🔥 Most Popular Hamburger University Items
If you are visiting the Hamburger University menu location for the first time, prioritize the international items, as they cannot be found anywhere else in the US.
- 1955 Burger (Germany): This is the top-rated global item. The combination of grilled onions and smoky sauce gives it a steakhouse vibe that beats the standard Quarter Pounder.
- Chicken McArabia (Middle East): A lighter, flavorful option. The flatbread (Arabic bread) offers a completely different texture than the standard buns, and the garlic sauce is potent and delicious.
- Big Mac®: Even at a global location, the Chicago-born Big Mac remains a top seller for those wanting a reliable standard.
- 280 Dijon Burger (France): A hit for cheese lovers, featuring a ciabatta roll that holds up well against the juicy patty and rich Dijon sauce.
- Onion Rings (Australia): A rare side dish at US McDonald’s. These are often praised for being crispier than competitors like Burger King.
