Pint at Wetherspoon is nearly £7 in some pubs

Pint at Wetherspoon is nearly £7 in some pubs

The price of a pint at some Wetherspoon is nearly an eye-watering £7.

When we're after an alcoholic beverage or a bite to eat, many of us will head down to the local Wetherspoon for bargain prices.

The restaurant chain is commonly known for its cheap grub and pints as low as 99p.

But with the current economic climate, everything is rising in price as soaring inflation rises up to 11 percent.

As a result, everything from our energy bills, food shopping - and yes - the cost of a pint, has gone up.

And research from The Sun shows that some punters are now paying nearly £7 a pint at some of Wetherspoon pubs.

Yes, this isn't all Spoons pubs, as the price of the pint in the chain are very much dependent on location.

As we see with the majority of pubs (chain or independent), they will charge more for a pint in big cities such as Manchester, Birmingham, and more prominently, London.

If you were to head to Wetherspoon's Moon Under the Water in Leicester Square, a pint of the Belgian abbey style beer Leffe Blonde will set you back a staggering £6.85.

Many Spoons pubs outside of the city will charge just over £4 for the drink.

Moon Under the Water also charges an eye-watering £6.55 for a pint of San Miguel, Corona and BrewDog Punk IPA. Ouch.

A pint of Carling will set you back a slight cheaper £5.89, while Kopparberg Strawberry and Lime Cider will cost drinkers £6.25.

And as you'd probably expect, other central London locations are boasting similar prices that are draining punters' wallets.

A pint of the afore-mentioned Leffe Blonde will cost a slightly less £6.15 at the chain's Victoria Station and at Penderal's Oak in High Holborn.

But if you head to Spoons at Gatwick Airport and Heathrow Airport, you'll notice the price of a Leffe Blonde is back at the £6.85 mark. But perhaps that is just about acceptable for airport prices, eh?

Typically, the higher pint prices are coming in big cities and airports.

Meanwhile, favourites such as Guinness, Stella Artois, San Miguel and Carling will also set you back over £6.

However, The Sun did find out that there are still bargains to be had at Wetherspoon, including the Leffe Blonde at just £4.03 at The Resolution in Middlesbrough and the Sir John Stirling Maxwell in Glasgow.

Also, a pint of Carling can be bought for the lovely price of just £2.68 at The Resolution.

Wetherspoon spokesman Eddie Gershon told LADbible: “Our aim is to offer competitive prices in which we trade.

“Prices are higher in Leicester Square and airports as rent and rates are much higher.

“For example, rent and rates are more than £1 million per annum in our Leicester Square pub even though it is approximately half the size of the average Wetherspoon.

“In general, prices are lower in small towns and suburbs than in major city centres or airports.”
