Wetherspoons is slashing prices on seven alcoholic drinks next week.

Customers can grab a pint of ale and a rum and mixer for just £1.79, with the offer available in more than 700 JD Wetherspoon pubs from Wednesday (September 18).

The pubs will serve a pint of English ale Ruddles Best and a single measure of Bell’s whisky, with mixer included, for £1.79.

A pint of Bud Light lager, Worthington’s Cream flow ale and Stowford Press Apple Cider will also be available for £1.99, as well as single measures of Au Vodka and XIX Vodka with mixers.

The pub giant is introducing a new food offer - mix and match wings, bites and strips, with a choice of chicken wings, chicken bites, Southern-fried chicken strips and Quorn nuggets.

They will cost £2.99 each, two for £5.49 and three for £7.49.

Two other meals have also been extended through autumn - the Sticky Korean fried chicken bowl and Sticky Korean fried Quorn ‘no chicken’ bowl.

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.”

It comes after Wetherspoon launched a flash deal this week, with 7.5% discount on all food and drink, including alcohol, on Thursday - in its “tax equity day”.
