Depends the local freehouse charge £1.75 for a pint of caffreys, and stella they charge £2 a pint.

Another pub in my town is a real ale pub and they have about 20 different ales at any one time, the only pub I can get a becks on draught which was about £2.80 the last time I went in.

My local charges £2.49 for a pint of lager. Bitter is cheaper, sometimes under £2. Believe it or not, these prices have been hiked over the years since the smoking ban. It's a Holts pub (people in Manchester will know) and they used to be the cheapest pint in the country, but they divided opinion on taste. I used to refuse to drink the stuff, but was advised to give them a try a few years back as they had improved in an attempt to draw in new drinkers, after the smoking ban. Not a bad pint, in a really nice pub!

At these prices I think most pubs will be out of business within the next couple of years. It will be interesting to see what replaces them.

I never really worry about the price of a pint to be honest. I'll pay closer to a fiver tonight, and I paid under £2.50 last night. It all evens itself out. At the end of a night if its cost me £20 more for my drinks than in the local, then so long as I've enjoyed it, i can deal with that. The way I look at it is that your pint cost also covers being in the pub/bar. So if it's a nice place then so be it. What I hate is rubbish beer in paper/plastic receptacle and being charged over the odds. In other words, sporting events and the bigger concerts.

Drinking at home maybe? The way to go is a freehouse pub which often get the beer at a cheaper price rather than going to a leasehold pub which is often tied to a brewery.

At my local , £3.50 average depending on what you drink , about standard prices here in the south-east I would say, social clubs obviously less.

Lots of old pubs closing down too ...
