Vanilla Milkshake

Updated 12 September 2026 · price from a third party listing
At 366 kcal, Vanilla Milkshake is the heaviest single item on McDonald's Milkshakes and Cold Drinks list. Updated 12 September 2026.
Deliciously thick, vanilla milkshake. Stir it, slurp it, love it.
The £2.29 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 Vanilla Milkshake
How to order Vanilla Milkshake at McDonald's
Vanilla Milkshake is available at the till, on the kiosk screens and through the McDonald's app, for collection or for delivery. It is filed under Milkshakes and Cold Drinks. Availability is set per branch, so a smaller site may not carry it at all.
McDonald's Vanilla Milkshake price in 2026
The McDonald's Vanilla Milkshake price in 2026 is £2.29 on the figures we hold, with branch to branch variation between £2.29 and £2.99. The figure came from a third party listing rather than from McDonald's, so read it as a ceiling. Within the Milkshakes and Cold Drinks section that puts it 5th of 8 on price. Expect more at airport, motorway and station branches than on a high street, and more again through a delivery app.
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.
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.
Where it sits on price
4 items cost less than this one in the Milkshakes and Cold Drinks section and 3 cost more, out of 8 we hold a price for. The closest thing to it on price is Chocolate Milkshake at £2.29, so those two are the real comparison when you are deciding.
What 366 kcal means here
366 kcal is well above the Milkshakes and Cold Drinks average. That is a normal single course for most people, and it leaves room for a side. 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 Vanilla Milkshake
Sizes and sugar
Soft drink figures scale almost exactly with cup size, so the published number tells you what the standard serve holds and nothing about the refill. Sugar free versions sit near zero on energy at every one of these chains, which is the single largest swap available on a drink.
A lighter choice in the same section
Coca-Cola Classic sits in the same part of the menu at 170 kcal, which is 196 fewer than this for £1.57. That swap is the single biggest change available inside this section, and it needs no substitution or special request at the counter.
Allergens declared
McDonald's declares 1 of the 14 allergens UK law requires to be listed for this item: milk. 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.
