McDonald’s Grinch Happy Meal Spreads Holiday Cheer in the UK
If you're feeling a bit green with envy this holiday season, you’re not alone. McDonald’s has introduced a festive Grinch-themed Happy Meal in the UK and Ireland, available until December 31 (or while supplies last), and it’s already a massive hit. Unfortunately, for fans of the Grinch in the U.S., this festive meal won’t be crossing the Atlantic this year. Still, it’s worth talking about the buzz it’s generating.

The Grinch Happy Meal comes in an adorable carrying box featuring the Grinch himself, donning his iconic Santa hat. Inside, lucky diners will find collectible trading cards and a plush toy—either the Grinch or his loyal companion Max—straight from the beloved story, How the Grinch Stole Christmas . It’s a delightful nod to nostalgia, capturing the holiday spirit for both kids and adults alike.
Social media has been alight with excitement since this special edition meal launched. From Twitter to Facebook, posts are filled with joy as fans marvel over the green-themed packaging and cute plush toys. Some have even admitted that, while they’re typically not McDonald’s enthusiasts, they can’t resist this holiday treat. The internet has united in playful envy, with many U.S.-based fans expressing hope that the Grinch Happy Meal might one day make its way to their local McDonald’s.
Though it won’t be available stateside this year, history suggests there’s always a chance for a future release. McDonald’s has a pattern of testing products in one market before expanding them globally. For instance, the Squishmallow Happy Meals launched in the UK before arriving in the U.S., and the McRib, currently making a U.S. comeback, took a similar journey.
Meanwhile, U.S. McDonald’s locations are offering a new Pet Simulator Happy Meal starting November 26. While it’s a fun option, the Grinch’s mischievous charm is clearly stealing the spotlight overseas.
For now, those eager to join in the Grinch-themed fun can explore McDonald’s UK and Ireland websites, where holiday activities tied to the meal are available. So, while it may not be time to unwrap a Grinch Happy Meal on this side of the pond, who’s to say the Grinch won’t visit U.S. McDonald’s next Christmas? Never say never!
