"In addition cappuccino in our pubs will be 50p cheaper than McDonalds and our customers can have free refills too.

"Our prices are also lower than Domino’s Pizza for an 11 inch pizza.

"The 11 inch Margherita pizza and soft drink is £3.99 at Wetherspoon versus Domino’s Pizza two topping 11.5 inch pizza deal (no drink) at £5.99.

"A Domino’s Pizza Mighty Meaty 11.5 inch pizza meal deal costs £9.99 (no drink) compared to the Wetherspoon Spicy Meat Feast at £5.99 (including soft drink), a saving of £4."
