A Wetherspoons worker has shared a ‘secret’ dish that everyone should order when they visit the pub chain and she claims it’s better than one of the UK’s favourite restaurants
Wetherspoons fans will be delighted to discover there’s a hidden £7 meal available to order, which reportedly tastes better than the popular restaurant chain Wagamama’s. The pub chain, renowned for its budget-friendly drunks, apparently also serves up affordable and delicious grub.
A Wetherspoons employee has now revealed information about one particular dish that punters rarely seem to request, yet remains a personal favourite of hers. Macey Newberry took to TikTok to discuss the secret menu item with her followers, explaining: “This was my go-to.”
The Wetherspoons staff member could be spotted enjoying a bowl of chicken ramen, priced at just £7. The meal consists of broth, noodles, chicken and vegetables – everything you’d typically anticipate from a ramen dish.
She continued: “If you were to get a ramen anywhere else in England, like a Wagamama, you’d be paying at least £11 or £12.
“So, for seven quid I can hand on heart say this is better than a Wagamama.”
Macey claimed the Wetherspoon creation boasts “depths of flavour” and likened Wagamama’s offering to “dishwater”.
The clip has amassed more than 200,000 views and gathered over 9,000 likes so far.
Viewers took to comment on Macey’s video, with people split over the food item.
One individual commented: “The noodles are way too soggy I found.”
Another remarked: “It has no flavour! I work in Spoons so maybe it’s just our pub.”
A third added: “I work at Wetherspoons but the food gets boring after a bit.”
One user expressed their apprehension, commenting: “Always wanted to try it but so scared it will taste bad, like curry/chicken potnoodles/super noodles ect. please confirm it doesn’t taste like that.”
However, many others were in agreement with the Wetherspoons employee and had nothing but praise for the dish.
A fan of the dish commented: “I love it! Way better than the Wagas chicken ramen. The Spicey one slaps though.”
Another chimed in: “It looks like it has a lot more flavour than wagas ones.”
A third added: “I’ve been wanted to try it for ages, you’ve twisted my arm I’m defo gonna have to try it now.”
A fourth customer shared: “Had this couple weeks ago and it slapped not gonna lie.”
For those who fancy an extra kick to their Wetherspoons ramen, Macey suggested adding garlic chilli sauce to the dish.
