British pub chain Wetherspoon has announced the return of two absolutely beloved menu items months after making the appalling decision to axe them.

Returning to the breakfast menu is the smashed avocado muffin, an item that has been described as the "breakfast of champions."

The popular meal was reintroduced to the menu at the start of October and is selling for just £2.99.

The fan favourite is served with guacamole, pico de gallo and rocket. There is also the option to add maple-cured bacon or a poached egg to the order.

Another item that has been brought back is the chicken breast burger.

This burger comes with a side of salad and a soft drink for £8.19, but is also sold at £9.72 with an alcoholic beverage.

The items were reportedly only away for a short stint after being axed in May.

Responding to a request for comment from Newsquest, Wetherspoon spokesman Eddie Gershon said: "Wetherspoon is always keen to add new items to its menu and, on occasion, bring back some favourites.

 “We are sure that our customers will welcome the new additions to our menu.”

Have Wetherspoon stopped selling San Miguel beer?

This is not the only change that has been made to the Wetherspoon menu, with the pub chain also announcing that it would stop serving the popular beer San Miguel.

Instead of this, the pub said it would be serving Italian Poretti, something that costs less than £4 for a pint at most locations.

A number of other beers and craft beers are available to buy at the national pub chain, including Jaipur and Fierce IPA.
