The "How Much?" / "Having a Giraffe!" Café thread...

i imagine the large wine would be about 7 to 8 quid (it's always been a pricy drink), but a fiver for lager shandy! just lager, maybe, but half lemonade... jeeez

Shandy is always the same cost as a full pint of beer I think.
Price doesn’t surprise me as I’m in London

£8.70 per 250ml on website
£26 a bottle

That makes the shandy £4.95

Not unreasonable prices for an upmarket tourist centre pub.

Hmmmph. I'm regularly paying £11-12 a glass for wine in hotels

Been to fill-up a 5l petrol can for the lawnmower. £9!!! I felt violated.

Makes me glad I'm teetotal

I bought a bitter shandy for a mate last week, it was £2 whereas the pint of the same bitter was £3 (it's the cheapest bitter on tap, but quaffable none-the-less). A pint of Staropramen in the same pub is £5.50

Pint of lager shandy for me and large chardonnay for Mrs SD yesterday at the Ambleside Inn in (unsurprisingly) Ambleside, L.District; cost...

...£13.65

Did you have the free furniture deal included in that?

Paid £12 for a pint of Wimbledon Pale and a zero alcohol 500ml Erdinger last night. Totally unsurprised!

Well researched!

Didn't know they had a pricelist tbh.

Good job Mrs SD didn’t have Sauv' Blanc or Malbec at £10 for a large glass.

The wine thing is past risible into the "taking it" zone.
There is a lot of good wine out there for £5 a bottle in the supermarkets
Suggests that a restaurant could buy and sell for £15 and struggle by.

Then there is the 10% service charge! You can guess, I refuse to pay it. I will tip if they do a good job.

It's a good job you all weren't drinking large Malbecs in Aberdeen.

I've been to Aberdeen and Weymouth. The price of drinks confirms my favourite.
