Seafood, But Make It McDonald’s: A New Limited-Time Menu Lands in UAE

Here’s something you might not expect to see on the McDonald’s menu: a shrimp burger, crispy fish tempura wrap, and Fish & Fries.

Starting October 12, McDonald’s UAE is launching its Seafood Festival, a limited-time menu created for seafood lovers and anyone curious enough to try something different from their usual McDonald’s order.

At the heart of the lineup is the new Shrimp Burger, featuring a shrimp patty with a choice of classic tartar or spicy sauce. Seafood fans can also try the Fish Tempura Wrap, made with crispy Fish Tempura, lettuce and a choice of tartar or spicy sauce, or go for a Fish & Fries meal, pairing two portions of Fish Tempura with McDonald’s iconic fries.

Whether you already love seafood or have never tried it at McDonald’s before, this is your chance to dive in. The Seafood Festival lands at McDonald’s UAE restaurants and on the McDonald’s App on October 12 and will be available until November 22.

About McDonald’s UAE:

Operating in the nation since 1994, McDonald’s UAE caters to the local community across more than 200 restaurants, geographically located to service customers in many areas. McDonald’s UAE is committed through its food safety promise, to maintaining the highest quality of products served at each restaurant, and across its McCafé offering. In 2024, McDonald’s UAE was named as the first best workplace in the UAE and ranked as the second-best workplace for women in the GCC by Great Place to Work.

McDonald’s UAE prides itself on being a local member of the community and has been committed to its role as a responsible corporate citizen since its arrival to the nation. Following an active social responsibility agenda, it is a long-standing partner of Emirates Red Crescent supporting its charitable and humanitarian initiatives.

To further contribute to the wellbeing of the communities, creating wider environmental benefits, McDonald’s UAE and Emirates Environmental Group work in tandem to spread green values and bring to life sustainable initiatives, reducing the nation’s carbon footprint. Driving this is the launch of its biodiesel initiative in July 2011, which sees 100% of McDonald’s UAE’s used cooking oil collected from restaurants and converted into 100% biodiesel, in turn powering the company’s logistics fleet. As a result, the trucks have travelled over 28 million km on 100% Biodiesel since the partnership began, saving over 26 million kg CO2e emissions.
