Everything You Need to Know About Wetherspoons The Empire State
How to order The Empire State at Wetherspoons
The Empire State is available at the till, on the kiosk screens and through the Wetherspoons app, for collection or for delivery. It is filed under Gourmet Burgers. Branch by branch availability varies, which the app reflects once you choose a location.
Wetherspoons The Empire State price in 2026
There is no verified Wetherspoons The Empire State 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.
Allergens declared
Wetherspoons declares 5 of the 14 allergens UK law requires to be listed for this item: celery, cereals containing gluten, milk, mustard and sulphites (sulphur dioxide). It also lists sesame as a possible trace, meaning Wetherspoons cannot rule that 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
24g of sugar works out at roughly 6 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.
Salt worth knowing about
At 7g of salt it accounts for 117% 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.
Pro Tips for Ordering The Empire State
Ordering it
The figure in the table is the standard build. Anything added at the counter sits on top of it, and anything left out comes off, which is a normal request at Wetherspoons rather than an awkward one.
Protein for the calories
It gives 4.7g of protein per 100 kcal, against a menu average of 4.3g across everything we hold for Wetherspoons. That is a little better than the menu average, which matters more than the raw protein figure when you are comparing two items of different sizes. On raw protein it ranks 1st of 10 in its section.
What 1883 kcal means here
1883 kcal is a little above the Gourmet Burgers average. That is most of a day's energy for a smaller adult in one item, so treat the rest of the order accordingly. The 2,000 kcal figure printed on UK menus is a reference intake for an average adult, not a target, and it is the number these percentages are worked against.
