marcwilson87 Posted June 23, 2019 Report Share Posted June 23, 2019 I reckon you have to budget a fiver a pint. Would be disappointed if it goes over that, mind I've not been to the past few years so maybe they are already that high Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rubber Soldier Posted June 23, 2019 Report Share Posted June 23, 2019 It’s not going to be much more or less than five quid a drink, so I’d work off that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dentalplan Posted June 23, 2019 Report Share Posted June 23, 2019 Think I read on here that ‘London prices’ is the guideline. So yeah about £5 minimum. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FLB Posted June 23, 2019 Report Share Posted June 23, 2019 In 2017 it was: Lager: £4:60/pint Cider: £4:80/pint Real Ale: £4:60/pint Spirits: £4:60/single and £8:00/double (take your own!) Wine: £5:00/187.5ml glass (take your own or visit an actual wine bar, think it's slightly cheaper at those) Cider is changing from Thatchers to Mallets so we could see these prices go up a bit after the break. There are some bars that very the prices, e.g. cider bus was £4/pint last time. Not sure on soft drinks.

barkley87 Posted June 23, 2019 Report Share Posted June 23, 2019 Any idea how much this new local cider will be? Still around the £5 mark I'm guessing..? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sasperella Posted June 23, 2019 Report Share Posted June 23, 2019 Another crucially important question - will there be stainless steel pint glasses again? I lost mine when I moved house and although my friends have a few, they don't trust me not to lose them! (Which is probably a legit concern) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spindles Posted June 23, 2019 Report Share Posted June 23, 2019 Nice round fiver sounds good, would speed up time at the bars. Guessing we won't be that lucky though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sirjonnyp Posted June 23, 2019 Report Share Posted June 23, 2019 Also worth remembering that there can be significant differences in the prices between bars. Normally we only take our own booze, but in 2016 our driver got ill at the last moment and we were on the train, severely limiting how much we would take compared to usual. We thus started a pub crawl on the Wednesday afternoon and were surprised to find out that the bars have different prices. The Bimble Inn had £4 pints, whereas (I think) Avalon bar charged £5.50 for the same pint. Several places were £5, such as Bread and Roses and the others around the main stage. We ended up drinking at Bimble a lot! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ve only been to Lords and Hove (and a couple of local county grounds) and they’ve all been fine with alcohol being brought in for personal use. I’d presumed it was universal. The MCG and the WACA too, now I think about it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
