McDonald's Famz Peri Peri Gants Hill London

McDonald’s-inspired Halal alternatives across London

The struggle for economic justice by fast food employees working at mega-corporations like McDonald’s isn’t just restricted to the recent strikes in the US.

The last time workers undertook such action against McD’s in the UK was November 2019 when London-based employees protested for a raise in their minimum rates of pay.

To highlight this weekend’s protest for a similar increase in the federal minimum wage, here’s our alt list of Halal-inspired McDonald’s brands across London starting with Famz Peri Peri.

ABOUTLOCATION

Famz Peri Peri are the big boys in Ilford’s Gants Hill whose impressive menu, you might recall, we covered extensively in our article Family at the heart of Famz Peri Peri in London Gants Hill.

If you’re looking for a near perfect version of the famous Big Mac, look no further than Famz’s The Big Makk, which got the all-important nod from social media influencer and content producer ironically called @dabigmaks (see the video above).

But that’s not all, they also do the Single, Double or Triple Cheeseburger, a Quarter Pounder, and, if you want some spice to your meals, the innovative desi-inspired Kofta Burger.
