Wetherspoons is slashing the price of a pint to under £2 across 700 of its pubs nationwide next week.

The pub chain will be cutting the price of a pint of Ruddles Best from Wednesday, September 18 to just £1.79. Pub-goers will also be able to grab a single measure of Bell's Whiskey and mixer for the same price too. In addition to this, five other drinks will also have their costs cut with beer lovers able to get a pint of Bud Light lager, or a pint of Worthington’s Creamflow ale for £1.99.

Cider drinkers can get a pint of Stowford Press Apple Cider for the same price and if you love a vodka, for the same price you can also get a single measure of Au Vodka or XIX Vodka, inclusive of a 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.

The Korean fried chicken bowl consists of chicken strips and chicken breast bites, tossed in a Korean-style sauce, coriander, sliced chillies, served with a choice of chips or Coconut-flavoured rice. While the Sticky Korean fried Quorn ‘no chicken’ bowl, features eight coated pieces.

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.”
