How we worked this out

We read menus from venues’ own websites, as they publish them, between 13 and 16 October 2026. Each menu counts once, prices as printed. A chain’s branches that serve the same menu count as one menu. We never name a venue: every figure here is a median, a range or a share, with the number of menus it rests on.
