Cheapest towns and cities to buy a pint in Britain named - see where your nearest ranks

Pub goers in Dundee pay £2.11 less for each pint they drink than those in London, new figures show.

Research from comparison site finder.com found the Scottish city has the cheapest pints of any major settlement in Britain at £3.09.

By contrast, people drinking in the English capital pay £5.19 a pint.

Overall, it's bad news for people out socialising, with the average cost of a pint across the country rising from £3.70 in 2019 to £3.94 today.

And the rises might well not have stopped there.

Georgia-Rose Johnson from finder.com said: “It is probable that pubs and bars may have to increase their prices in order to make up for the losses they have incurred by being closed over the last 3 months, causing the cost of a pint to be even more expensive next year.”

Here are the cheapest and most expensive cties to drink in:
