There's a Wetherspoons selling beer at £2/pint? Postcode please!

Their beers start at just under £2, and I think all were under £3.

When and where?

My local Spoons in suburban south London often has at least some
sub-GBP3 pints - I've seen a beer at near enough half the price the
nearby "nice" pub was charging for it - and I saw a sub-GBP2 one
recently (probably in Croydon or South Norwood).


I had a look at the new St Pancras one the other day. GBP4...

Yes, their prices are very location-dependent, but usually much lower than
the local competition.

Their USP is cheap beer and food.

Along with no loud music and a choice of real ales. I like them, as do
many others.

Yes, they can be slow to clear away empty glasses, dirty plates, etc.

For different beers, of course. It is of course outrageous that
different products have different prices.
