It will be before tuesday night right so if its £7 or something crazy I can load up on spirits + cans I would expect Tuesday afternoon or evening, when someone on site snaps a photo of the signage and posts it on here.

All three places have pints that hover around £5-5.50. I had a pint in the good mixer on Saturday just gone, I can't remember being stung TBH.

Deaf Nobby Burton Posted April 8, 2022 Report Share Posted April 8, 2022 11 minutes ago, Barneym said: There are lots of pubs in London where it’s £7 a pint now, especially if you are on anything that considered craft, and I mean basic stuff like neck oil. I had a quick pint in spoons in Victoria yesterday (not my choice) and a San Mig in there was £5.35 and spoons are way cheaper than most pubs But Neck oil isn’t really that basic, I don’t think the majority of places in London are charging £7 for Carlsberg and I don’t think it will be £7 at Glastonbury.

Yeah I do agree I don’t think it will be £7 and you are probably right, wouldn’t think of touching the stuff unless I’m in a field with no option so I don’t actually know what the average price of Carlsberg would be but probably £5.50-£6 I’d guess Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ErnestWorthing Posted April 8, 2022 Report Share Posted April 8, 2022 £3.50 for a pint of 6% mild (very highly rated) here, and the locals moan about that! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Bread And Roses should be displaying the prices Monday 20th of June - its the only main bar that opens days before the Gates open - shot from 2011 ' the day before the ticket holders could enter.' The prices will be the same in all the main bars. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have been in the Tow as well before. We always go for a wonder on the Tuesday and have a in memorial drink for our former colleague and girlfriend of one of us, by the sign.

The Clearest Blue Posted April 10, 2022 Report Share Posted April 10, 2022 In 2019 I took the least alcohol I’d ever brought as I decided to just buy more pints from bars, which I enjoyed doing in the heat. But if it’s £7 a pint I’ll be reversing that approach as that just feels like it’s taking the piss. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The vibes are spot on. some year before I retire { from being a volunteer } I will wangle a place on the WBC set up crew so will get access two weeks before the gates open see photo { from 2009 } - most were staying in Portakabin's {at the back of the mess tent} and Campervans just so I can get some good shots of the whole build up. The first thing they set up is the Cherry Picker { that contains the radio equipment and wi-fi } hence how I knew that was the crew site { that was a new location that year } I have seen bars been set up before but I have never been there weeks before.

The Dawg Posted April 11, 2022 Report Share Posted April 11, 2022 We carried out a test one year on which lager was the best when warm, Krony 1664 won. We take a backpack and mix our drinking with a warm can and a every now and again a fresh cool pint. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
