Even funnier, the bars and restaurants are *heavily* subsidised.
MPs pay well below the going rate for food and alcohol. The cost to the public is a staggering [£5.8 million a year](https://www.adamsmith.org/blog/uncategorized/the-mps-subsidised-trough).

I think it's fair enough to subsidise official events. But if they're subsidising mid week after work drinks then someone needs to write a strongly worded letter to their MP!
