    A let down for the bar will be it's on the wrong side of the road for the sun, not a sun trap.

    Not sure this'll work in Benidorm where most people buy in rounds, so having different prices for the same round every 5 minutes will cause confusion and possibly friction. Think it's also unfair to the staff as they're the ones that'll unfortunately be getting any flak about the prices. Hope it works for them but we'll wait and see

    Good luck to them.
    There used to be a couple of bars with the same concept in Manchester in the 1990's Beer trading company and Ganders go south.
    Sadly neither lasted very long.
    Hopefully for them this will not be the case for their bar .

    Great information. It my first time in January and we are staying at the Don Pancho hotel which you have covered. Would it be possible for you to check for us regarding the car park upgrading in front of the Don Pancho. Is It noisy for the hotel residents etcetera? Keep up the interesting info on Benidorm.

      @mgannon5820 3 часа назад

      We’ve had a message from Jet2 stating the car park, a private apartments car park , in front of the Don Pancho is being worked on and it is taking longer than necessary. Once again your information on Benidorm is so valuable to especially for someone who has never been. Happy Christmas and a healthy sunny new year.

    • @LucyYoungTBE
      @LucyYoungTBE 3 часа назад

      @mgannon5820 Ahh they must mean the new apartment building over the road that's been going up for years. I guess they are now onto the car park with it. I haven't noticed any more noise than usual tbh x hope this helps

    Good idea but not completely original.
    Ive been in a bar in the 90s with the same theme (might have been Cardiff or Swindon?) called Wall Street I think . It did the same , tv’s every where with hooters and flashing lights every 15 mins as the price of a specific drink went up and down on the screen till it stuck 👍🏽

    Been done for years.Not sure Benidorm is the right place for it as beer is so cheap there.Key will be if they can create a great atmosphere away from the gimiky price concept.Also if the beer is good quality, many of the cheaper places in Benidorm the beer is undrinkable.I wish them well and will certainly give it a go.

    It’s okay when your beer goes down but no one is going to be happy when their favourite pint goes up they will leave and go somewhere else .. some right brits out there 😂😂 we moan when beer goes up once a year in the local 😂

    • @Martin-pr2sm
      @Martin-pr2sm 2 дня назад +1

      Maybe the pricing will react to the sort of customers and their intentions eg if a bunch of hens look like they're going to leave cocktails will go down for half an hour, but pints go up.

    Sounds complicated to me. Personally, I'd rather have fixed prices, dynamic pricing for a pint isn't for me. Suspect this bar won't be here next Christmas.

      ​@michaelcarey8491 yeah there's a bit of a boom of bars in London doing similar now too but just themes nights not basing the whole bar around the concept. I really like the idea but I'm a bit of a gambler too 👍

      @@LucyYoungTBEThe broadcasting of non-major sports such as F1 might help to entice customers in what's been described as a slightly out of the way venue. Their tastes will doubtless be evaluated as time goes on so this pub may well be successful. Personally, I'm not sure about the dynamic pricing idea. It might work for a few hours at peak times, but I'm not sure how it can operate well on a day long basis. But we'll see.

    @londonEnglishVideos День назад +1

    If they concentrate more on the "entertainment and good product" side, and less on the cheap/cheap/cheap side, they may hit on something. I'm sure many will disagree, but the uncle Ped/bucket of beer cheap angle has been done to death. Different people want different things from their holiday. Good luck to them in this venture, and it should at least offer something different.

      @MarkBellew-y4r 2 дня назад

      I beg to differ.
      This type of bar is not new, on the contrary there have been quite a few bars with this pricing concept operating at a profit and being successful .
      As long as you can get the drinks at the price you want and not end up missing the opportunity due to the bar being busy and not enough bar staff. Time will tell I suppose.

    • @Martin-pr2sm
      @Martin-pr2sm 2 дня назад +1

      Yes, they will need to be careful not to annoy customers. But I wonder if they might introduce people to new drinks. I might visit this bar to watch the F1 or a couple of hours cricket, probably drinking a few pints as I do. Maybe the bar staff will then call out that cocktails are at half price. That might just tempt me to try one. So, the bar staff really going to have keep a close eye on whats going on in the pub.
