I think you have to be upset at either Parish or whomever their alcohol rep is. I have a friend in the bar business, and Parish's beers are expensive. As I was typing that out though, realized Deano's is putting the 4% card fee on top also...so yea I guess you can be mad at Deano's too. If you are mad at parish then you should be mad at the credit card company. Every place I’ve had ghost is around $10, a 4-pack in the store is $13....ghost is just expensive I’ve had ghost all over this city. $7-8 is typical. Even the Wurst Biergarten is $7-8. |

What size Ghost? 16 oz pint? Looks like at Chimes it's $8.50 for 13oz and $12.50 for 20oz. www.taphunter.com/location/the-chimes-restaurant-tap-room/5487294345904128I'm going to agree with Parish beers typically being pricier than their other counterpart beers. I've stopped buying Ghost at the stores, because if I'm wanting that juicy style, Spindletap has 6 pack 12oz cans of Heavy Hands for $12.99 at the grocery store, vs. Ghost being four 12oz bottles for $10.99. Both are the exact same style of DIPA, and they're identical in taste. Even their pilsner is marked up higher than other craft pilsners. |

Other comparisons for Ghost prices at restaurants/bars "near" Lafayette. Apparently no places in Lafayette use TapHunter.
Parrain's in BR: $11 for a pint
Elsie's in BR: $9.50 for a pint
Columbia Street in Covington: $6 for a 12oz bottle
Balcony Bar in NOLA: $8 for a pint

tldr: if you're ever craving Pizza Village style pizza, then Pizzaville USA is a good substitute. Cocktails at The Cellar make me routinely choose Pizzaville USA over Pizza Village.
Continue reading if you want long-winded explanation:
I have a hard time ranking pizzas, because there's tons of different styles and moods that play into what I want. Sometimes I want a Neapolitan pizza, and order Central/Bread&Circus. Sometimes I just want a cheap delivery pizza and get Papa Johns or Dominoes.
But I will say, the style is very comparable to Pizza Village/JJ's. I guess I'd rank it a single notch below Pizza Village on that type of pizza. When I order Pizzaville USA, I usually build my own and just spell out the ingredients for a Landry Special from Pizza Village. Or a plain extra cheese pizza and douse it with hot sauce. The one thing they do that is better than Pizza Village is they put more cheese on top of the toppings, which do a better job at keeping everything in place.
