WETHERSPOONS has announced it is slashing the prices on seven popular drinks at 700 pubs next week.
Customers will be able to enjoy a pint of beer for as little of £1.79 from September 18.
The popular pub chain shared a list of the seven items on sale, as well as food offers punters can enjoy alongside their drinks.
The promotion also includes Ruddles Best, which is usually the cheapest beer at Wetherspoon pubs.
Wetherspoons confirmed the cheapest drinks in the offer are a pint of Ruddles Best and a single measure of Bell’s whisky, inclusive of mixer, which you can buy for just £1.79 from Wednesday.
You can also enjoy a pint of Bud Light lager, a pint of Worthington’s Creamflow ale or a pint of Stowford Press Apple Cider for £1.99.
And if you love Vodka, for the same price you can also get a single measure of Au Vodka or XIX Vodka, inclusive of mixer.
The pub’s new food promotions include a mix and match of chicken wings, bites and strips and Quorn nuggets.
The dishes will cost £2.99 each, but you can also mix and match two for £5.49, or get three of them for £7.49.
Wetherspoons has also extended the sale of two other meals – the Sticky Korean fried chicken bowl and the Sticky Korean fried Quorn ‘no chicken’ bowl – throughout the autumn.
Wetherspoon founder and chairman Tim Martin said: “Our pubs are known for offering excellent food and drink at great value-for-money prices.
“We believe a pint of Ruddles Best, as well as the other drink and food offer, represents fantastic value.”
This is the full list of items that will be discounted at Wetherspoons:
With the new offer, pub-goers can enjoy discounts of up to 42p.
Keep in mind that menu prices vary between pubs and locations, but this is the average price of the items before the promotion:
A spokesperson for the pub chain said there is no time limit on the new pricing, so punters can enjoy cheaper drinks any time from September 18 onwards.
On Thursday, Wetherspoons slashed the prices of its menu items to mark Tax Equality Day, a day serving to highlight the benefit of a permanent VAT reduction in the hospitality industry.
Mr Martin said: “The biggest threat to the hospitality industry is the vast disparity in tax treatment among pubs, restaurants and supermarkets.”
“We call on the chancellor to create tax equality between the hospitality industry and supermarkets.”
FREE refills - Buy a £1.50 tea, coffee or hot chocolate and you can get free refills. The deal is available all day, every day.
Check a map – Prices can vary from one location the next, even those close to each other.
So if you’re planning a pint at a Spoons, it’s worth popping in nearby pubs to see if you’re settling in at the cheapest.
Choose your day – Each night the pub chain runs certain food theme nights.
For instance, every Thursday night is curry club, where diners can get a main meal and a drink for a set price cheaper than usual.
Pick-up vouchers – Students can often pick up voucher books in their local near universities, which offer discounts on food and drink, so keep your eyes peeled.
Get appy – The Wetherspoons app allows you to order and pay for your drink and food from your table – but you don’t need to be in the pub to use it.
Taking full advantage of this, cheeky customers have used social media to ask their friends and family to order them drinks. The app is free to download on the App Store or Google Play.
Check the date – Every year, Spoons holds its Tax Equality Day to highlight the benefits of a permanently reduced tax bill for the pub industry.
It usually takes place in September, and last year it fell on Thursday, September 14.
As well as its 12-day Real Ale Festival every Autumn, Wetherspoons also holds a Spring Festival.
Wetherspoons recently revealed that small breakfasts would be reduced to £2.99 or less in 650 pubs across the UK.
This only applies to the small breakfast option but includes all the favourites in a traditional breakfast, with bacon, eggs, sausage, beans and a hash brown.
With this deal, customers save at least 35% whereas the breakfast would normally set them back £4.45.
For an additional £1.56, you can add a Lavazza coffee or Twinings tea with unlimited free refills.
This May, the famous pub chain also introduced a brand new menu with an additional range of dishes.
These include the Ramen Noodle Bowl (£6.99) and a Shawarma Chicken Wrap (£5.70).
The new menu also imitates up-market breakfast ideas with a Fiesta Brunch, which has a poached egg, toast, guacamole, pico de gallo, halloumi and salsa, all for the normal price of £4.36.
The newest member to the Wetherspoons menu is the Sticky Korean Fried Chicken Bowl, priced at £8.49.
Users took to Facebook to report the meal as “delicious” while one pub-goer bragged: “Tonight’s meal in The Society Rooms Stalybridge, pudding, chips, peas and gravy, Korean fried chicken bowl, double gin and tonic, and double rum and coke — all for under £22.”
