Madonna and Guy Ritchie have been accused of price fixing at their London pub.
The couple bought 18th century pub The Punchbowl in London's Mayfair six months ago, but it is claimed staff at the venue operate a two-tier pricing system, with tourists being charged more for drinks than locals.
Pub visitor Brian Richardson said: "On Monday I paid £3.50 for a pint, now all of a sudden it's £3.90. I was shocked. I complained to staff. They have got two prices - regulars' prices and non-regulars' prices.
"I don't mind paying more but it is completely arbitrary. It is not the money, it is the price hike. It is outrageous."
His friend Andy Kneller added: "When Brian realised how much he was paying he disputed it. We know the governor.
"He did say we have prices for regulars and prices for people who don't come here very often. He dropped himself in it."
There is also no price list on display at the pub, which is a legal requirement.

Now! Now! Rihanna just remember. Madge will sing you "Vogue" while she illegally charges you more per pint.

Like money grubbing, fake accenting trash like Madonna would be above stiffing her fellow humans in any way?
