"The legal age to purchase alcohol is 18. Children aged 16 and 17, with the licensee's permission, may consume wine, beer or cider with a table meal in specific areas of the premises providing they're with an adult and the adult orders it. Children under 14 are not allowed in pubs ...[text shortened]... iven. Children under 5 must not be given alcohol unless for medical or religious reasons."
It is also an offence to be drunk in charge of a child under the age of seven years.
