I've paid £4.10 for a pint in Belfast. You'd be lucky to get one for less than £3-£3.30 in a bar in town.

High Wycombe

Cheapest: Wetherspoons, circa £2 I think. I am looking forward to their cider festival, 12 ciders at £2.30 each

Most expensive: Wycombe Wanderers "Scores" Bar approx £4 a pint. And someone had a double gin and tonic once and it came to something stupid like £7!

Cheapest is whetherspoons. £1.85 for Fosters.
The dearest is in a "posh" part of town where some of the pints are £3.80.

Best value is a dive but they sell LCL for £2 a pint.

Cheapest around here is the Wetherspoons pub The Three Hulats, whereas at the Mustard Pot a few hundred yards/meters away it's more than £1.50 a pint more for the same drink.

Edit: The Nag's Head sells pretty cheap beer but none of the reguar brands available elsewhere, (They serve Sam Smiths and the ilk) and at times is cheaper than Wetherspoons.

When I'm at uni, the Penny Theatre does pints for a pound on Thursday nights. I've never found cheaper than that.

Most expensive...I don't really know because I try to avoid the expensive places. Last night in Tiger Tiger in Croydon they tried to charge me £4.90 for a bottle of bloody Magners! The most expensive I have actually paid is £3.70.

Nice deal! but really shouldn't they be selling them for 1p

I guess the government wouldn't allow that

You can sell a pint for whatever you want with the law how it is at the moment. They would still have to pay the duty though so would make a horrific loss.

jammy buggers, I used to dream of real ale....

25cl of French lager is about 2.50 a glass making it about £950 for a pint. Go to the Med or Atlantic coast and and it rises to between 3,50 and 4,20.

Stupid Frogs.
