Yeah, every time I ask for a drink, I mean EVERYTIME, even when I go up as close as I can (To the point that I could kiss the taps) and shout it as loud as I can, I always get the same reply "WHAT??" I'm tired just ordering drinks in there haha..

type up a wee sign, business card size; laminate it and keep it in your wallet.


And upon showing it to him he will present a wee sign, business card size, laminated and kept in his wallet that says...."WHAT??"

However, to keep on topic.

I don't know if it's just me, but was in Bruxelles last weekend and was scanning the drink promotions blackboard thing and was near sure I saw a bottle of Desperados was fairly cheap..€4 something??

So bought it, loving it, as did the others with me that tried it.

But when I ordered my second drink I had the Asian waiter say to me "WHAT??...It's €6"

Maybe I'm stupidly mistaken?? Can anyone shed some light on this??

This was the night of the Lord Vicar gig which I couldn't attend Sad

There are so many reasons why I don't go to Bruxelles very often, this drink fiasco puts a nail in me ever going back there regularly again. The place is a joke and I'm glad people have a choice now and started to see sense.

Where are most people drinking now? I haven't been in to Bruxelles in ages, and don't really want to now.

I've heard mention of the Foggy Dew. Is that where everyone drinks now?

(And don't say Fibbers Razz )

Aye, last week prices went back up at midnight. €4 for a pint of Foster's is grand if you're on the cheap buzz until then though.

Putting the prices up at half eleven really is a taking the fucking piss. The place should be hit with a wrecking ball covered in my jizz. Fuck Bruxies.

If its €4 for a pint of that swill I'd hate to see the other prices.

As McLove says, putting the prices up at that time is a joke, and I wonder where that guy who spent all of last month promoting it is now to explain it.

That's a girl doing the promotion for the bar. Not that it's particularly relevant, but just so you know....
