How and where you can get a pint for just 6p to celebrate the Queen's Platinum Jubilee

People across the North East can get a pint for just 6p for one day next week - as long as they use a secret code at the bar.

Ahead of the Queen's Platinum Jubilee celebrations, Greene King local pubs are offering cheap drinks on Monday May 30. That's the same price punters would have paid on the day of the Queen's coronation in 1952.

Anyone visiting a Greene King Local Pub or a Flaming Grill site will be able to claim a pint of Greene King's IPA for just 6pm by using the secret code word '1952' at the bar.

Andrew Gallagher, Marketing Director at Greene King Local Pubs, said: "The Platinum Jubilee is a fantastic way for the UK to come together and celebrate our Queen and country, so we wanted to take our customers back to where it all began– 1952, a time when Vera Lynn ruled the charts and pints were only 6p.

"Some of our regulars may even remember watching the coronation back in 1952, although they may have been too young to enjoy a pint then. We can’t wait to see our customers enjoy this royally good deal on Monday 30th May, and look forward to celebrating the Platinum Jubilee in all our pubs across the bank holiday weekend."
