Everything You Need to Know About Wetherspoons Cheese meltdown burger (fried buttermilk chicken)
How to order Cheese meltdown burger (fried buttermilk chicken) at Wetherspoons
Counter, kiosk and app all carry it. The Wetherspoons app adds collection and delivery. It is filed under Gourmet Burgers. Availability is set per branch, so a smaller site may not carry it at all.
Wetherspoons Cheese meltdown burger (fried buttermilk chicken) price in 2026
There is no verified Wetherspoons Cheese meltdown burger (fried buttermilk chicken) price for 2026. Wetherspoons prices per branch and publishes no national list for it, so the accurate figure is the one your own branch shows in 2026. Any site quoting a single exact national price for this item is guessing, and we would rather show the gap.
Finding it near you
We list 819 Wetherspoons branches across 4 of the four UK nations, with the Birmingham postcode area holding the most at 29. Menus vary by site, so a listing here is national rather than a promise about your nearest one. The Wetherspoons app confirms it in seconds.
Salt worth knowing about
At 6g of salt it accounts for 100% of the 6g daily maximum the NHS recommends for adults, most of a day in one item. Salt in restaurant food is fixed in the recipe, so the only control you have is what else goes alongside it.
Fibre
13g of fibre is a genuinely useful amount against the 30g a day UK adults are advised to get and mostly do not. Very little on a fast food menu contributes here, so it is worth noting when something does.
A lighter choice in the same section
Cheese meltdown burger (6oz beef burger) sits in the same part of the menu at 1589 kcal, which is 136 fewer than this. That swap is the single biggest change available inside this section, and it needs no substitution or special request at the counter.
Pro Tips for Ordering Cheese meltdown burger (fried buttermilk chicken)
Ordering it at the counter
Ask for it without one element, or without a sauce, and the total drops below the published figure. Staff handle that request routinely. The number in the table is the standard build as Wetherspoons makes it. The item on its own rather than as a meal is the larger saving on both price and energy.
Allergens declared
Wetherspoons declares 3 of the 14 allergens UK law requires to be listed for this item: cereals containing gluten, milk and soya. It also lists celery, crustaceans, eggs, fish, mustard, sesame and sulphites (sulphur dioxide) as a possible trace, meaning Wetherspoons cannot rule those out. A declaration covers the recipe and not the kitchen, and every one of these chains prepares food in shared fryers and on shared surfaces. For a severe allergy the only reliable check is asking staff on the day.
Sugar in plain terms
17g of sugar works out at roughly 4 teaspoons. The adult reference intake is 90g a day and the NHS free sugars guideline is tighter at 30g, so one of these covers a real portion of either figure.
