Wetherspoons, the popular pub chain, has announced a significant reduction in menu prices across 600 locations, effective from January 2, 2024. Customers can now enjoy pints starting at just 99p and several meals priced under £5. This limited-time promotion is set to run until January 15 in England, Wales, and Northern Ireland, while in Scotland, the offer will commence on January 3.
The promotion features a variety of enticing deals. For instance, a pint of Worthington’s beer is now available for 99p, and a 250ml glass of Coldwater Creek wine costs just £2.99. For non-alcoholic options, patrons can choose from a selection that includes Guinness 0.0, Corona Cero, and Brewdog Punk AF, all priced at £1.69.
Affordable Dining Options
Wetherspoons is not only focusing on drinks; it is also providing affordable meal options. Customers can find several meals for under £5, including an 11-inch Margherita pizza or a Crunchy Chicken Burger served with chips or a side salad, both now available for £4.99 with a soft drink. If a drink is included, the price rises to £6.42.
The menu also features a variety of jacket potatoes. A standard jacket potato with a single filling—options include tuna mayo, coleslaw, or roasted vegetables—costs £4.99 with a soft drink or £6.52 when paired with an alcoholic beverage. For those seeking something gourmet, the price for a gourmet jacket potato is £6.49 with a soft drink and £8.02 with an alcoholic drink.
While these offers aim to attract customers, it is important to note that prices may vary by location. Wetherspoons encourages patrons to check with their local branches for specific pricing, ensuring they do not miss out on these bargains.
This promotional effort comes amid ongoing discussions in the hospitality sector regarding competitive pricing and customer engagement. The move is likely to draw in cost-conscious consumers looking for quality food and drink at accessible prices.
As Wetherspoons continues to adapt to changing market conditions, this price reduction could serve as a strategic initiative to boost foot traffic and sales in the critical early months of the year.
