Edna's on the green.
 
We carted down to Edna's on the green. Beautiful place under the trees. But our friend order a wine. Tiny glass. $9 ridiculous price. Every country only charges about $6. I don't why anyone would go there with reduclous prices. Even beer was $650. Oh well.

They give you a cup for water that cost nothing.

People go there because they like the spot and the live music and vibe. All of that comes with a premium on the glass of wine I guess.

Been there a couple of times and had a pleasant experience. But it’s not a regular place for us to go. The prices play part of that sentiment.

We enjoy the atmosphere. Good food and 1 expensive beer makes a nice afternoon.

It seems like a lot of people buy there wine by the bottle at Edna's, I'm guessing it a little bit better deal.

I've never been to Edna's but $9 for wine and $6.5 for beer doesn't seem expensive to me even if it is cheaper elsewhere. Was the food any good?

Labor ain’t free or cheap. Neither is a building, a lease, taxes or insurance. Not to mention all day entertainment.

we are price insensitive to 1 beer or 1 glass of wine whenever we go out. The purpose of going out is not for the price of the serving, but for the price of the enjoyment, hanging out with friends, relatives, or just listening to the music. .

Of course it's cheaper at home, but the view and the people and the entertainment are the same day after day at home. .

YMMV

Agree. Unless you're getting Happy Hour twofers, those prices are not that different than what you'd pay anywhere.

If you want $1 beer and $3 wine, buy from the liquor store and drink at home.

Not in the parking lot. I don't like beer or wine but do like to have a cocktail or two and that is why God created coolers and airline size bottles. I don't mind paying for it but they don't have it.
