In a pub or restaurant?

A few friends were in there also inspecting and so I went to the bar and asked for a glass of white wine.

"That will be £5.10p = $10.26.sir"

Told them quite politely to pour it back in the bottle,and walked out, last time I go there.Now I know everyone has to make a profit but over £5 for a glass of plonk.Now asking a question how much would you pay for a glass of white wine at your local.

Between 2.5 and 3.80 Euro in 'normal' establishments, in 'posh' places there seems no limit. What stings me are the prices for espresso and other coffees. In Portugal and most places Italy (not the tourist traps) the standard 30ml espresso at the bar is 60 eurocents, a decent price. Over here its starts at 1.90 euro. One sip and it's gone And most of the times the espresso is luke warm

Well now the average pub price for a pint of Larger type beer is around £2.30 a pint,Europe I am sure is a lot cheaper.And agree about the stupid prices for coffee in places like starbucks.

There you go making assumptions again, Frans. First you assume he wears glasses to see; and second, you assume he can read.
