I love pumpkin spice! It’s pure cozy nostalgia in a cup (or a cookie). Keebler’s fudge stripe pumpkin spice cookies blow my mind every year, and don’t even get me started on Pillsbury’s pumpkin cookies with cream cheese chunks. Every fall, restaurants roll out pumpkin spice favorites and new treats worth lining up for. It’s a delicious reminder that fall is just around the corner. But it can be hard to keep track of all the pumpkin spice, so we did the hard work for you. Here’s where to find all the pumpkin spice fast food items this year so far. As more items become available, we will update this article, so keep this bookmarked.
Starbucks
Starbucks is kicking off sweater season early this year with cozy flavors returning to both their cafes and grocery store shelves. On August 26, the classic Pumpkin Spice Latte makes its annual comeback alongside the Pumpkin Cream Coldbrew, Iced Pumpkin Cream Chai, and Pecan Crunch Oatmilk Latte. Newcomers to the lineup include the nutty-sweet Pecan Oatmilk Cortado and savory Italian Sausage Egg Bites. If you’d rather sip at home, grocery store aisles will be stocked with fall-inspired coffees, creamers, and more. All perfect for bringing PSL vibes to your own kitchen.
Dairy Queen
Launching August 29, Dairy Queen is bringing back a fan favorite just in time for sweater weather: the Pumpkin Pie Blizzard Treat. It’s their signature soft serve blended with real pumpkin pie pieces, then finished with whipped cream and a sprinkle of nutmeg. Joining the lineup are two sweet newcomers: the Caramel Toffee Cookie Blizzard Treat and the Maple Cookie Shake. The Caramel Toffee Cookie Blizzard Treat is a mix of chewy cookie pieces, buttery toffee, and caramel swirled into soft serve. The Maple Cookie Shake blends a maple cookie crumble base with milk and soft serve before topping it all with whipped cream.
Dunkin’
Starting August 20, Dunkin’ is rolling out its fall menu, complete with the return of fan favorites and a few new treats to try. Their beloved Pumpkin Spice Latte is back, available to order hot or iced, and is made with espresso, milk, and a blend of pumpkin spice and vanilla flavors. The Glazed Pumpkin Donut and Munchkins are also making a comeback, as well as the Maple Sugar Bacon, which you can enjoy in a breakfast sandwich, snack wrap, or on its own. Rounding out the returning lineup is the Pumpkin Muffin.
Dunkin’ also has several new items coming, including the Candy Bar Signature Latte and an Iced Pumpkin Loaf that’s perfect for pairing with your favorite coffee.
IHOP
Pumpkin spice lovers, rejoice! IHOP has officially brought back their legendary Pumpkin Spice Pancakes. Made with pumpkin batter and those cozy pumpkin pie spices we dream about all year, these golden stacks are pure fall comfort. Go big with four fluffy pancakes garnished with a creamy whipped topping or make it a hearty combo with two pancakes, two bacon strips or pork sausage links, two eggs your way, and hashbrowns.
Denny’s
Mark your calendars for August 27 because the fan-favorite Pumpkin Pecan Pancakes are making their delicious return! These pancakes are loaded with real pumpkin pie filling, topped with glazed pecans, and drizzled with a rich pecan pie sauce. If that isn’t pure autumn indulgence, then I don’t know what is! For a heartier option, try the Pumpkin Pecan Slam. It’s two buttermilk pancakes with pumpkin pie filling, two fresh eggs cooked-to-order, deliciously crispy hashbrowns, and your choice of sausage links or classic Applewood smoked bacon strips.
Krispy Kreme
Krispy Kreme kicked off pumpkin spice season with the return of their Pumpkin Spice Original Glazed Doughnut, but don’t wait too long. It’s only here for one week! Luckily, the rest of their fall lineup sticks around longer to satisfy your cravings. That includes the Original Glazed Pumpkin Spice Cake Doughnut, the creamy Pumpkin Spice Latte, and the cozy Pumpkin Spice Coffee. The latte blends espresso, milk, and pumpkin pie sauce, topped with whipped cream and pumpkin pie seasoning, available to be ordered hot, iced, or frozen. Meanwhile, the Pumpkin Spice Coffee pairs Krispy Kreme’s coffee with pumpkin pie sauce for a warm, spiced pick-me-up that you can order hot or iced.
McDonald’s
McDonald’s is joining the pumpkin spice party starting August 29 with not one but two cozy fall staples. The McCafé® Pumpkin Spice Latte is back, bringing freshly brewed espresso steamed and spiced with pumpkin and cinnamon flavors, available hot or iced. The Pumpkin & Crème Pie will also be making its grand return. This turnover-style pastry has pumpkin pie filling on one side, and crème filling on the other, all tucked into a sugar-dusted crust. Basically, the perfect fall treat pairing.
