While the Blues deliver first-class football, your wallet feels the pain well before kickoff.
Going to a Premier League game isn’t just about watching 90 minutes of football. For many fans, it’s also about grabbing a pint before kickoff or at halftime. But depending on where you’re watching, the price of that pint can vary a lot, from wallet-friendly to shockingly steep. Here’s a full breakdown of what a beer will cost you at every top-flight ground this season, starting with the most expensive and working down to the cheapest.
20. Arsenal – £6.35
It’s no shock that London leads the pack, and Arsenal tops it all. At the Emirates Stadium, fans hand over a hefty £6.35 for a pint, perfectly matching the capital’s sky-high reputation.
19. Fulham – £5.80
Along the Thames at Craven Cottage, Fulham supporters pay £5.80 for their matchday beer. It’s one of the most charming grounds in England, but that view comes with a premium pint price.
18. Chelsea – £5.70
Chelsea fans at Stamford Bridge pay £5.70 for a pint. While the Blues deliver first-class football, your wallet feels the pain well before kickoff.
17. Brentford – £5.25
At the Gtech Community Stadium, Brentford charges £5.25 for a pint. Bees fans might relish the buzzing atmosphere, but the price of a beer can still sting.
16. Aston Villa – £5.20
Over in Birmingham, Villa Park makes fans pay £5.20 a pint. It’s not a price that’s helped heal frustrations after earlier rows over rising ticket costs.
15. Nottingham Forest – £5.20
Forest fans at the City Ground also pay £5.20 for their pints. The stadium may ooze old-school charm, but beer prices are thoroughly modern Premier League.
14. Tottenham – £5.10
Given Tottenham’s flashy new stadium and record-long bar, it’s almost a surprise Spurs only charge £5.10 for a pint. Still high, but modest by London standards.
13. Everton – £5.00
At the brand-new Hill Dickinson Stadium, Everton fans pay £5.00. For a club proud of its “People’s Club” identity, it’s noticeably more than what their red neighbors pay.
12. Wolves – £5.00
Wolves fans at Molineux also see £5.00 pints on the price board. It’s in line with many mid-table clubs, though far from the cheapest in England.
11. Leeds United – £5.00
At Elland Road, Leeds supporters pay the same, £5.00. While the atmosphere is electric, the beer certainly doesn’t come cheap.
10. Crystal Palace – £5.00
Down in South London, Palace fans at Selhurst Park are also charged £5.00 for their pints. It’s part of the consistent, but costly, capital trend.
9. Brighton – £4.95
The Amex Stadium in Brighton sets pint prices just under the £5 mark at £4.95. With European nights on the horizon, many fans still see it as a fair deal.
8. Newcastle – £4.90
Up north at St James’ Park, a pint costs £4.90. It’s not the lowest, but with the city’s party reputation, fans seem happy to pay for the buzz.
7. Manchester City – £4.60
The Etihad charges £4.60, noticeably under London prices. Considering City’s enormous wealth, many fans still see it as relatively decent value.
6. Bournemouth – £4.25
On the south coast, Cherries fans at the Vitality Stadium pay £4.25 a pint. It’s a cozy, close-knit ground where your matchday tab won’t spiral out of control.
5. Sunderland – £4.10
At the Stadium of Light, pints come in at £4.10. It’s one of the better bargains in the league, honoring the club’s loyal, blue-collar following.
4. West Ham – £3.90
After fans complained last season, West Ham cut prices, and now a pint at the London Stadium goes for £3.90. For East London, that’s almost a steal.
3. Liverpool – £3.30
At Anfield, you’ll pay just £3.30 for a pint. The price has held firm even as Liverpool lifted yet another title, offering a rare bit of financial consistency.
2. Burnley – £3.20
Newly promoted Burnley stuck with Championship pricing, keeping pints at a welcoming £3.20. It makes Turf Moor one of the most wallet-friendly days out.
1. Manchester United – £3.00
Finally, Old Trafford takes the prize with the cheapest pint in the league at just £3.00. Even amid ownership criticism and a stadium in need of TLC, at least fans can toast affordably.
