Ah yes, my local last year was a Holts pub with similar prices. Holts is lovely lager too. I never understood how they made any money, its an enormous building, must cost a fortune to maintain. We used to find it most amusing to put ridiculous rave music on the jukebox whilst surrounded by regulars at least twice our age.

The local near uni is £2.49 for Carlsberg. Union bar was £2.30 last year but they seem to put it up very often. When I started at uni it was £1.60!

Visiting friends down South I am always staggered at paying £3.50-£4 in a pub. Having said that a mate's local in London was £2 for certain pints, though that was a student pub.

In my day a pint in the Students Union at Manchester University was about 70p. In the Poly (now the Metropolitan University) it was 60p. And in those days, that was about all we could afford.

In the "local" pubs, I think it's about £2.60 for a pint of bog standard (tennents or carling) lager.

In the trendier bars it usually sits about £3.20 - £3.40.

I live in Glasgow.....

Last time we were up visiting family found very little difference between prices in Glasgow and South East, just outside London. Over £3 a pint and that was local out of city centre pubs.

Supermarket prices have, and will continue to, kill pubs until they are made to pay sensible prices.The city pubs charging ridiculous prices will suffer in the long run, leaving only the likes of Weatherspoon's with their bulk buying as they will price themselves out of the market.
By then it will be the death knell of British pubs and most people will be drinking at home,which is worst and unsupervised. At least a landlord will turf you out if you've had too much!
The tax on beer, in particular, is farcical and is now viewed as badly as speed trap fines. The trade is dying on it's feet.

Our local bowling club has John Smiths for £2.45 and a couple of lagers for 10p more.

I can't understand how bars in airport departure lounges are allowed to charge such inflated prices for beer.

In the bar in my missus's village in Ukraine the beer is around 45p for 1/2 litre (just shy of a pint) and it's really nice. At the umbrella bars in Kiev the same drink is around 80p but at the airport it's well over a fiver. That's a big mark up.

Just flown back from Majorca at half term and Carling in the airport was £4.50 a pint. Tooooo expensive!!

I'd be more than happy with that! In the pubs round here it tends to be around £3.70 a pint.
