The Chicken McGrill burger lovers started a campaign #BringMcGrillBack, with netizens lending their support in signing the petition that was initiated by a fan in 2019. The campaign further found support from comic Abhishek Upmanyu and actor Neha Dhupia who also signed the petition and spoke about their love for the burger. Many more influencers such as JustJanvi, Aneesah Hukani, popular F&B blogger Aman Singhal, also took to their social media urging McDonald’s to bring back their favourite burger.

Wondering what happened next? Well, when large number of requests started pouring in, McDonald’s decided to listen to its customers and announced the reintroduction of the popular Chicken McGrill burger to its menu.

Tailored to the Indian taste palate, Chicken McGrill is made with a grilled chicken patty and tangy mint sauce, for an authentic and flavorful taste. Priced at INR 79, the burger is also available in Big Hug variant i.e. with an extra patty to ‘double’ the fun and experience.
