Cheeseburger

What is it?

Single beef patty, a slice of cheese, pickles, diced onion, mustard, and ketchup on a plain bun. There are no sesame seeds, lettuce, or special sauce here, just the core McDonald’s burger build, kept small and straightforward. The thin patty sits under the cheese rather than towering over it, and the condiments bring most of the flavour. On the UK menu, it’s the base burger in the line-up and the default Happy Meal option, sitting below the bigger burgers that add extra patties or more toppings.
