Last night, I went out with a friend of mine who was recently in Madrid and Barcelona. We got into talking about food and she mentioned that even fast-food restaurants are expensive!!! And so began our discussion on the price of a Big Mac meal or Whopper combo. It's been a while since I've gone into McDonald's or Burger King in Madrid, but I doubt that prices have skyrocketed like she's making it sound.
Could someone clear this up for me and tell me (in pesetas) how much a combo costs at "McBarf's" and "Booger King"???
I told her that I would find out by the end of the day!!!

It costs 645-695 ptas (with regular fries and a soft drink, water or beer). It's not expensive but I think a "menu del día" in most cafeterias and restaurants is a better deal. For 1100 ptas.(more or less) you have two courses, dessert, bread and a drink (and the tips is always optional).

Thank-you for your response, Castiza!
I e-mailed my friend with this thread, but she still says that when she was there, it was more than that! Oh well, some people are just too stubborn!

Hey SusiLaGallega, wooops! You may have claimed victory too soon. In the summertime, "MickyDs" and the "Booger Rey" always come out with their famed "Menús de Verano" and while the price is usually what Castiza said, in the summer it goes up to 720 pesetas. Hey, it is a bit more but you get free gum at "MickyDs". Plus, if you add extra large fries and drink, it can shoot up to over 800 ptas.

Nonetheless, that is only like $4 and last time I was in the U.S.A. it was much more than that for the combo.

I am in 100% agreement with Castiza on the "Menú del Día" instead. I go to a great place here for 900 ptas. and it used to cost only 800 until about a month ago.

Saludos,
