Wetherspoon is bringing back one of its much-loved menu items to pubs across the country this month. The Brunch Burger will be back in branches in time for Father's Day.

It's not the first time the meaty burger has made a triumphant return to the pub chain, having re-appeared last year after a ten-year hiatus. The burger features a combination of a three-ounce beef patty, American-style cheese, maple-cured bacon, a free-range fried egg, and a hash brown, all served with a side of chips.

Packed with 1,234 calories, the burger can be enjoyed as part of a meal with a soft drink for £7.73, while the average price with an alcoholic drink is £9.26. Wetherspoon-goers took to X, formerly Twitter, to call the burger "amazing", "legendary", and "always a winner".

Wetherspoons locations will serve the burger for three days only between Friday, June 14 and Sunday, June 16. The pub chain's marketing executive, James Vaughan, said: "The brunch burger will return by popular demand for one weekend only – and I am confident that customers will welcome its return to mark Father's Day."

Fans of the burger will be able to get it outside of breakfast hours too, with the meal available from 11.30am until 11pm.
