Yes but the up-charge on wine is absolutely obscene and can frequently be more than what they earn on the food. Additionally, the places that can get away with this are the kind of places where arguing about what would be a relatively small charge on the bill would be so incredibly awkward that you wouldn’t dare.

So it’s extortion basically, but fancy.
so the reason i haven’t seen it is probably the alcohol tax that adds 50€/liter of pure ethanol to every beverage. it’s just not useful here.
wait.
as in, every beverage has 50£ worth of pure ethanol added to it? if so… no wonder Slavs are always depicted as drunk off their asses LOL
or is it a 50£ per litre of pure ethanol on each pallet of alcoholic beverages (eg… 2l of pure ethanol adds 100£ of tax to the pallet price)?
a 10% ABV half-litre bottle will have 2.5€ in tax added to its price for the ethanol content.
