If there’s one thing Brits love, it’s a visit to Spoons. Cheap food and even cheaper pints, what’s not to like?
And a visit is made all the better if your local happens to be one of the Wetherspoons pubs located in a cool venue — like the Opera House in Tunbridge Wells, or The Counting House in Glasgow which still has an old bank vault inside.
Many fans of the chain like to visit different ones around the UK, and if you’ve ever been tempted to see some of the best pubs Wetherspoons has to offer, then now’s your chance.
Travel company, MyUKTour, is launching the UK’s first ever Wetherspoons holiday.
The ‘once-in-a-lifetime’ trip would give fans a chance to tour some of the weird and wonderful locations, while also getting to see more of the UK and several historical sites.
There will be two different tours available, one southern (seven days, six nights) and one for northern parts of Britain (six days, five nights), but neither will come cheap, with trips starting from £1,800 per person.
But there’s a catch, this cost only includes one night of accommodation at a Wetherspoons Hotel. The other nights are paid for separately, and can be arranged by the travel company on your behalf, or you can sort it out yourself.
Highlights of the seven day tour will include The Winter Gardens in Harrogate, which is said to be one of the country’s most beautiful Spoons’ venues, as well as The Sir William de Wessyngton in Sunderland, (the cheapest Spoons’ in the north), and The Rochester Castle in Hackney, the oldest surviving Spoons’ venue.
If that weren’t enough, you’ll also get to visit Wetherspoons founder, Tim Martin’s, favourite Spoons pub along the way, experience Curry Club, as well as a Spoons breakfast, and play the iconic Wetherspoons game, where people buy food and drink for strangers.
The tours are customisable so you could add more locations, or include both northern and southern locations on your holiday.
Wetherspoons tour locations:
London, Cambridge, Canterbury, Tunbridge Wells, Exeter, Penzance.
It includes seeing eight iconic Wetherspoons venues plus The Tower of London, Kings College Chapel, Abbey of St Edmund, Canterbury Cathedral, Royal Albert Memorial Museum and Art Gallery and Pendennis Castle.
