Double Quarter Pounder with Cheese sits 12th of 12 on price in McDonald's Burgers section, at £5.89 and 749 kcal. Updated 12 September 2026.
We’re taking this classic and doubling it. Two irresistible 100% beef patties. Two slices of cheese. Topped with fresh onions, pickles and the delicious combination of ketchup and mustard. Please note onion is now added on to our beef burgers during cooking. We cannot guarantee any beef burger will be onion free, even after onion has been removed on request.
The £5.89 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.

Everything You Need to Know About McDonald's Double Quarter Pounder with Cheese
How to order Double Quarter Pounder with Cheese at McDonald's
Counter, kiosk and app all carry it. The McDonald's app adds collection and delivery. It is filed under Burgers. Branch by branch availability varies, which the app reflects once you choose a location.
McDonald's Double Quarter Pounder with Cheese price in 2026
The McDonald's Double Quarter Pounder with Cheese price in 2026 is £5.89 on the figures we hold, with branch to branch variation between £5.89 and £6.29. The figure came from a third party listing rather than from McDonald's, so read it as a ceiling. Within the Burgers section that puts it 12th of 12 on price. Expect more at airport, motorway and station branches than on a high street, and more again through a delivery app.
The most expensive in its section
It tops the Burgers list on price, out of 12 priced items. The dearest item in a section is not always the worst value, and the nutrition table above is the honest way to judge that.
Allergens declared
McDonald's declares 4 of the 14 allergens UK law requires to be listed for this item: cereals containing gluten, milk, mustard and sesame. 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.
A lighter choice in the same section
Cheese & Bacon McCrispy sits in the same part of the menu at 578 kcal, which is 171 fewer than this. That swap is the single biggest change available inside this section, and it needs no substitution or special request at the counter.
What 749 kcal means here
749 kcal is well above the Burgers average. That is a full meal's worth on its own, before anything else goes on the tray. 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.
Pro Tips for Ordering Double Quarter Pounder with Cheese
Ordering it at the counter
Ask for it without one element, or without a sauce, and the total drops below the published figure. Staff handle that request routinely. The number in the table is the standard build as McDonald's makes it. The item on its own rather than as a meal is the larger saving on both price and energy.
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.
