What comes with the Onion Rings (Six)
- 01
Thick-cut onion
The large onion rings have a soft, tender centre, bringing gentle sweetness beneath the crisp coating.
- 02
Seasoned batter
A light, seasoned batter coats each ring, adding savoury flavour and a crisp, golden-brown exterior when fried.
What the Onion Rings (Six) is like
These onion rings combine a crisp, savoury coating with soft, sweet onion, making texture their main attraction. The light, seasoned batter gives each bite an initial crunch before yielding to the tender centre. Thick-cut onion and generously coated rings make this a substantial-feeling side rather than a fine, delicate garnish. The sweetness comes from the onion, balanced by the savoury batter rather than a named sauce or topping.
Served hot with a golden-brown finish, the rings work well when you want extra crunch alongside a hearty main. A steak or beef burger is the clearest match in the description. Their contrast between crisp coating and soft centre is the main reason to choose them over a different side.
Is the Onion Rings (Six) good value?
These rings are worth considering if you want a crunchy addition to a main rather than another portion of chips. The typical price is £2.49, with prices set by each pub and varying by location. Among the sides we track, this portion is the third lowest priced of the 7 items we track in this section.
Six large, thick-cut rings give you a clear portion count when deciding what to add. Compare them with the Bowl of Chips if you are choosing a single extra, or the Bowl of Chips with Cheese if you prefer a cheese-topped side. Choose according to the texture you want, not price alone.
Onion Rings (Six) calories and nutrition
As listed, before any extra sides, sauces or drinks.
The six-ring portion contains 269 kcal, equivalent to about 13% of the 2,000 kcal daily reference intake. Within the sides we track, it is the second lowest calorie of the 4 items we track in this section. That figure covers the onion rings, not the main meal you might order alongside them.
Additional sides, sauces and drinks change the total, so consider the whole order rather than this portion in isolation. If you are adding rings to a burger or steak, include both the main and any other extras when comparing meals. Check the current menu information for anything else you order.

Ask staff about preparation and cross-contact concerns rather than relying on the dish name. Swaps, additions and accompanying sauces can change the allergens in your complete order, so check those separately too.
