"Corkage: This is a fee a restaurant charges a customer who brings their own bottle of wine. While it is said to be the fee for the restaurant staff opening and serving the wine, it is intended to offset the restaurant's loss of the sale of a bottle on their wine list. Most restaurants charge reasonable corkage fees, it is highly advisable to call ahead and get the exact amount. While the corkage fee should not exceed the price of an average bottle on the wine list, some restaurants can get bold with their fee. On occasion, a restaurant may waive the corkage fee if a bottle from the wine list is purchased.

"For example if the venue is offering you the option of buying a house wine at £13 per bottle or bring your own wine and pay a corkage charge of £7 then the chances are that you can go out and buy an equivalent bottle of wine for under £6 and be better off."
