TBH, I've never had a bad pint in either of our Whetherspoons pubs.

Soft Drinks are the biggest profit pusher in bars. We charged 75p a pint for Pepsi where I worked, which is much cheaper than most places and our profit was still massive.

IIRC, it used to cost 4p in premix syrup for a pint of Pepsi when I worked behind the bar (mind you this was 18 years ago)

Last I heard was 12p a pint but that was bout 10 years ago

75p a pint is perfectly acceptable.
