Could this BE any more nostalgic? McDonald’s Spain is serving up a slice of ’90s sitcom heaven with a new Friends-themed meal box. The fast-food giant is pivoting from its usual fare to celebrate the 30th anniversary of the show that taught us the importance of being there for each other—and the perils of leather pants.
This adult-oriented Happy Meal, priced at €9.50 (US$10) comes with more than just food. Fans can collect miniature figurines of all six main characters—depicting Rachel, Monica, Ross, Chandler, Joey, and Phoebe—while chowing down on classic McDonald’s items like the Big Mac, Quarter Pounder, McRoyal Deluxe, Chicken McNuggets, or McChicken.

Alongside the figurine, each box comes with a special Monica’s Marinara sauce, featuring an adorable image of the group’s resident chef.

To top it all off, McDonald’s has gone full meta with a promotional video featuring lookalikes of the Friends cast (plus a Gunther double) gathering and reenacting iconic moments at a life-sized recreation of Central Perk, complete with the signature orange couch.
Using their rewards, fans can also unlock memorabilia such as a Friends tote bag, a keychain of the iconic purple door frame, and a foldable Friends-themed playset.
On October 10, audiences will even get a taste of their favorite fictional coffee shop, as McDonald’s on Montera Street in Madrid transforms into a real-world version of Central Perk for just one day.
