Wetherspoon is known for offering a similar service across the country with menus and drinks on offer, as well as house rules, roughly the same from pub to pub. But as well as the carpets being different in each branch, the cost of a pint can also vary - research has found.
Punters at The Wilfred Owen in Shropshire pay the least for the pint of lager at just £1.99 - whereas the same pint costs £5.99 at The Crown Rivers in Heathrow Airport. Pubs often have to charge higher prices in places like airports as their overheads are much higher.
Pantry and Larder have released a map of the price of drinks from every Wetherspoon in the UK. For example, a pint of Camden Hells lager cost £1.75 at The Cross Keys in Aberdeenshire, Scotland, reports The Mirror.
It comes as Wetherspoons boss Tim Martin has warned that pints could reach £10. Talking to Andrew Marr on LBC radio Tim said there were "no limits" on prices during the cost of living crisis when asked about price rises.
He said the cost of a pint of beer would "quite probably" reach £8 if things continue to go on as they are.

When questioned about the possibility of one day of the price reaching £10, he responded: “Andrew there are no limits.”
Tim said: "There are certainly some pubs that do that, and it’s gone up more than you would imagine.
"Around the country – I go around the country visiting pubs and talking to our pub managers – whereas it’s not a fiver in our pubs, it’s a fiver in a lot of pubs from Penzance to Wick at the moment.
"So yeah, the price has gone up a hell of a lot."
The cost of brewing, alongside everything else, has risen due to higher energy costs, inflation, and supply chain issues.
The price of a pint of beer has jumped by about 50p in just over 12 months, according to official data.
Taking into account the regional variations, on average, pubgoers fancying a draught pint of lager - which is the UK's favourite choice of beer - were facing a price tag of about £4.56 in May of this year.
According to Office of National Statistics (ONS) data, the same drink was around 47p cheaper a year ago in May 2022 at £4.09.
Month on month, draught lager saw a 0.5% rise from £4.54 in April 2023.
In January of this year, the Brewdog CEO James Watt said that if energy costs continued to rise the brand's popular Punk IPA beer would have to go up to £27.50 a pint.
Sadly, pubs and brewers continue to struggle and pub closures in 2022 were near the highest level in a decade.
The Mirror contacted Wetherspoons for a comment.
