It's frequented by Ashfield's Conservative MP Lee Anderson
A pub in Nottinghamshire is selling beer at prices that the local MP reckons could be the cheapest in the UK. The landlord of the New Cross in Sutton-in-Ashfield said he is able to keep the cost down because he owns the free house, which means he isn't tied to any particular brewery.
"People are in here enjoying themselves, it's good for the community. Carling is our main seller. Even my local Wetherspoon's I think charge around £2.80. The previous Wetherspoon's manager in 2019 was talking to me when it when it was £2.65 there and I was £2.30. There's a reasonable margin in there because I'm a free house so I've never been a greedy, greedy guy.
It's not just lager and beer that's cheaper. Wine and spirits are very reasonably priced too, with a double vodka costing £3.50. Mr Mathew said: "Because I'm a shopkeeper I get a good deal for alcohol from my local cash and carry. Every alcohol I get they are cheaper than from the brewery. There's £8 difference on a bottle of Smirnoff and I can claim VAT back.
