The majority of Wetherspoon pubs will be serving the meal over the Father's Day weekend for £9.99, if ordering a soft or non-alcoholic drink, or for £11.52 if ordering an alcoholic drink. Wetherspoon marketing executive James Vaughan said: "The Brunch Burger will return for one weekend only by popular demand. "I am confident that our customers will welcome its return to mark Father's Day." It comes after the pub chain added four new gourmet burgers to its menu last month, including a Cheese Meltdown, the Big Smoke, Buffalo and BBQ Stack. The new additions mean customers now have a choice of seven gourmet burgers to choose from in total, all of which come served with six beer-battered onion rings, iceberg lettuce, tomato and red onion, and chips or a side salad, on request. All of the burgers are made with 100% British beef and come freshly cooked to order, and traceable from farm to fork. Wetherspoon said the average price of a gourmet burger in 343 of its pubs is £10.19 with a soft drink, or £11.72 with an alcoholic drink, but prices may vary by location. Wetherspoon chief executive John Hutson added: "We are always keen to offer our customers the widest choice of good quality meals at value-for-money prices. "We believe the four new burgers will prove popular with a wide range of customers at our pubs."
