Man orders pint in Benidorm and is amazed when he hears the price
Graham White, also known as Benidorm Grumet, often goes to the Spanish resort and decided to put one of his fans' theories to the test - and he was left stunned at the results
Brits in search of an affordable holiday with a vibrant atmosphere are flocking to Benidorm, a resort where the nightlife sparkles and drinks flow until the sun comes up – making it an absolute magnet for stag dos.
But just how budget-friendly are the pints in this Spanish haven?
Graham White, also known as Benidorm Grumet among his almost 60K TikTok followers, couldn't believe his eyes when he discovered a pint going for less than a cuppa. At a certain spot, a humble brew costs £1.66, yet Graham found himself ordering a pint of beer for a mere 83p – a price that would have Brits doing a double-take back home, reports the Express.
The 48-year-old social media sensation took to TikTok to share his bargain-hunting adventure. In the video, Graham gives viewers a tour of the pub's ambience and introduces the staff and clientele before putting the barmaid on the spot: "How much is it for a pint of Estrella?"
"One euro, one euro for a pint," she declared, an offer too good for Graham to pass up. He then questioned the price of a brew and found out it was exactly twice the cost of a pint, at two euros.
While some of his fans were amazed, others doubted the authenticity of such a deal. "People called me a liar and said there was no place in Benidorm where you can get a one-euro pint. So I went in and got one," Graham claimed, silencing the critics by showing them it's the real deal.
Dubbed as the "cheapest bar in Benidorm," one patron couldn't hide their surprise at the bargain prices, stating it was "double [the price] for a cup of tea."
With the average pint in London costing a hefty £6.50 according to Finder.com, and the UK-wide average not far off at £5.44, holidaymakers might find themselves getting merry for a fraction of the price after touching down in sunny Benidorm.
The post quickly sparked a flurry of comments, with some wittily asking, "Why would you bother with anything else?" Another chimed in to praise Benidorm's economy, labelling it "cheap as chips" compared to numerous other tourist traps.
The response didn't stop there - someone bemoaned, "Love the price, pity I don't drink." Another recent visitor couldn't wait to share, "Went here yesterday, the food is ace as well."
Further reactions included kudos like "Bargain of the day" and another declaring, "May as well get the pints in!".

Who is Love Island 2025 contestant Tommy Bradley?
TOMMY Bradley undertook a huge body transformation over the course of a year to prepare himself for the famous villa. While love comes in all shapes and sizes, Tommy bulked up to catch the girls' eyes — here's everything we know about him. 3 3 Who is Tommy Bradley? Tommy Bradley is a landscape gardener from Hertfordshire. He is 22 years old, making him one of this year's youngest Islanders. On June 1, The Sun exclusively revealed that the 'cheeky chappy' would be a contestant on Love Island 2025. Tommy documented his prep for the ITV2 dating show on Instagram, posting streams of his gym sessions. He was helped by his brother Jamie Bradley — a boxer who used to train with two-time world heavyweight champ Anthony Joshua. In his pre-villa interview, Tommy said: "My brother Jamie is a professional boxer. He used to train with Anthony Joshua." He also revealed that his secret skill is playing the guitar, as well as knowing all the lyrics to every Oasis track. Tommy admits to being a bit fussy. On his biggest ick, he said: "When a girl is always out partying. I don't go out too much. "It's all about saving money and work. I go out during the summer but wouldn't want to date someone who parties every weekend." When asked how far he plans to go when it comes to 'doing bits' in the villa, Tommy revealed a rather awkward chat he had with his mum before flying out to Mallorca. He told The Sun and other press: 'I don't really know if I'll have sex in the villa. 'My mum has actually brought it up to me. She was like, 'Oh my God, have you thought about it — like, if you do have sex with someone in the villa I'm going to be watching.' 'She said, 'I don't know if I can watch.' So I don't really know. 'It's just one of them things, isn't it? I don't know what connection I'm going to find in there. 'But hopefully I find someone and then who knows what could happen.' A source told the Sun: 'Tommy seems to tick all the Love Island boxes as the cheeky chappy of this summer's series. 'He looks to enjoy a night out with the lads and out on the boxing scene with his brother. 'But he's also packed on serious muscle over the last year ready for telly's famous villa and is no longer just a personality hire." Love Island continues at 9pm on ITV2 and ITVX.

Orlando Bloom undergoes £10k treatment to remove microplastics and toxic chemicals from his blood
Orlando Bloom underwent a £10k treatment to remove microplastics and toxic chemicals from his blood at Clarify Clinic on Monday. The actor, 48, told his fans on Instagram he was getting the two hour procedure at the clinic in Cavendish Square, Marylebone. While he was connected to an apheresis machine with single use, sterilized, transparent tubing, he posed for a photo to promote the treatment. He wrote: 'Thanks for the help @clarifyclinics - a new way of removing microplastics and toxic chemicals from our bodies'. The treatment can effectively reduce inflammation by removing microplastics, forever chemicals, and toxins from your blood with CE marked Clari by Marker. From A-list scandals and red carpet mishaps to exclusive pictures and viral moments, subscribe to the Daily Mail's new showbiz newsletter to stay in the loop. A single session of the Clari procedure start at £9,750. Last week, Orlando teased the possibility of 'getting the band back together' for a new Pirates Of The Caribbean movie on This Morning. It's been eight years since the last Pirates of the Caribbean movie - 2017's Dead Men Tell No Tales. Orlando shot to fame as Legolas in The Lord of the Rings franchise, and quickly parlayed that into playing Will Turner in the Pirates of the Caribbean franchise. There has been talk of a sixth film ever since Dead Me Tell No Tales debuted, with a report in April claiming the next film would be a reboot, possibly without Johnny Depp as Captain Jack Sparrow. While nothing has been confirmed about a sixth film by Disney yet, producer Jerry Bruckheimer hinted last year that there were two separate Pirates movies being developed, one with Johnny and one without. While promoting his new film Deep Cover with Bryce Dallas Howard and Nick Mohammed, he was asked about the future of the franchise. 'Well, I don't know, I can't say anything at the moment because I really don't know, but there's definitely...' and when asked if it was about 'availability,' he said it was, 'nothing like that.' Orlando recently appeared on This Morning, promoting his new film Deep Cover with Bryce Dallas Howard and Nick Mohammed, where he was asked about the future of the franchise 'I think they're trying to work out what it would all look like, I personally think it'd be great to get the band back together. 'That would be great, but there are always different ideas, and so we'll see where it lands,' Orlando revealed. The franchise clearly still holds a beloved place in Orlando's heart, since he responded to his co-star Keira Knightley's recent comments about the films. She told The Times back in November that the Pirates of the Caribbean franchise was, 'making and breaking' her simultaneously. 'I was seen as s*** because of them, and yet because they did so well, I was given the opportunity to do the films that I ended up getting Oscar nominations for,' Keira said. She added that they were, 'the most successful films I'll ever be a part of, and they were the reason that I was taken down publicly. So they're a very confused place in my head.' Orlando responded in Entertainment Weekly, stating, ''It was such a huge moment in time that is almost like… it feels almost like another lifetime now.' 'I definitely understand where Keira was coming from, and she does wonderful things,' the actor said, 'I have a lot of positive takeaways.' The Pirates of the Caribbean franchise - spawned from the hit Disney theme parks ride of the same name - has grossed over $4.5 billion worldwide. It was also the first ever movie franchise to spawn two separate $1 billion films - Dead Man's Chest ($1.1 billion) and On Stranger Tides ($1.046 billion). While Johnny has disappeared from the spotlight for the past few years after his legal battles with Amber Heard, it would be interesting to see if he would in fact return as Captain Jack Sparrow for a new Pirates movie.
