More Wetherspoon pubs are reopening next week, with later opening hours - full list

Popular pub chain JD Wetherspoon is set to reopen even more of its pubs next week, with extended opening hours.

Spoons opened 394 of its pubs in England when the roadmap allowed outdoor hospitality spaces to reopen on April 12.

It will now be reopening 137 more across the UK in a phased roll-out, and as restrictions relax in Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland.

By the time the next phase is complete, 533 of the company's 871 pubs will be back open in some capacity, the Mirror reports.

All of the pubs that are back up and running will also extend their opening hours for an extra hour each day from April 26.

Wetherspoon pubs in England will be open from 9am to 10pm Sunday to Thursday, and 9am to 11pm Friday and Saturday, though some will close earlier.

Some 44 pubs in England will reopen for the first time next week, including The Paramount on Oxford Street.

Other new openings include branches in Guildford, Ilkeston, Lincoln, Morecambe, Camborne, Driffield, Nottingham and Reading, as well as London.

Wetherspoon will also go ahead with opening 60 of its pubs in Scotland and 32 in Wales next week and three pubs in Northern Ireland on April 30.

Wetherspoon chief executive John Hutson said: “We are looking forward to opening the extra pubs in England as well as those in Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland.

“We look forward to welcoming our customers and staff back to our pubs.”

The menus will be slightly reduced still, with orders preferably made through the Wetherspoon app for those who have a smart phone.

There are no booking systems in operation, and every customer is now required to either check in using the NHS Test and Trace app, or leave their contact details with staff.
