A Burger King Favorite Is Making an Unexpected Return to the Menu

This time of year, fast food menus are packed with festive treats, from peppermint chip milkshakes at Chick-fil-A to holiday pies and new McFlurries at Mickey D’s. Roll up to any drive-thru, and you’ll find something seasonal and special to try.

But Burger King’s latest addition isn’t about holiday flavors—it’s all about bringing back a fan favorite that’s been on our minds for months.

Burger King Brings Back Churro Fries for a Limited Time

Burger King’s Churro Fries are making a comeback, and we couldn’t be more excited. Originally introduced as part of BK’s Halloween-themed “Addams Family” menu, they were called Gomez’s Churro Fries in honor of the spooky family—and they quickly became the star of the season.

The original dessert fries were made with crispy fried dough, dusted generously with cinnamon sugar, and served warm. According to our associate editor, Bailey Fink, who got an exclusive first taste, the new treats were “perfectly crunchy on the outside with a soft and pillowy inside.”

If Taco Bell’s cinnamon twists are any indication, fast food fans have a sweet spot for cinnamon snacks. So, it’s no surprise Burger King’s Churro Fries were an instant hit. Like many fans, we tried our best to get our fill in October, thinking the sweet and cinnamon-y treats would only be available for a short time. But now, we’re thrilled to have the fried favorites back for the holiday season.

When they first debuted, the churros also came with a chocolate dipping sauce, although not everyone agreed it was necessary. While some said it “absolutely makes the churro,” others felt the churros were strong enough to stand alone. It’s still unclear if the chocolate sauce is making a comeback alongside the crispy snack, but we have a feeling there will be a bit of online uproar if it doesn’t.

In fact, fans are already bargaining with BK to get these treats on the menu for good. “These need to be on the menu permanently, Burger King,” said the Instagram account Snackolator. “Don’t even think of taking these off—these are delicious.”

Whether you’re trying Churro Fries for the first time or reliving their cinnamon-sugar magic, this is a treat you don’t want to miss while it's around. The churros be available in 4-, 8-, and 12-piece packs starting December 19, alongside fan-favorite BK Melts in three savory flavors. Plus, they’ll be served all day, so you can satisfy your cinnamon-sugar cravings whenever they strike—morning, noon, or night.

But that’s not the end of the BK excitement for the season. While it might be too late to start on your BK Advent Calendar, there are 31 days of BK deals to enjoy this December, so stay tuned to make sure you don’t miss out on any sweet, seasonal news.
