What comes with the Pint of Doom Bar
- 01

- 02

The clean, lightly bitter finish balances the slight sweetness and completes the ale's smooth, refreshing character.
What the Pint of Doom Bar is like
Doom Bar is a balanced amber ale with a slightly sweet flavour rather than a strongly bitter finish. Roasted malt is the clearest note, with a touch of dried fruit alongside it. The amber colour matches that malt-led character, while the clean, lightly bitter finish keeps the sweetness in check. It is a sensible choice if those are the flavours you tend to enjoy in an ale.
Served cold on draught, it has a smooth, refreshing mouthfeel. That combination makes it approachable for someone new to ale without ruling it out for a regular drinker. Alongside food, the source description particularly recommends roasted meats, including Sunday roast beef or a mixed grill.
Is the Pint of Doom Bar good value?
At a typical £2.29, Doom Bar's value depends on your pub's price and how much you enjoy a smooth, malt-led ale. In our tracked drinks selection, it is the seventh lowest priced of the 15 items we track in this section. Prices are set locally, so check before ordering.
Compare it with Pint of Ruddles Best, Pint of Stella Artois and Pint of Guinness on the same drinks menu rather than assuming one is cheaper. Many mains can be ordered with an eligible drink, but check whether Doom Bar qualifies at your pub. That comparison is more useful than judging the pint price in isolation.
Pint of Doom Bar calories and nutrition

Calories for this pint are not verified in our data, so check the official nutrition information before using it in a daily total. There is no reliable figure here to compare with other drinks or express as a share of your intake.
If you order it with a meal, count the drink as well as the food. Sides, sauces and any further drinks change the overall total, so use the information for each item you actually choose rather than relying on the main alone.

Recipes and suppliers change, and kitchens handle all 14 major allergens. Always tell staff about an allergy and check the official allergen information before ordering. No dish can be guaranteed allergen free.
Doom Bar is listed as vegetarian in our data, but it is not listed as vegan. The recorded allergen is cereals containing gluten, which matters if you have coeliac disease or need to avoid gluten for another reason.
Check the pub's current allergen information before ordering if you have an allergy or intolerance. Choosing a different drink or changing food ordered alongside it can change the allergens involved, so assess the whole order rather than carrying this pint's dietary guidance across to other items.

What to order with the Pint of Doom Bar
Bowl of Chips
£3.49A bowl of chips is a straightforward choice if you want a side rather than a full meal alongside the smooth, refreshing ale.

Tips for ordering the Pint of Doom Bar
Check the price at your chosen pub before ordering, as the typical £2.29 is a guide rather than a fixed charge.
If ordering a main with a drink, confirm that Doom Bar is eligible and compare the combined option with ordering separately.
Use the current allergen information if you need to avoid gluten; our data lists cereals containing gluten for this pint.
Order at the bar or through the Wetherspoon app, checking the pub's current drinks selection rather than assuming the pint is available.
Choose it for roasted malt, slight sweetness and a lightly bitter finish; those are better guides to your preference than its amber colour alone.
