Wetherspoons hit with shortages as toast is temporarily off the menu

JD Wetherspoon is the latest chain to suffer with shortages as they have been unable to serve some customers toast.

A supplier of bloomer bread to Wetherspoons has had labour difficulties and one branch of the pub chain reportedly blamed Brexit as the cause of the supply problem.

Some customers aren’t able to have toast because of the lack of bread.

Their breakfasts make up a significant proportion of the sales.

One customer, who visited one of the Bath branches, told trade magazine The Grocer she was told the problem was down to a “shortage of drivers due to Brexit”.
