One of the biggest perks that come with the Wetherspoons app is the chance to play the 'Wetherspoons game'.
First introduced to Wetherspoons punters in 2017, the app allows people to order food and drink to their table without leaving their seats.
The benefit of the Wetherspoons app, however, is that you don't have to be in the location to make your order.
In true British style, this led to quite the phenomenon: a bunch of random food and drink orders being placed by friends around the country for pals enjoying a pint.
The 'Wetherspoons game' has also taken this one step further, allowing strangers to also get involved.
So how can you play the Wetherspoons game? here's everything you need to know.
What is the 'Wetherspoons game'?
Wetherspoons The Game is a Facebook group that brings together thousands of strangers in the UK to try a fun challenge. Launched by Chris Illman, the group has exploded in popularity since its creation in 2018.
The aim is simple: You post your table number and location and see if you receive some fun food and drinks from strangers also playing the game.
According to the Facebook group rules:
1) Upload a picture of you and everyone you're with (Within the rules)
2) Include pub name, table number, location and any other information
3) Share your post wherever you like
4) Sit back and see if you get sent anything to your table :)

The Facebook page is full of cheerful selfies and table numbers taken in Wetherspoons haunts around the country. Some people are celebrating their anniversary or birthdays, while others have just finished work and could do with a drink. What's more, most people also offer to return the favour for orders they receive
The game has become so popular that today, one round of the Wetherspoons game was even being broadcast live on the Radio 2 Jeremy Vine show.
How to get involved?
To join the 159,000 people already part of the fun, you just need to log onto Facebook and join the group.

Once you've gained access to the Facebook group and downloaded the app, read through the rules and get posting and ordering.
It's all a bit of lighthearted fun, and with Christmas just around the corner, a great way to spread some festive cheer with strangers around the country.
