Wetherspoons Jacket Potato Menu 2026 — Prices & All Fillings

Wetherspoons Jacket Potato Menu 2026 — Standard and Gourmet Options

I don't order the jacket potato at Wetherspoons often enough — that's something I'd admit freely. When I do, it's usually because I want something filling without going too heavy, and it consistently delivers. The standard jackets are simple and solid; the gourmet range is where things get interesting. The Loaded Spud is genuinely worth ordering: garlic butter melted right into the potato, proper cheese, crispy bacon and sour cream. It's the kind of topping you'd expect to pay significantly more for.

All jacket potatoes include a drink in the price and come with a side salad. Extra fillings can be added to standard jackets for 99p each. Prices may vary slightly by pub location.

Wetherspoons Jacket Potatoes — Underrated Comfort Food

I don't order the jacket potato at Wetherspoons nearly as often as I should, and every time I do I remember why I should more. It's filling, it comes with a side salad and a drink, and the gourmet versions are genuinely good comfort food rather than an afterthought stuck on the menu.

The standard jackets are simple and honest — tuna mayo, cheese, beans, coleslaw, all the classics — and the beans and Mediterranean veg fillings are among the lowest-calorie main meals on the entire menu at under 480 calories. If you're trying to eat a bit lighter without resorting to a salad, a baked beans jacket is a genuinely sensible order that costs around £4.99 with a drink.

The gourmet jackets are where it gets interesting. The Loaded Spud is the one I'd push people towards — garlic butter melted right into the potato, melted Cheddar, crispy maple-cured bacon and sour cream. It's indulgent in the best way and the kind of thing you'd pay a lot more for somewhere trying to be fancy. The Mexican Spud, with chilli bean, guacamole and crushed tortilla chips, is the best vegetarian gourmet option and a bit lighter.

A couple of practical points. Extra fillings on the standard jackets are only 99p, so you can build a decent loaded potato cheaply if you want to. And because every jacket comes with a side salad already, it's a more balanced plate than a burger and chips without feeling like a compromise. For the price, the filling factor, and the calorie flexibility, the jacket potato deserves a lot more attention than it gets — it's quietly one of the smartest orders on the menu.

For families or groups, the jacket potato is also one of the easier orders to get right — there's a filling for almost everyone, the side salad is built in, and the calorie range from a light beans jacket to the loaded gourmet version means you can match it to whatever appetite you've turned up with. It's the kind of dependable, no-drama order that I've come to appreciate more the more often I visit.

My Jacket Potato Picks — Wetherspoons 2026

The Loaded Spud at £6.49 with a soft drink is the gourmet jacket I'd order every time. Garlic butter melted into the potato, melted cheese, crispy maple-cured bacon and sour cream — it's a proper meal that most people walk straight past on the menu. For something lighter, the baked beans jacket at 462 kcal is the most calorie-conscious main meal option on the entire menu, and there's nothing wrong with a perfectly baked potato with baked beans when it's done well.
