One foodie shared his amazement at his food being delivered to his partner on a patterned red plate rather than Wetherspoons’ usual blue plate.

The woman sent a photo of the unexpected dishes to Reddit and captioned it: “My boyfriend got a red plate at Wetherspoons.”

They added: “The spoon plates are always blue, I’ve never seen a red one before.”

And she’s not the only person who has received one over the years, with others claiming it has happened to them too.

People were quick to wonder amazed, with one writing: “ YOU GOT THE RED PLATE! .”

A second commented: “If you pick up the red plate in spoons, take it to the bar afterwards and get a free drink.”

And a former Spoons employee said he had never seen one while working at the network.

But what does it mean?

One person suggested: “Are you the millionth customer?”

And one of them wrote: “I think you accidentally entered an alternate dimension.”

Fortunately, a Wetherspoons spokesperson cleared up the mystery for the Daily Star.

They said: “Wetherspoon tested a red plate on a small number of pubs for use in children’s meals, to ensure that all children’s meals were served on a cold plate.

‌“The company has evolved since then and has just launched a melamine plate for the entire children’s menu that is in line with the design of the children’s menu.

‌”But there will be stock of the old red plate in circulation, until they break.

A spokesperson said Wetherspoons has trialled red children's plates and some locations have old stock still in circulation.

‌”There are no plans to change the standard blue pattern plate anytime soon.”

We shared how Wetherspoons has added four new drinks to its menu in a huge shake-up – and it’s sure to be a hit with punters.

The pub chain has introduced new drinks to its core bar offering.

And is it good News for those who don’t drink or want to reduce their consumption of alcoholic beverages, as they all have low alcohol content or no alcohol.

Fans will now be able to purchase Corona Cero, Thatchers Zero%, Guinness 0.0 and Adnams Ghost Ship in all 809 Wetherspoons branches.

Corona Cero is a non-alcoholic beer from Corona, produced with 100% natural ingredients.

For those who like the taste of cider but don’t want the drink, Thatchers Zero% is a variation on the classic apple cider.

Guinness 0.0 has the same smooth taste, balanced taste and unique dark color as Guinness, but without the alcohol.

Adnams Ghost Ship is a low-alcohol version of the Southwold brewery’s citrus pale ale.

The drinks join six other low and no alcohol drinks already on the Wetherspoons menu, including Heineken 0.0.

How to save money at Wetherspoons

WETHERSPOONS is known for its low prices, but there are ways to spend even more money at the chain.

Every year, Spoons holds its Tax Equality Day to highlight the benefits of a permanent tax bill reduction for the pub industry.

It usually takes place in September, and last year it fell on Thursday, September 14th.

As well as the 12-day Real Ale Festival every autumn, Wetherspoons also holds a Spring Festival.

Wetherspoons is known for its meal deals that run throughout the week.

These include Tuesday’s Steak Club, Thursday’s Curry Club and Fish Friday.

For example, a standard meal of curry with an alcoholic drink costs between £8.55 and £9.19.

Outside of the deal, you’d expect to pay around a fiver more for the same meal.
