McDonald’s brings back nostalgic 90s favourite for six weeks only
MCDONALD’S has brought back a nostalgic 90s favourite for six weeks only – check how you can get it.
In the past, the fast food chain sometimes gave out special cups in Happy Meals – previous items have included Coca-Cola glasses and movie cups.
These were all limited-edition and only available in McDonalds but fans haven’t seen them for many years.
But The Metro reports that the cups are finally coming back to the fast food restaurant.
As part of its brand new Friends design, McDonald’s has new mugs for customers to collect.
If you have the McDonald’s App you could elevate your morning drink with this major friends upgrade – but there is not a way to just buy them.
As the only way to nab the four exclusive mugs is to win them when you purchase the McDonald’s friends meal using the app.
Each mug features an iconic friends design and there are 4000 available.
One mug shows off the orange couch, another has Monica’s yellow peephole frame, the third features the fountain from the opening credits, and the final one is adorned with the Central Perk logo.
These will have you saying, “How you doing?” to your morning coffee.
The new McDonald’s Friends Meal launched in the UK on February 3, 2026.
This limited-time promotion includes six unique figurines with one random character from the smash-hit show,
This means you cannot buy the statuettes separately, and each meal comes with one surprise character packed at random.
