“Can someone please explain what on Earth has happened to Wetherspoons prices?
“We went to spoons on the way home from Glasgow the other night just to grab something to eat because we had been drinking and realised we hadn’t actually eaten yet,” she said.
The self-proclaimed ‘food obsessed’ vlogger noted that while the burgers they got were nice but the onion rings were “absolutely cremated” - that the quality of the food was not the talking point for this video.
The foodie noted that the prices had gone up in the menu, and said normally in the UK, places round up prices for a more equal number but this was not the case in the pub chain.
“The point of this video is because for the first time in ages we’ve been to spoons and normally it’s like £1.29 for coleslaw, £10.59 for a burger and a drink - what the hell is this?
“£4.03 for soup, £5.54 for nachos - like what? £5.27 for a panini and a drink - what is actually going on?
“It continues throughout the whole menu, such bizarre pricing and even the side dishes, it’s 81p for a side of chilli and £4.03 for chips, like I just don’t understand it.”
The reason why the “bizarre” pricing doesn’t round up to the nearest 5p, is because of a recent price hike.
