OMG.....£15 for 2 drinks ...i would've told the barman to shove them and found an off licence. I get fed up with paying nearly £3 for a pint of guinness  |

Hee hee hee......knew that would get the fella's going It was a very, very posh hotel though.........and it was an extra special treat......................so we then left the hotel and visited some slightly cheaper bars in the area! Must say though, Leeds is an excellent place for a good night out! Very, very friendly people! |

£160 for 1 round of drinks once, but there were about 60 people in the round and it was my wedding day! I paid for everyones first drink and a Bucks fizz Punch bowl was on the bar for helping themselves, but I would never do it again .....unless for my daughters weddings.

I get fed up with paying nearly £3 for a pint of guinness Agree with you on that one - think I would rather sit on the hotel steps with a bottle of Thunderbird in a brown paper bag than pay £15 for two drinks Bet it wasn't for two pints of real ale either - you can never get that at anywhere that charges that much for drinks. |

Actually Redimp, they had a huge selection of real ales ;D. Don't like that sort of stuff and because it was a special occassion I decided to have something slightly more exotic  |

At £15 for 2 drinks, it wasn't "special occasion" it was "once in a sodding lifetime" ;D

Wow Susie - what a rip-off! And I thought prices here in Dublin were bad, at around € 9 for two drinks. I hope the posh hotel served you in crystal goblets and offered lots of posh nibbles at that price ... cheers ... |

PML! You mean you didn't get two pairs?  ? I think there must be something wrong with me, or I haven't bought a drink for a while  but I wasn't too shocked by £15!!!!! Mind you I used to live and work in London |
