  • When I was a lad, etc. The Royal Oak in Vauxhall was THE BEST Guinness in London. In the days when pubs shut between 3 and 5.30 they'd do the loads of pints half filled on the bar thing, all ready for the old Irish fellas coming in off the building sites. I think my long gone mate, Barry, told us about that place, his dad who was an old provo used to drink in there.

    Fantastic pint, I seem to recall it was a bit gentrified the last time I was up that way.

  • I’ve got a route planned for a pubs of Shane MacGowan memorial ride once my snapped Achilles is fully mended and I’m back on the bike, the route could probably double up as a worst pints of Guinness in London ride .

    Lá Fhéile Pádraig sona duit!

  • We went to The Devonshire last Friday to see what the fuss was about, the Guinness really was very good. It was a nice but pricey £6.90 a pint.

  • Is that the one in Denham Street?

  • Yep, opposite Brasserie Zedel

  • £8.95 at the new arena in Manchester

  • What's a dbl pint? Is that like; one for now, one for later?

  • Probably a two pint 'glass', to save you queuing at the bar again (or to encourage you to drink more, who knows)

    (I didn't object years ago when I discovered that the Brixton Academy served such things)

  • Because as we all know, Guinness tastes better as it approaches room temperature.

  • Standard Co-Op prices.

  • Shannon airport tat = useful forum information

  • £3.70 a pint in the Beehive in Newcastle. Independent pub in the Bigg Market that is rammed from 10am until 11pm on any given day.

  • £3.65 in the Lewisham Tavern, you never need to go to Newcastle again

  • £6.85 at the Constitution in Camden which has been fully gentrified.

  • this is wild and needs much more media coverage than the cancelled gigs.

  • I paid £7.05 at the Woolpack in Bermondsey recently. Admittedly not a bad pint but that's absolutely outrageous.

  • Bloody hell, all those prices are a piss take

  • Just seen on twitter

  • strewth ^

  • I'd want at least 5 Carlsbergs for that price.

  • yeah, the carlsberg's the real crime on that bill

  • I’d want paying £15 to drink one

  • “Really appreciate your business”

    Aye, I’ll bet.

  • 1 Carlsberg is dreadful. The 5th has a certain charm though.

  • Is that an airport?
