    £5.50 for a pint of Moretti & even £6.40 for a nice pale ale.

    £3 to £4
    As the price goes up the less I drink in a pub. Used to be 6 to 7 pints, now it 3-4.
    Do you want your money back, and a bit more, search for 'money claim online' - They don't like it up 'em Captain Mainwaring

    Pubs local to me fit the £3-4 range at the moment - but only just, and it's cask bitter, guiness and lagers are more expensive. I do know one fairly local pub that is somewhat cheaper, but it's a free house rather than a tied (Enterprise Inns etc) or managed (Shepard Neame etc) pub. About 6 months ago I was in a Sheps pub near Goudhurst where the sptfire bitter was £4 compared (at the time) to £3.60 nearer home - but even nearer home now is £3.80-90. The odd one out are Marstons Inns, where the bitter is not much over £3/pint (and the food is good value too).

    Think them prices are high..just check out the prices in the Albert on Eastenders.

    Amazing that they can afford to drink in there...:beer:

    Yeah but they'v all got good incomes; nobody makes a breakfast at home- they're always down the caff. Or taking their laundry down the laundrette or shopping at stalls instead of shops.

    I drink in a pub most nights I wouldnt dream of drinking at home.....

    That must cost a fortune! My budget is normally a single bottle of real ale per night max which costs 1.50-1.80

    If I had a local micropub I would probably visit occasionally but it would be for the quality of the beer and certainly NOT for darts, pool, live tv or quizzes!
