Price of a pint

Ive just come back from 4 days golf in Le Touquet in France.... We stayed at the Westminster Hotel and they wanted 10 Euro a pint!!! :confused: Complete joke... we actually boycotted the place and went down town to a local bar where it was half that. 16 of us in there over 3 nights would have given them some decent revenue but they missed out and its funny how people become so v short sighted... I tetest being ripped off its not about the money so much but the principle..... any way at least the golf courses were good !!! :)

This place used to have a great rep for quality food in my area ( Im about 5 miles away) not been there for a bit but might give it a go. ;) Most of the decent jockeys used to go here and also to the Pheasant? Jockeys are real piss heads but tend to drink wine and spirits not beer!!.....:p My missus runs a ladies group on line and they go and wine dine and moan about blokes and their golf to a lot of places locally... Ill give her the heads up....:thup: Im pretty sure I know the previous owner and he alcoholic who now drinks in my local !!! :) which is 3.30 a pint for lager.

Pretty much the same at any de vere place. My playing partners left Belton Woods because they were fed up with paying over £20 for 2 drinks and 2 rounds of sandwiches

Cool, let me know if you are going mike, you can find us on twitter too @theharelambourn
 
J D Wetherspoons in Ipswich, Suffolk serve pints of Lager and Bitter for £1.55 on Mondays.

With many of their meals you get a free drink, (not just Mondays). Earlier this month my wife and me had a pannini (with chips) each, a pint of bitter and a glass of Red Wine for a total cost of £8.50.

Don't know how they do it.

Also their staff are friendly and efficient.
 
We're off to Le Touquet in April and as beer is an integral part of a golf break and I was a bit concerned when I saw 10 Euros for a pint ! What is the typical price of a pint ? Could be an expensive 4 days !!!

Price of a pint of beer at my rackets club(not a member at a golf club) is £3.30 and in the pubs in our village, it is about £3.70.
 
think it was around £6.50 at my old course, luxurious surroundings though and impeccable service......you get what you pay for....sometimes:rolleyes:
 
The Grove is the most expensive golf club I know. Gleneagles and Loch Lomond are not far behind. I think I bought two pints of orange and lemonade and a pint of bitter at the Grove and it was £27. Quite silly really.
