The popular pub chain hinted at price increases during its trading update to investors in January. It marks the second time in a few months that Wetherspoons has upped its prices as a direct result of inflation, which currently sits at 10.5%.

The Sun revealed the price rise after visiting the chain’s Oxted Inn branch in Surrey last, although prices vary across Wetherspoons around the UK.

It comes after the chain increased the costs in 15 of its central London locations in November 2022,  with the price of its guest ale rising by around 29% from £3.39 to £4.39.
