Burger King has rolled out its fan-favorite Your Way $5 meal - here's what to expect

Burger King's new $5 value meal deal has landed in restaurants - and it beats McDonald's version in several key ways. 

The $5 Your Way Meal - which was last sold for a limited time in selected parts of the US in 2023 - is now available across the US for the summer. 

Fast food fans get a choice of one of three sandwiches - a Whopper Jr, a Bacon Cheeseburger or Chicken Jr - plus four chicken nuggets, fries and a soft drink. 

Chains are reeling from falling customer numbers as Americans fed up with two years of price rises stay away - so are rolling out offers.

BK's deal comes as McDonald's plans an almost identical $5 meal bundle from June 25 for a month. 

Customers at the Golden Arches will get a either a McDouble or McChicken sandwich, fries, soft drink and four McNuggets.

But fast food fans say the BK deal has key advantages over its rival. 

It lauches soon, runs for 'several' months rather than just one and is tipped to be at almost all outlets. 

DailyMail.com reported last week that not every McDonald's restaurant will offer the deal - with those that have higher labor and rent costs opting out.

We also told how the deal will only last for a month from June 25 - rather than all summer.

'Burger King is the king for a reason! Great that this runs most of the summer - and I heard it is in all its restaurants, not just some,' said fast food fan Andrea Smith. 

US fast food chains are in a tussle to attract customers back.

Wendy's has launched a $3 breakfast meal - as a fast food price war looks to be heating up. 

McDonald's missed profit estimates for the first time in two years in its latest quarter, with the company saying consumers turned 'more discriminating with every dollar they spend.'
