We love December, not only because it’s the most wonderful time of the year but also because it is the most wonderful time of the year to eat. Here are some fast food holiday deals to get before it’s January and we hate ourselves for everything we ate.
Burger King
Burger King offers 31 Days of Deals throughout December, featuring digital exclusives for Royal Perks members (sign up on the brand’s website or the app). The deals include free food, new swag drops, delivery fees waived with a purchase and other discounts. To create a thorough holiday experience along with the deals, Burger King constructed the “BK Village,” an immersive experience in its app. Each day, users can open the mailbox at their digital holiday home to reveal one of the 31 days of deals to redeem.

The Louisiana chicken chain launched a Festive Family Box, in which customers can get four pieces of signature chicken, four chicken tenders, four regular sides and four biscuits for $20 at participating locations. The brand also announced another offering called Midday Mardi Gras Happy Hour, with $2, $3 and $5 deals exclusively for Popeyes Rewards Members. The deals are available each week between Monday and Wednesday, 2 – 4 p.m. The deal items include mashed potatoes for $2, frozen lemonade for $3 and snacks like three-piece tenders or two-piece signature chicken for $5.
Wendy’s
Every day through Dec. 29, Wendy’s spicy chicken sandwich is available for only $3.99. This deal is offered exclusively in the Wendy’s app.
Jack in the Box
From Dec. 1 – Dec. 24, Jack in the Box has 24 Days of FREE Gifts on its app. With a minimum $1 purchase, customers can enjoy different offerings. Sundays are for onion rings. On Mondays, it’s Jumbo Jack – the brand’s flagship hamburger. On Tuesdays, it’s two tacos. Wednesday’s offering is a milkshake. A free chicken sandwich is available on Thursdays. For Fridays and Saturdays, the brand has free fries and four-piece nuggets. Additionally, customers can get a fountain drink for $1 every day throughout the 24 days of deals.
Many fast-food restaurants offer seasonal items in addition to deals. Here are some chains with limited-edition menus.
McDonald’s
Starting Dec. 3, the boneless pork patty, the McRib, is available for a limited time. This year, McDonald’s even launched bottles of A Whole Lotta McRib Sauce to buy and it’s already all sold out. We carry a torch for their holiday pie, so be sure to get one of those.
Whataburger
Nothing is more Christmassy than a peppermint sweet. From now until Dec. 30, Whataburger is offering a limited-time white chocolate peppermint shake. The shake’s base is a classic, rich vanilla shake mixed with sweet white chocolate and cool peppermint. Coffee with white chocolate peppermint is also available.
Shake Shack
This year Shake Shack launched three holiday milkshakes:
Apple Cider Donut Shack: The base is apple cider donut frozen custard (apparently), adorned with whipped cream and cinnamon doughnut crunch.
Chocolate Yule Log Shack: The ingredients are abundant – chocolate frozen custard, pieces of chocolate cake, whipped cream, cake crumbles and festive sprinkles.
Christmas Cookie Shack: This is the simplest yet most classic option. It features sugar cookie frozen custard with whipped cream and holiday sprinkles.
Chick-fil-A
Peppermint lovers can also get their sweet treats from Chick-fil-A. The brand offers multiple peppermint items, including milkshakes (hand-spun the old-fashioned way), coffee, frosted coffee and ice cream.
