    Anyone know of prices of drink in pubs? I know some will be cheaper but just to get a idea.

    Pint of Guinness?

    Vodka and orange?

    Shots?

    Just rough prices to see how much they are for when I head out next month.

    Pint of Guinness? £3.50ish

    Vodka and orange? £4.50 (Not really sure on this one as I don't drink it, just a rough guess)

    Shots? £2.50ish

    I got two pint bottles of Magners and 3 vodkas and 3 orange juices on Saturday night in a Belfast nightclub and it cost £18.

    To get the same drinks in Mayo it would be 29.50 Euros.

    With the current exchange rate £18 would be about 20.50 Euros...so the drinks are 9 Euros cheaper in Northern Ireland.

    I was in a bar in Belfast at Christmas can't remember the name but it was beside the Spring and Airbrake.
    Four pint pitchers were £10 as far as i recall it was £2.80 for each pint separate.
    I wouldn't have thought that it was £3.50 a pint when other towns in the North are £2.50.

    No idea about Belfast prices but I was in a pub in Strabane a couple of months ago and the pints were £2.50.

    Probably Katy Daly's.

    Most pints would be around £3.20, Guinness tends to be more expensive though.

    Guinness was 3.10 in Kelly's Cellars and thats in the city centre. I don't think its much higher in other places. Niteclubs not cheap though.

    For spirits Witherspoons do a good deal, make it a double for a pound I think.

    No idea on Belfast either but in and around Enniskillian (last time I was up there) it would be between that and £3.
