At home, 60 miles from the coast, pensioners special F&C £3.60. Whitby,
next to the fish dock, £9-ish.

Tourist areas
The rents are high
They have to factor in out of season costs and make their money while
the sun shines !
I suspect the quality is often better or more reliable away from the
tourist areas as they rely on repeat visits from local regulars.
