As we both felt a bit bleugh today 😟we opted to go out for lunch somewhere just for a change of scene. There's a local pub where we have eaten on a couple of occasions this year. It's clean, airy and quiet in the bar area and the last time we visited we had 2 x 2 course meals for £10 each.
When we read the lunchtime menu we debated leaving on the spot but didn't know where else to go so I chose the beer battered cod and chips. (Sorry we had nibbled all the food before I remembered to take a photo! )........
G chose a 6oz rump steak which came with chips, half a small grilled tomato and a few pea shoots 😬
He did decide to have dessert of apple and toffee tart with custard but I declined......
The bill was a shocking £29.35. Two courses used to be £10 but have rocketed by 25% to £12.50. A pint of lemon and lime cost £4.15 and a small lemonade was £2.95. I know that energy bills are going up, delivery costs too but it's far too much for us to pay now. We won't be going back. A shame because it's a lovely pub with friendly staff.....
Are you finding that your favourite eating places are putting up their prices? Are you having to cut down or cut out?
Thanks so much for popping in and please be safe wherever in the world you happen to be x
