First pub, two drinks, £10.70. Ouch, we thought. But that must just be what it costs round there nowadays.
Second pub, literally round the corner. Same two drinks came to £6 something.
I'm trying to be normal today and do my actual job instead of falling into a hyperfixated rabbithole of how pubs work and how they can possibly be so different despite being in essentially the same location and about the same size. But I can't get it out of my mind!
Both of them had dogs in, so it can't be that. The more expensive one was much more brightly lit, so maybe pub-grade lightbulbs are very expensive? 🤔
Any subject-matter experts hanging about who can put me out of my misery?
