Pubs giving a CAMRA discount list.

[ROBCamra]

There's been a lot of work going on behind the scenes on this link

http://www.pubsgalore.co.uk/pub-features/camra-discount/

Which is also available in the "Links to stuff that I need to put on the site" thread.

At the time of posting there are 1181 pubs on the list.

This will rise to at least 1500 as we pursue a number of leads from CAMRA branch newsletters, pub chains etc.

Most entries now have a discount amount in the details field e.g. 20p per pint, 10p per half.

If we haven't been able to find out what the discount amount is, that fact is also noted.

If you do know what the discount is, please let us know via this thread.

Only Wetherspoons that offer a discount over and above the JDW vouchers are on this list.

We all know that all Wetherspoons take their own vouchers so it's not needed.

Have another look at the link, especially if you're visiting a town that is new to you. It may well save you money. :cheers:

Please be aware that these discounts can be changed or stopped at any time at the discretion of the pub
and whilst we will endeavour to keep this list up to date, we cannot be held responsible for any changes, omissions or errors.

[Dave M]

Thanks for all your work on this! You've helped make this a really useful list.

To try and help promote it a bit more I've now added a link directly to it from all pages of the site (at the top of the page under 'other bits')

[Quinno]

good stuff guys!

[rpadam]

I saw a notice in the re-opened Woodman (http://www.pubsgalore.co.uk/pubs/37969/) saying that they will accept Camra's Wetherspoon vouchers to give you 50p off a pint.

The discount here (http://www.pubsgalore.co.uk/pubs/60992/) was 10% when I reviewed it in December 2012, and still the same when I was there again a year later. I understand that the local Camra branch doesn't state what it is, but my guess would be it's still 10%!

[Aqualung]

When I visited here (http://www.pubsgalore.co.uk/pubs/10531/) last December I was told that the discount only applied to Hophead. I didn't query it and haven't been back so can't be certain I wasn't being fed a line. .

The discount has been changed on WhatPub very recently to say discount on selected ales only, so I've now gone with that.

The Wheatsheaf (http://www.pubsgalore.co.uk/pubs/38846/)

The least impressive CAMRA discount ever?

5p per pint Wednesdays 6 - 11 only.

I'd get in early so you don't get knocked down in the rush if I were you Soupy!:evilgrin:

They advertise this prominently on the front page of their website as well.

[ROBCamra]

Bump 1500.

If Aqualung had looked at this http://www.pubsgalore.co.uk/pub-features/camra-discount/

before he went to The Blythe Hill Tavern (http://www.pubsgalore.co.uk/pubs/65860/) he'd have saved himself 10%.:evilgrin:

As I was only going to two new pubs I just checked for discount shown in the details for the specific pub. I added the 10% after my visit. I haven't changed the All Inn One as it seems too far fetched that they would discount a £3.80 pint to £3.00. Considering I'm such a skinflint I don't make a very good job of checking for discounts.

Would it be possible to amend the discount comment for the Moon Under Water in Wolverhampton please? On my machine this long comment sends the pub details all over the place. I can confirm that there is no card discount as I asked last weekend.

Strange, it displays fine on mine. The reason for the description was that Whatpub still stated that there was a discount at the time.

Whatpub has now been corrected, so I'll change the description to the usual "JDW vouchers only" comment. :cheers:

Now listing CAMRA discounts at 1600 pubs!! :cheers:

Don't leave home without it. :D

[ROBCamra]

Bump. Now 1650. :cheers:

Now over 1700 pubs giving a CAMRA discount and I've now got a further 117 to confirm. :cheers:

[trainman]

West Norwood's Great North Wood (ex Norwood Hotel) offers 15% discount which, at £4 per pint, is a handy 60p off.
Shame I didn't realise until a coupla weeks ago; they didn't want to rebate me on the 20 or so pints I'd had before I saw the notice...
(no, not all in one visit!)

[PaddyMick]

Hello
Couldn't see my pub on the list. The Western Leicster. The Western (http://www.pubsgalore.co.uk/pubs/20742/)
We give 30p off our three permanent house beers (Steamin' Billy Brewing Co.).

Hi, I'd ensure that Leicester CAMRA are aware as well as they don't have the discount listed on Whatpub
and its not listed in the latest edition of Leicester Drinker either.

[PaddyMick]

Thanks Rob, i've emailed my local branch

[NickDavies]

Taylor-Walker pubs can be challenging. A Camra card doesn't mean much when your third language is English and usually requires reference to someone managerial to demonstrate the correct key sequence on the till. Stopped for a quick on in here (http://www.pubsgalore.co.uk/pubs/22861/) the other night: the lone barman eventually gave up on the till and set off to seek advice. I reckon he went to the Victoria (http://www.pubsgalore.co.uk/pubs/23057/) on the next corner and back. I'm not sure that the major Pub Annoyance (http://forums.pubsgalore.co.uk/showthread.php?949-Pub-annoyances-834) I inflicted on half-dozen or so waiting for it all be sorted out was worth the 40p or so I saved.

[ROBCamra]

Bump!

Now up to 1750 with another 70 or so still to check out. :cheers:

[Aqualung]

This (http://www.pubsgalore.co.uk/pubs/32643/) is marked as doing 10p CAMRA Discount but none of the last three GBGs mention it nor does What Pub. I was there yesterday but didn't think to even look for CAMRA discount as Spoons don't generally do it apart from some with food. Is the information out of date?

[ROBCamra]

The discount was from the Heart of Staffordshire CAMRA website here http://heartofstaffordshirecamra.org.uk/camra/pub-discounts/

It's still listed there. A lot of the local CAMRA discounts for the area aren't on Whatpub either.

[Aqualung]

I picked up the June / July Nottingham Drinker on Saturday. It has a list of all the Nottingham discounts and the three city centre Spoons are not mentioned. I visited the Lloyds and managed to ask one of the floor staff if they did CAMRA discount and I think the answer he gave was that it is just the vouchers.
When I have time I will add any new discounts but am reluctant to change ones that others have submitted so will post them here.

[ROBCamra]

Yep, you're right. It looks like they've stopped doing it. :(

I've changed them all to say no.

[Aqualung]

Do you want me to trawl through the rest of the list?

[ROBCamra]

Do you want me to trawl through the rest of the list?

I checked all the Nottingham ones late last year, probably using the November/December issue,
but there are bound to have been some changes as well as the JDWs.

So please feel free to go ahead. Nottingham Drinker usually has all the Erewash Valley ones as well on a different page.

Cheers

I got a copy of April/ May left in a Manchester Spoons the other week and they weren't mentioned in that one either.

Bet most have already been captured by Rob.

OK I'll check them over.

[Aqualung]

OK I'll check them over.

I've been through the list and added seven. What I can't do easily so won't is cross reference the existing discounts against the ND list.
What I can say for certain is that there are no Spoons listed as doing a discount. I'm going to Liverpool on Saturday and suspect that the same applies there. I'll try and remember to find out what I can!

[ROBCamra]

Bump. Now up to 1800 pubs giving a CAMRA discount.

[ROBCamra]

Bump. Now up to 1850 pubs giving a CAMRA discount. :cheers:

Just received a new card - very lightweight compared to old version. Presumably a cost saving, but rather misguided imo.

[ROBCamra]

Bump. We now have 1900 pubs giving a CAMRA discount.:cheers:

[Aqualung]

It says in London Drinker that Nicholson's are no longer doing CAMRA discount (I didn't even know that they did!). Does that affect this list?

[ROBCamra]

It says in London Drinker that Nicholson's are no longer doing CAMRA discount (I didn't even know that they did!). Does that affect this list?

It certainly will, but it's not as easy as removing all the Nicholsons pubs.

Each pub has always had some autonomy as to whether they offer a discount or not and I believe some still are doing.

The new scheme is https://www.nicholsonspubs.co.uk/offers/thehopcircle and is available to all.

I'm guessing that over time that most of their pubs will join it.

I first came across it in The Victoria Comet (http://www.pubsgalore.co.uk/pubs/70008/) in October.

I showed my CAMRA card for the usual discount and was told that they weren't giving it anymore in their pub.

As neither of us had a smartphone the barmaid applied for the discount on her own phone and then put the discount code into the till.

Top barmaid! :notworthy:

[ROBCamra]

Bump. We now have 1950 pubs giving a CAMRA discount. :cheers:

[ROBCamra]

Bump. Now 2000 pubs giving a CAMRA discount. :cheers:

Bump. After a short hiatus whilst Dave sorted the table out to show more than 2000.

Now 2050 pubs giving a CAMRA discount. :cheers:

I asked for and was given a students discount in a craft bar last week.Just as well as 2 halves cost £7.10.

Clapham Falcon is on the list but doesn't offer (or no longer offers) CAMRA discount. Should be de-listed...

I've changed it to No anyway.

Ahh, wrong Falcon. Nicholsons used to give a CAMRA discount, now they don't as they have their own scheme.:cheers:

[NickDavies]

Does anyone know if London Taylor Walker outlets still do Camra discount, especially those which have be Greene Kingified? Will be down there next week and don't want to make (even more of a) tit of myself.

I'm sure you won't be surprised to hear that I've no idea. I didn't even know that Taylor Walker were part of Spirit. Does anyone know who owns Nicholsons?

You can bet there's even less usable normal height seating. They did up a pub near me and now even most of the banquette seating is raised up. You have to be in early to nab a normal table. I wonder if they realise that they are excluding a section of the population who can't surmount without assisstance, or for balance or other reasons feel unsafe on, their stupid high furniture.

[ROBCamra]

Bump. We now have over 2100 pubs listed as giving a CAMRA Discount. :cheers:

[oldboots]

Just wondering how this feature fits with Camra’s motion 10 passed (with amendments) at their AGM last month?
As we’re not Camra not a lot I guess but who knows the future of Camra discounts.

I've not a clue what motion 10 is, any chance of an expansion OB?:confused:

[NickDavies]

MOTION 10

This Conference believes that no CAMRA member or Branch should ask for, or expect, a permanent discount from any pub or brewery, but if a business wants to offer CAMRA members a discount, this be respected but not expected.



This motion was carried

[oldboots]

I've not a clue what motion 10 is, any chance of an expansion OB?:confused:

What Nick said, and he's got the revised wording as passed too, good man.

[NickDavies]

One of those where you would have to have heard the discussion to understand the sentiment behind the resolution. I wasn't, but my guess is that it's for the benefit of those who have an unpleasantly overt sense of entitlement when it comes such things, or perhaps for rogue branches suggesting to pubs that a discount would smooth the way to a GBG entry.

But that's just me guessing, would anyone who was present in the hall on the day care to elucidate?

Yes you’re pretty close, that was the main sentiment expressed, there were other thoughts but the motion went through very easily

Now that CAMRA are starting to show pubs which accept the extended voucher scheme, as well as those which give a direct discount, have we given any thought as to how (if?) we mark them on PuG? Marking the CAMRA discount field as Yes and adding a comment is slightly clumsy but sort of works.

I wonder if some that give discounts will go for vouchers instead in the future. Any reports yet of pubs giving a discount AND taking a voucher?

Some JDW's have always given a CAMRA discount as well as taking the vouchers, although not for the same drink at the same time.

A decision was made that JDW's that just do the vouchers would be shown as not giving a discount.

The new scheme should be treated the same way as far as I can see. :cheers:

I'd say this makes sense, on the basis that if you have the vouchers you will already know what pub chains accept them.

I believe that any beer discounts other than the vouchers were removed when they had their minimum wage price increases some years ago now. I would look on any CAMRA discounts with JDW other than the vouchers suspiciously especially given the vociferous campaign against the vouchers on the boring CAMRA discourse site.

[Pangolin]

It was the non-JDW that I was thinking of. With Stonegate included it is going to be clear as mud which pubs are involved. I wonder if Yates & Slugs will be included?

I found the answer to my second query on the CAMRA website though:

CAMRA members enjoy discounts at over 4,700 pubs* nationwide via the RADS scheme, which encompasses:
Real Ale Discount Scheme Membership Card discounts (around 3,500 pubs)
CAMRA real ale, cider and perry paper vouchers (over 1470 pubs)
*some pubs may offer both discounts

I can think of two Castle Rock ones that do both. The Alex in Derby and the VAT & Fiddle in Nottingham. There's probably others. I think adding a Voucher Yes/No option for this site would be over the top.
The Derby Alex needs updating. The info on What Pub is correct.

This reminded me of a quirk. The Castle Rock Alexandra does discount but ONLY accepts the old JDW CAMRA vouchers not the new ones. The reason for this is that the new CAMRA vouchers only apply to managed Castle Rock pubs.

The excellent Seven Stars in Rugby is not listed as giving discount but does (until 17:00 Sat, don't know about midweek), and Generous Briton in Loughborough, also very good, is listed, but is not 'currently' offering discount...

Good spot. Discount of 10% every day until 17.00 with a CAMRA card as I understand it. It's reasonably priced anyway and invariably has a decent and well kept selection.
