I rarely go to a pub just for a drink. We are in a local boozer.
This cost more than anticipated.
What do you reckon?

£6.50
£7.80
7.10
£7.40
Doesn't look like a Wetherspoons.
£4.50 for the appletiser 😉 same for the beer?
I was in Cheltenham the other day, small glass of red wine, vodka and coke £17.90
£7.70.
How does that work out?
£#sependswhereyoulive
£8.40
£8.10 and a 23p tip.
Table looks clean. Chairs not fashionable or shabby chic but comfortable and sturdy. There's a paper. So, £6.60.
Edit - glass looks plastic. £6.10
Next person has turned up and their lime and soda was 10p. Happy with that.
3.90 and 3.30 equals 7.20. Which was which I'm not sure
One of my locals you wouldn't get change from a twenty when buying a pint and a medium glass of wine. Have even heard of stories of people paying £60 for four "House" drinks.
I now go across the road £3.20 a pint and lovely sticky tables
Does 2 drinks count as a round ?
Don't kick a man when he is down
£10, £6.50 for the beer and £3.50 for the apple fizz
Would it not be more sociable to chat to whoever you're in the pub with instead of being on your phone? Though yes, I admit they may have just nipped to the loo, so apologies if this is the case.
Stay at home. I went to a Christmas party the other night at the NEC in Birmingham. Horrified when I got there to find no beer on draught..only 330ml bottles for £4.90 😩 after a few you're just like wth and flap the card on the machine aww to hell with it.
A bottle of beer over draught, an appletizer and a lime and soda? It's that time of the year again when amateurs are clogging up the bars for the pros!
Get uerself back home and blow the dust off last years Harvey's pale cream why don't you! 😉
Tappit would not have a poncy Belgian beer, so I'm oot guessing.
Does it matter? Just enjoy it whiles it’s there.

This, cos you won't be able to buy Belgian beer after Brexit. They won't want to sell it over here, oh no sirree.
£5.50 got the blue moon, £3.50 for the appletizer
Nearly died last year when 3 of us went for some 'in the cask' beers that turned out over £16 for 3 pints. 3 pints in the local by our caravan site in N Wales are about £8.70
That's nothing, one lad lucked out when his round of 5 lagers came to £8.50 on our annual pub crawl last Xmas. The rest of us weren't so lucky coz it was 5 points of McEwan's!
I felt aggrieved paying £5.05 for a pint (draught) of the very same beer on Friday night.
Don't feel so bad now.

But not the same 3 pints though 😉 £5.33/pint is cheaper than some places charge for crap larger
Currently in the nags head in the ding; most spendy beer on the board tonight is £9 a pint - not going near that!
Overall it's still cheaper than Brewdog 😁

Could be awesome though and last longer than a few glasses of wine!!
pint of orange juice and lemonade in the drunken duck, in the lakes was more than the price of a pint of expensive beer. Im used to down south prices but over a fiver £5.35 for a pint of orange juice and draught lemonade is over the top.
A couple of yrs ago in Mansfield in a Sam Smiths pub I had a pint of IPA for £1.55 - I thought the barman was joking. that's at least £3 cheaper than in my local in Hants.
Blue moon is made by miller. The only thing belgian or crafty about it is the branding
Which is why pubs are closing down at an alarming rate and at home drinking is getting problematic - 18 tins of Stella can normally be bought for £14 ish - the same as a small round in a pub. People then don’t go to pubs and sit at home drinking loads because it’s relatively cheap.

But the smaller venues I know that charge more for really good stuff are thriving, if all you want is units/£ then fine. Plenty of people doing flavour and taste for a far price.

Stopped making McEwans lager at least 15 years ago.
But not export.
Actually I think the lager is still produced too but I don’t drink lager so not sure.
I'm having my stag in Norway, anyone up for it?
Last night at Sheffield Academy a Pepsi and lemonade and lime came to £7.80. I did wonder if a beer would have been cheaper...
Fiver a pint is about the going rate here.
Pah, I went to a work event at a London hotel (Grosvenor House) last Monday. We were entertaining customers and bought drinks before the event. Single house G&T... £16. Ouch.
I don’t know how normal people can afford to go to the pub a couple of times a week for a few drinks, the price now is bonkers.
I don’t mind driving most of the time but it is also annoying that I can be spending more on a pint of Coke than a pint of beer.

You just need to skip your avacado and latte 😉
i was shocked to be charged £3.20 for a pint in a hotel bar in peebles, that's around 32 less than at home in a hotel, gotta love scotland
As long as it wasn't before lunchtime in 'spoons then it doesn't really matter how much it cost 😉

Yawn. How many pubs and bars could survive year round without the huge increase in takings they get during Christmas? Then there wouldn't be anywhere for pub bores to sit the rest of the year and put off other people from going in :-).

We survive on hot air and bollocks. Nov-Feb are the slowest months of the year.

Was 120 NK (£12) a pint the other year. And it was Norwegian beer which is pi1sh
Manchester has an 'app' for half price bar tabs/meal vouchers, which comes in very handy. £25 bar tab will just about get you two cocktails and a pint. It's OK when you've paid £12.50 for it, not £25. Managed a few good nights out on the cheap at some really nice bars.
My wife has also got onto the email circulars where you get invites to new bars or restaurants - that's been good, ranging from a number of free drinks to free meals and drinks.

I didn't imagine it. I did drink it though.
£11.60 for a bottle of magners and a pint of goose Island at the local de vere hotel was a bit of a shock
A good ale from an independent brewery in my regular haunt in Corsham is £4.20. They also do a loyalty card - couple of weeks ago, after not checking the stamps, my mate and I had an evenings free beer, that’s two pints each. Nice evening, that, I think we had Hobgoblin that evening. Last weekend it was a mixture of Hobgoblin and Pure Ubu.
I keep hoping they’ll get Dark Side Of The Moose back in...

Obvious troll is tiresome.
sounds like you lot need to learn to brave shitholes! 😆
Not looking forward to getting my round in. 😳
Edit , just noticed eastern Caribbean dollars phew.

Obvious troll is tiresome.
Excuse me? What the actual **** are you whittering on about?
Paid 4.50 for a can of shitty magners last night 😭
On the rare occasions I go to a pub, a double G&T costs about £10 when I can buy a whole bottle for £20!
I do wonder how they stay in business. Although to be fair my local was knocked down and converted into a row of terraced houses, so I suppose that answers my question...
down the bar for a swift halftime pint at Bristol Rovers on Saturday.
Quality local kegged pale ale: £4
Fosters: also £4
Heineken: £4.50
I didn't complain...
Local real ale bar near us charges £3.20 for most beers, some maybe a bit more. None over £5, even the 7% and over.
