McDonald’s is now offering Happy Meals designed for adults, complete with toys. Adding to the excitement, the beloved TV series Friends has its own collectible series available—though for now, it’s exclusive to one fortunate region.
Following the internet sensation surrounding the Grimace Shake, McDonald’s has continued to innovate and attract loyal fans. Collaborations with renowned personalities such as Kai Cenat, along with partnerships involving BTS and even Nintendo, have consistently bolstered the brand’s popularity.
Now, McDonald’s is expanding its offerings with a limited-time partnership featuring one of television’s most celebrated shows. The ‘Friends Box’ has landed on the menu, and true to form, it also includes collectible toys.
This adult-themed Happy Meal is packaged in a uniquely designed box, showcasing Friends artwork on one side and an array of meal choices on the other. Diners can indulge in favorites like the iconic Big Mac, McRoyal, among other tasty options.
In an exciting twist, McDonald’s Senior Marketing Director, Guillaume Huin, has disclosed that the meal features a “special sauce inspired by Monica’s acclaimed culinary talents.” A closer inspection of the promotional image confirms that the sauce is none other than Monica’s Marinara.

At this point, the Friends Box is exclusively available at McDonald’s locations in Spain, leaving fans in other countries disappointed. For those fortunate enough to be in the right area, the meal can be purchased for €9.50.
Collectors are eager to snag this item multiple times to complete their set of six core cast member toys. Joey, Chandler, Ross, Phoebe, Monica, and Rachel are all included, so aficionados will need to buy at least six of these adult Happy Meals to gather the full collection.
The buzz on social media has been phenomenal, with numerous fans describing it as “brilliant” and urging McDonald’s to expand the availability to other markets promptly.
Comments such as, “I’d love to see this come to other countries,” “Definitely jealous,” and “My brother in Christ, I need this in the United States of America,” reflect the widespread enthusiasm.
Currently, there has been no announcement regarding whether the Friends Box will be introduced in other regions. Typically, limited-time promotions remain regional during their availability, but we will provide further updates if any new information arises.
