Pub fans will be saddened to find that curries, mixed grills and steaks are not on the menu when Wetherspoon reopens across the country on April 12.
Instead, Wetherspoons chains will offer a reduced meal list when they reopen so staff can socially distance themselves.
The Sun reports that at least 44 meals are missing from the typical menu we’re all used to.
This includes most breakfast options, two of the usual chicken burgers on offer, and all of the curries and grills.
Some pub classics, including the steak and kidney pie and all-day brunch, are also on the menu.

Meanwhile, Wetherspoon is reducing the number of offers available, for example, which means pub goers can purchase a free drink with their meal.
The daily fish offer from 2 p.m. to 5 p.m., the Tuesday steak club, the Thursday curry club and the Sunday brunch offers will no longer be available – for now.
However, customers will still be able to take advantage of the Fish Friday deal with a complimentary drink offered with each serving of fish and chips ordered.
Plenty of burgers and pizzas will also still be available, but the number of toppings and toppings will be reduced.
If you’re not happy with the reduced menu, it looks like you’ll have to wait until at least June 21 – that’s when all restrictions will be lifted as part of the government’s plans.
There will also be new items on the menu if you’re feeling adventurous, including the Beyond Burger, which is plant-based and vegan.
If you miss a seat at your local Wetherspoons, you’ll have to wait until May 17th.
Pubs will have to offer table service. Wetherspoons customers can order their food on the free app, although a staff member will always be available for customers who do not wish to use it.
Diners can also use the app to view meal and beverage prices, which vary by location.

Wetherspoon spokesperson Eddie Gershon told The Sun: “We look forward to opening our pubs with outdoor spaces in England on April 12 and also in Scotland a few weeks later.
“We will be serving a fantastic menu throughout the day. We are reducing the menu slightly initially and look forward to delivering the full menu on time.
“Even with the reduced menu, customers can choose from dozens of dishes. ”
