How often do you buy a takeaway coffee? We all love a treat now and then but the cost of take out coffee from high street coffee shops can be ridiculous. Buy one of these every working day of the week and you’re sending around £15 just on drinks! McDonalds sell coffee too, at a much ore affordable price and it’s actually pretty good! Did you know you can also get a regular freebie too? Let’s first have a look at McDonalds coffee price and how much your caffeine fix will set you back at the golden arches.
What’s On The Menu?
McDonalds has all the options of coffee that you can expect from a coffee shop. You’ve got black coffee, white coffee and the likes of latte and cappuccino. All McDonalds coffee comes from arabica beans that are 100% responsibly-sourced and grown on Rainforest Alliance Certified farms. The milk used in McDonalds coffee is semi-skimmed, organic and comes from UK farms.

Now you know the McDonalds coffee price for all those drinks, you can figure out how much your regular coffee is costing you every week. You can also compare it to the likes of Starbucks and Costa and see the savings if you buy from McDonalds instead.
Let’s say you buy 3 cappuccinos a week. At McDonalds that will set you back £4.77 if we use the McDonalds coffee price above. Compared at Starbucks where the smallest cappuccino available costs £2.25. That works out at £6.75 for three of them. Costa is the same price. So by going to McDonalds you’ll save almost £2! Enough for another coffee with change.
Get A Loyalty Reward
You may remember the McDonalds loyalty stickers on the sides of cups that you could collect and claim a free beverage. You had to get six stickers to get a free drink. Well that peel and stick offer has ended. However, it has been replaced with an app version. A better one actually! Download the McDonalds app to your smartphone and you can place orders. These can be collected instore, brought to your table, picked up at the drive-thru or brought out to your car in a click and serve bay. Furthermore, when you order a coffee, you earn a loyalty stamp. When you have collected five of them, you get your sixth coffee for free. This pops up on the app as a reward for you to add to your basket and claim.
This means you could spend as little as £3.95 (5 single espressos) to get a free coffee of your choice. The average price on the menu is £1.22. So that works out at £6.10 for a free coffee. Whilst other coffee chains so offer loyalty schemes, you get a freebie more regularly by getting your caffeine fix at McDonalds.
As you can see the McDonalds coffee price is far lower than most other outlets and the bonus of a regular reward is a huge plus point. Next time you fancy a brew when you’re out and about, look for the Golden Arches to spend as little as possible.
