Elevated QSR Chicken Sandwiches

The McDonald's McCrispy is Arriving at Canadian Locations

The McDonald's McCrispy is a new menu item being launched by the QSR brand at locations in Canada for patrons to choose as an elevated take on a chicken sandwich. The menu item consists of a seasoned chicken breast that's cooked perfectly to keep the interior juicy and the exterior breading as crispy as possible. The chicken patty is served on a split-top potato bun along with shredded lettuce and a mayo-style sauce for a touch of creaminess.

The McDonald's McCrispy chicken sandwich is priced at $5.99 CAD, but can also be ordered as the McCrispy Bacon Deluxe for $7.69 CAD. This enhanced version of the chicken sandwich is paired with bacon and a fresh slice of tomato.
