Littler, 17, beat fellow debutante Luke Humphries 11-7 in the final and hit a nine-darter to get the crowd roaring.

However, fans in need of refreshment from all the excitement were shocked to discover a sizeable hit against their wallets.

Punters were forced to fork out at least £8.95 for a pint of beer.

Budweiser, Stella Artois, Camden Stout and Thatchers Gold cider all came out to £8.95, while Camden Pale Ale and Thatchers Fusion cider was £9.25 and Camden Hells Lager was £9.50.

Two pint "deals" proved to be no better, with each of the prices equal to buying two normal pints.

One said: "Daylight robbery!!!!!!"

Another said: "The cheek of them to put the two pints price there like they’ve got a deal on."

A fourth added: "Not even a deal on the two pinter."

A fifth said: "Sickening."

Other venues such as Cheltenham have been called out for the extortionate prices they charge fans on event days.

Inside Littler's massive rise

LUKE LITTLER has taken the darts world by storm since exploding onto the scene at the PDC World Championship.

The Nuke reached the final on his Ally Pally debut at just 16 years of age - smashing records along the way.

He has since joined Jude Bellingham on the Forbes 30 Under 30 Europe list.

And the teenage titan even had to snub an invite from the WWE.

The Sun exclusively revealed that Littler is plotting to create a fitness empire.

He is also cashing in away from the Oche thanks to an Instagram side hustle.

And he's even the face of a brand new cereal.

The wonderkid has now cemented his place among the tungsten elite by winning the Premier League Darts final - and the £275k top prize.
