Americano
£1.79*
35 kcal
Updated 12 September 2026 · price from a third party listing
Americano is the lightest thing in McDonald's Saver Menu section at 35 kcal. Updated 12 September 2026.
Our coffee is made with freshly ground Arabica beans from Rainforest Alliance Certified Farms™ and blended with hot water for a rich taste. Optional syrups available with this drink in regular size: Vanilla 150kJ 35kcal, Salted Caramel 156kJ 38kcal.
The £1.79 figure came from a third party listing rather than from McDonald's, which means it may reflect a delivery menu. Delivery prices sit above in restaurant prices before any fee is added, so treat this as the ceiling rather than the till price.
Allergens McDonald's declares
None of the 14 regulated allergens is listed as an ingredient.
May contain traces

Everything You Need to Know About McDonald's Americano
How to order Americano at McDonald's
Counter, kiosk and app all carry it. The McDonald's app adds collection and delivery. It is filed under Saver Menu. Availability is set per branch, so a smaller site may not carry it at all.
McDonald's Americano price in 2026
The McDonald's Americano price in 2026 is £1.79 on the figures we hold, with branch to branch variation between £1.79 and £2.39. The figure came from a third party listing rather than from McDonald's, so read it as a ceiling. Within the Saver Menu section that puts it 5th of 10 on price. Expect more at airport, motorway and station branches than on a high street, and more again through a delivery app.
Allergens declared
McDonald's lists none of the 14 allergens UK law regulates as an ingredient of this item. It does list milk as a possible trace, meaning McDonald's cannot rule that out. A declaration covers the recipe and not the kitchen, and every one of these chains prepares food in shared fryers and on shared surfaces. For a severe allergy the only reliable check is asking staff on the day.
Diet marking
McDonald's marks this as vegetarian. That is the chain's own classification of the recipe rather than a statement about how it is cooked, and vegan marking in particular sits alongside shared equipment at most of these brands.
What 35 kcal means here
35 kcal is well below the Saver Menu average. On its own it is a small addition to a day rather than a meal. The 2,000 kcal figure printed on UK menus is a reference intake for an average adult, not a target, and it is the number these percentages are worked against.
Finding it near you
We list 119 McDonald's branches across 4 of the four UK nations, with the Leeds postcode area holding the most at 9. Menus vary by site, so a listing here is national rather than a promise about your nearest one. The McDonald's app confirms it in seconds.
Pro Tips for Ordering Americano
Ordering it the way you want
Size and milk are the two levers on a drink like this, and both move the calorie figure more than any syrup does. A smaller cup with semi skimmed milk lands well below the same drink made large with whole milk. McDonald's publishes figures for the standard build, so any change you ask for moves you off the number in the table above.
Where it sits on price
4 items cost less than this one in the Saver Menu section and 5 cost more, out of 10 we hold a price for. The closest thing to it on price is Coca-Cola Classic Small at £1.57, so those two are the real comparison when you are deciding.
