Walmart is now testing a new delivery setup where your grocery order can show up at your door alongside a meal from McDonald's in one single drop-off. And it is already happening in some areas.

What the rollout is all about

The change is tied to Walmart’s Spark delivery network, the system that powers its grocery and same-day delivery. Now, drivers are starting to deliver restaurant orders together with regular Walmart purchases.

There is one catch (for now): the restaurants have to be located inside Walmart stores. That includes chains like McDonald's and Dunkin'. So, if your local Walmart has one of those built in, your delivery options just expanded.

Orders started rolling out around mid-May. The flow basically has you placing your Walmart order and adding food from an in-store restaurant. A Spark driver picks up both and everything arrives together—groceries, snacks, and a full meal in one trip.

The bigger play here

Walmart has over 4,600 locations across the U.S. A lot of them already have restaurants inside. If this expands nationwide, it means Walmart could quietly become a major player in food delivery without building a new platform from scratch.

No separate app or switching between services. No extra delivery run. Just one ecosystem.

If this keeps expanding, “add fries to cart” might become a normal part of your grocery run.
