Would you queue for McDonalds?

[Milzy]

Not even if it was free.

Sitting in a sunny quiet pub garden overlooking the Thames, probably a tenner!

As long as nobody had a tracksuit or baseball cap on I'd call that money well spent.

You're going to the wrong pubs.

Certainly you are if only paying a fiver in a pub in London

I don't want a "safe" pint in the pub .... i want a pint in the pub ... who are these people that lead "safe" lives .... i've never met one ...

I think bottled beer will be the 'safe' bet for the first week so that you don't get palmed off with the slop that has been sitting in a barrel or the lines for the past few months.

The real ale barrels would of gone off weeks ago and been put down the drains.
Maybe some Lagers might of kept a bit better, but would be coming up to their limit now.

In my youth I worked behind a bar and would regularly clean the lines and circulate the stock of barrels in the cellar to ensure nothing went out of date or tasted bad but, I have been in many pubs who don't give a toss, especially those more likely to have mainly passing trade than regulars.

Obviously I can't speak for all but locals here have been collecting in their own pots scince the lockdown began so unlikely any went off round here.

For a pint of beer?!!

 

[keithmac]

Or paying a fiver a pint and sitting in a noisy overcrowded pub garden listening to load of yobs swearing when you could sit in your garden at home drinking a very pleasant glass of Hobgoblin which cost £1.25 from Aldi.

I'm not really a Pub or "people person" anymore, garden every time for me!.

BBQ on the go is an added bonus..

 

[Gunk]

For a pint of beer?!!

Right now, yes, I would pay a tenner to go back to normality and have a pint by the river. I’d probably pay £20 for the privilege. I really miss it, especially when the weather is this good.

I'm more of a brown paper bag while staggering up the street person,

 

[Jenkins]

Just one would be sufficient, but I'd quite happily pay a tenner to repeat this at the moment

 

[Accy cyclist]

Are you sure they're open?! I went for a walk around town tonight and didn't spot any brown McDonalds bags with the contents spewed out. Maybe the Accrington one is still observing lockdown.

You'd pay a tenner for a glass with Michael Barrymore's face on it?
