Got circa 3.70 (or thereabouts) change from 20GBP for 4 pints of Guinness and one pack of crisp. So basically a billion quid for a pint.
Won't be bothering again.
A few of my friends always moan they don't have any money for this that and t'other (holidays etc) but happily spend 4/5 nights a week in the pub spending £20-30 a nightWon't be bothering again.
So you can go out, sit somewhere warm where someone is paying rates, rent, staff and having to buy the beer you are drinking and try and make enough to cover all that, socialise with friends from 7.30pm till 11pm and have 5 pints of beer and come home with change from £20 and you think that is expensive?
No wonder pubs are dying.

as someone who lives in greater london it does annoy me whenever I go into a pub in central london. £5 or there abouts for a pint, some places even more. It costs almost as much as the expensive tourist trap clubs in central london (i remember having to fork as much as £7-8 for a bottle of beer/alcopop in the late 00s).
Most pubs in london end up getting so busy you're drinking outside anyway, at £5-6 for a pint you might aswell go to the off license and get yourself some cans! £6 for 6 polish beers would do me for a night, but in a pub that's £30-35. Might aswell go to a curry house and spend the same amount in beers AND food, their drink seems cheap, or its BYOB.
