£4.68 a pint 
I think it's between £3.50 and £4 in the pubs in Cannock. £4 being a pint of peroni the most expensive, but when I went down Weymouth for a week last July peroni was £5 a pint down there. |

Local rugby or football clubs £3 in town a lot more!
My first pint of courage best in a pub was 42p, and I remember the uproar when it hit a pound a pint. |

I found generally social clubs cheaper than mainstream pubs, alternatively 3 Bottles of a small selection of beers From the co-op for £5, no pub or club Can compete with that, but we need our Locals as we have lost so many in recent Times, I much prefer the ones with age and character about them, the local one I like most we nearly lost big breweries Like marstons don,t give a s**t about Such places its the profits their Interested in. |

3 bottles of Sol for a fiver in our Wetherspoons. Voted the best in the UK.
Always full of sexy people too,piling in from other towns.
Not your average Wetherspoons bar to be fair. Probably because it's in a village and not in a town centre. |

I'm not keen on drinking in wetherspoons. If I go out drinking it's usually a Friday or Saturday night, no music in wetherspoons pubs = no atmosphere.
Got to have some music in the background on a Friday or Saturday night. |

A wall of sound of people talking? Still prefer music in the pubs and bars I go in. There are 6 pubs, 1 wine bar and 1 nightclub in Cannock town centre. The wetherspoons one is by far the worst, no music and no atmosphere in there. |

I have to agree. Spoons are fine for what they are. A cheap lunch, a good breakfast when hungover and cheap beers at the start of a night out. But for a night out few places are worse! |

Yeah mate as in chatting and clinking of glasses. It's in my local village and it's open till 2am. It's heaving from tea time till about 11 o clock.There's also a wine bar,two cocktail bars,6 old school boozers,restaurants and even a daft Costa coffee that stays open late in the village. It rocks I kid you not,the first boozer is at the end of my road too |

No music is about the only attraction at a Wetherspoons. Pubs are for chatting to your pals - or the ladies, not shouting yourself hoarse. |

About £3.60 ish for a Guinness.
Paid £5.60 for a pint of Peroni in Covent Garden last week.
Paid £8.50 (!!!) for a bottle of beer in some posey nightclub on New Oxford Street.
No wonder so many places are closing- only about one third of the price goes directly to the pub after taxes. |

£1 a pint of what though?
Right now I drink Newcastle brown at around £2.50 a bottle at my local Biker pub.
You can pay £3 plus for it but it's always the same drink where ever you go in the UK. Which is why it's my usual Ale where ever I go in the UK. |
