and home accessories, must go before the move, with prices already reduced by 50 to 70% below RRP.
Benjamin Hall, who is the Founder and CEO of LOFT, says this is the ‘biggest and best value’ sale the company has ever offered.
He explained: “As we settle into our new home at Trafford Park, we want a completely clean slate. Whether you’re a homeowner after a one-off bargain, or a landlord, agent or developer furnishing multiple units on a budget, there has never been a better time to visit.”
