    Has everywhere put their prices up? Some of the prices I’ve seen are unreal. The refinery at St. Andrews Square is about £6 a pint and £15 or something for what could only be described as a kids portion of fish and chips. Then they add on a 12.5% service charge after heavily encouraging you to use the app to avoid contact/maintain social distancing. On the app there’s no way of removing the charge.

    A few other places that didnt used to be so expensive (Pear Tree being one) are apparently well over £5 a pint and over £6 for a decent few of their offerings.

    Never knew that. Not somewhere I ever go but the person that told me suggested it was a big increase. Might just be the shock of spending £5+ a pint after not doing it for ages

    My mate was in Pearce's, seemingly £5.70 a pint for whatever he was drinking! 🙁
