Aye well, not quite as title. Any licencees out there? I know 16 and 17 year olds can drink wine beer or cider with a table meal in restaurants but does this appy to pubs as well? Is it at the landlords discretion? Hope someone can answer this for me.

I didn't know that 16/17yo's could drink in a restaurant but I would think that it is a no no from a pub, 18 is 18 at the end of the day.

EDIT, just read a site that you probably already have and it says a table meal at a licensed premises and a pub is still one of those, as long as they are with an adult and the child doesn't buy the drink.

I would print it off ready to show the landlord if he comes over after he sees you give the kids cider lol

'Table meal' applies in a pub if they have a separate dining area away from any bar. ie different room

This is why I asked, I suspect there is "small print" in the rules.

I think someone tried this when I worked at the beehive, and the landlord then said they couldn't because we were a pub that served food rather than a restaurant with a bar.

We weren't allowed to serve anyone under-18, unless they had a responsible adult with them, even if they only wanted to buy food and non alcoholic drinks.

Oh she'll not be trying to get served on her own, we are out for a special family meal while away at the weekend but will be out for bar meals too.

To be fair, looking for loopholes in the law so as young kids can obtain alcohol is a bit odd in my book, just because the French do it.

Akin to those folk who allow an eleven year old daughter to leave the house with virtually no clothes on and more make up than a prostitute.

Do your children have a drink problem? If so then I don't think that publicly plying them with drink is the way forward.

Are you a parent? Tbh, I don't actually care whether you are or not. One of my kids is 21 the other is eighteen in two months. I know she has a drink at parties and she's had a drink at home on occasion. Do my children have a drink problem? Simple answer for you there you simpleton, No. The older child barely drinks at all, The younger one is sensible enough to know when enough is enough because she's been well brought up. Muppet!!

Edit to add. I'm not looking for a loophole, merely seeking clarification as to what the legal situation is. If she can legally have a drink then she will be offered, If it's not legal, then she won't.

I wasn't actually replying to yourself, I was speaking out in general.

Bit out of order with the insults.

And no I am not saying that your daughters go out looking like prostitutes either.

The fact that you thought it was aimed at you is a matter for your own conscience.

If she's 18 in two months, as long as she doesn't look very young, there shouldn't be any problem, if you go in a pub and ask what their policy is then it'll just highlight that she's under 18.

First sentence implies I am looking for loopholes, I'm not, Im seeking clarification on the legalities, perhaps from any licencees who may post on here.
Sentence two is bizarre, however, I agree with the sentiment.
Sentence three must be directed at me as I opened the topic.
Insults? Hmm, I could have been more insulting, dry your eyes man!

After re-reading the original post it does read a little seedy - it was the mentioning of 16 I think :)

Not a question I'd be asking. If she was my lassie and she's no 18 she'd not be drinking in a pub with me! Bloody liberals!
