Have been told a single Christmas dinner /lunch in a local hotel will set you back 95 quid. How can this be justified ? Is that norm and is there dearer .Maybe I've lead to sheltered a life.

It's only justified if people are inclined to take up the deal...

They charge what people will pay, and to cover the cost of extra wages. When my son was at University and worked in a local pub/restaurant he would always want to work christmas as it was 3x normal pay, they got great tips and had a free meal after everyone had gone. The after session drinkies would often last till way midnight

How much is a normal three course meal at this hotel? Even at a pretty crappy 'family' pub it's around £40 a head on Xmas day.
