Wetherspoons Chicken Menu 2026 — What's New

The 2026 wetherspoons menu new additions are most visible in the chicken section. Three new chicken deals have been added: Chicken and Tenderstem Broccoli (596 kcal), Chicken Pomodoro (470 kcal) and BBQ Chicken Melt. The Korean bowls have also been expanded. Most dishes include a soft drink — upgrade to alcoholic for roughly £1.50 more.

Quorn alternatives are available across most of the range, making this one of the best sections for vegetarians and vegans on the Wetherspoons menu.

Wetherspoons Chicken — Which Dishes Are Actually Worth It

The chicken section has quietly become one of the strongest parts of the Wetherspoons menu, and 2026 has pushed it further with three new deals. I've worked through a good chunk of it, and there's a clear split between the lighter, smarter dishes and the indulgent baskets.

On the lighter side, the new Chicken Pomodoro at 470 calories is the standout. Italian tomato sauce, roasted peppers, courgette and spicy rice — it's a genuinely different kind of dish for a pub, and at £8.99 with a soft drink it's one of the best-value lighter meals on the whole menu. The Chicken and Tenderstem Broccoli (596 calories) is similar territory, closer to a proper home-cooked plate than typical pub fare.

The Korean bowls are where the flavour really lives. The sticky Korean fried chicken bowl is the crowd-pleaser, but if you're watching calories the grilled version drops you from over 880 calories down to 641 with the coconut rice, while keeping that glossy Korean sauce. That swap is worth knowing about. The spice bags, borrowed from Irish takeaway culture, are a fun, messy, salt-and-chilli-heavy option that I'd happily order on a Friday.

The baskets are the indulgent end — boneless strips and bites with coleslaw, sauces and your choice of salad, rice or chips. They're good, but the chips versions push well past 1,200 calories, so go in knowing that. What I really rate across this whole section is the Quorn coverage: nearly every chicken dish has a Quorn alternative at the same price, which makes this one of the most genuinely inclusive parts of the menu for vegetarians and vegans. That's not always the case at pub chains, and it's worth crediting.

A final word on value: because almost every chicken dish here includes a drink and most have a Quorn alternative at the same price, this section works for mixed groups where not everyone eats meat. I've ordered for tables where one person wants the fried Korean bowl and another wants the Quorn version, and nobody feels short-changed. That consistency — same price, same portion, same care whether you order chicken or Quorn — is genuinely rare at this end of the market, and it's a big part of why I keep coming back to this section.

My Chicken Picks — Wetherspoons 2026

The new Chicken Pomodoro at £8.99 with a soft drink is the one I'd highlight most. Italian tomato sauce, roasted pepper, courgette, spicy rice and Tenderstem broccoli — at 470 kcal it's one of the lightest proper meals on the entire Wetherspoons menu. For a more classic pub meal, the Boneless Basket at £9.61 with chips is solid — southern-fried strips, chicken bites, coleslaw and BBQ sauce. Hard to go wrong.
