Yesterday, The Sun revealed the cost of a pint at this year's festival, which kicked off on Wednesday and is set to welcome over 200,000 fans, is between £6.95 and £7.20 - up a maximum of 40p since last year.
A festivalgoer from Manchester, known as robbie.reviews on social media, posted a video to TikTok reviewing some French toast he'd bought for breakfast at the festival.
The "classic French toast" with maple syrup costs £6, but with just three half slices of toast included, one user pointed out that the stall is charging £2 for half a slice of toast.
"£2 for half a slice of toast, festivals are wild," they wrote.
Another said: " That's Glastonbury for ya....", while another user argued that "anything under £10 is ok" at the festival.
Elsewhere, food trucks have been spotted selling "loaded fries" for £14, toasted sandwiches for £10, and Mac and Cheese for up to £16.
Another reveller, known as BoSFinesse, posted a video to TikTok of a burger he got at Glastonbury this week - with some of his followers pointing out the "eye-watering" price of £15.
"Burgers are coming in at anywhere between 10 to 15 quid a pop, which is pretty much the average price of a meal anywhere at the festival" he said in the video, adding: "So be prepared to remortgage your house for this one."
One follower replied: "15 f***ing quid...", while another said the prices at the festival were "ridiculous".
"I'm sure I had one of these at an event a few weeks ago, the price was indeed eye watering but it was absolutely bloody delish!," another follower wrote.
One follower fumed: "Why is it 15 quid... rent cannot be much... just ripping people off."

However, Glastonbury has also been offering a £6 meal deal option since 2015, which is available at more than 250 stalls at the festival.
It comes as prices at the festival's on-site bars caused a stir among fans earlier in the week, with some dubbing the costs "absolutely disgusting".
A double shot of spirit with a mixer will set you back an astonishing £13, while pints of draught beer and cider cost between £6.95 and £7.20.
Glastonbury bar prices
Here's the breakdown of prices at Glastonbury:
Burrow Hill Cider - £6.50
Brothers Festival Cider - £6.95
Brooklyn Pilsner - £6.95
Stonewall Inn IPA - £7.20
Spirits&Mixers (double) - £12.90
Spirit&Red Bull (double) - £13.90
Wine (175ml) - £7.95
Soft drinks - £3
Red Bull - £5
Burrow Hill is best value pint on the menu this year, coming to £1.91 per unit.
Festivalgoers have also pointed out the huge premium being slapped on wine at the event, with organisers charging £32 for a bottle of wine that can be bought for less than than £10 from some retailers.
As photos of the on-site bar menu emerged on social media earlier this week, one fan commented on X: " Imagine paying over £300 for Glastonbury tickets to be told it's a further £32 for an £8 bottle of wine. 🤪 don't give festivals your coin it's a proper scam."
Some came to the defence of the festival bars, saying that the prices are "not bad".
One fan wrote: "That's not bad considering it's a festival."
Another person said: "Still cheaper than some pubs I've been to."
The Sun has contacted Glastonbury for comment.
Stars will take to the stage at the iconic festival from today, June 27, to June 29, with this year's headliners including The 1975, Neil Young and Olivia Rodrigo.

A spokesperson for the couple confirmed that both the duchess and baby Cosima are doing well, and the family is looking forward to spending time together. Hugh Grosvenor, a billionaire aristocrat and one of the UK's largest landowners, inherited his title and control of the Grosvenor Estate at the age of 25 following his father's death in 2016. He is a close friend of both the Prince of Wales and the Duke of Sussex, and serves as godfather to Prince George and reportedly to Prince Archie. His property company, Grosvenor Group, owns significant land in Mayfair and Belgravia, and he previously donated £12.5 million to the UK's Covid-19 relief effort.

Love Island SPOILER: Toni Laites clears the air with Megan Moore as she blames the boys for an apparent divide between the girls
Toni Laites pulls Megan Moore to clear the air as she blames the boys in the villa for the apparent divide between the girls. The US-native, 24, pulled her fellow islander, 25, to the fire as she confess that the believed the root of all their problems were the boys. As they sit down in the iconic villa, Toni tells her: 'What I think is the root of the divide, is really the boys.' To which Meg says: 'It's so stupid for us to argue over these little things.' Toni adds: 'I know that we're all friends at the end of the day', that prompts Meg to say: 'I'm not going to hold any grudges against what you guys said. You know I love you.' The pair then decide to gather all of the girls over, too. Toni says: 'At the end of the day, we know we're all friends here. They're [the boys] the problem!' The girls all enjoy a group hug as they attempt to put all their previous issues a side. Love islands fans have already called out the girls for their behaviour and furthering the divide in the villa. Viewers slammed the 'nasty mean girls' as they 'alienated' single Shakira for flirting with the boys last month ITV2 viewers were left shocked by the 'b****y' girls behaviour as they chatted around the fire pit - excluding Shakira and American bombshell Toni. The girls complained: 'Shakira has spoken to every Tom Dick and Harry, I don't think I've done enough.' Megan said: 'Shakira has been grafting her f***ing arse off today'. Making another comment, Helena added: 'I think she fancies everyone doesn't she, she even fancies the plants. I should have grafted today, I should have kissed him. Shakira picked up on the 'bad vibes' and told Toni she felt 'singled out' but pointed out that there was nothing stopping the other girls grafting as well. She said: 'Getting ready then, the vibes were so off and I can't say anything as nothing has really been said but the energy, everyone's thinking like have they done enough. 'The girls don't appreciate that I'm grafting we have all been here a day like you can do it too. 'It has rubbed people up the wrong way and I've been singled out as the threat, you get in as much as you get out.' Fans rushed to X - formerly known as Twitter - to call out the girls for 'alienating' Shakira and questioned whether the other girls had ever watched the show before. They wrote: 'The twist that has made Shakira have to graft has made the other girls alienate her which is so nasty. This is LOVE island, you can all graft too! Nobody wants to work anymore!; 'What's this shade towards shakira. 'She's spiken to every tome,dick and harry'. DUHHHHH This is love island; 'Ew these blondes getting b****y about Shakira getting to know the boys, LIKE WHAT LOVE ISLAND IS FOR; Meanwhile Shakira picked up on the 'bad vibes' and told Toni she felt 'singled out' but there was nothing stopping the other girls grafting as well; pictured Shakira and Harry 'The Islanders claim to know Love Island inside out until it's day two and someone HAS to graft and they're all acting like Shakira is tryna chain herself to everyone she talks to '. And it turns out Shakira had done enough grafting and turned three of the boys heads before she eventually decided to couple up with Harry, leaving Sophie Lee single and dumped from the villa. However, viewers were quick to react to the very awkward moment that Shakira discussed her choice of boy with Maya Jama during the dramatic recoupling. Before eventually picking Harry meaning his partner Sophie was dumped, Shakira took a long time to deliberate. She then turned around and whispered to Maya: 'So the one I pick their girl then gets dumped?' As Maya told her 'yes' she then told her she really didn't know which one she liked the most as the host then asked her she had to go with who she felt the best connection to. Viewers were quick to react to the awkward moment which took place in ears shot from the waiting Islanders. They penned on X: 'Shakira thinking she's besties with Maya STOP #LoveIsland.', 'Shakira conferring with Maya like she's her friend is so funny #loveisland.', And it turns out Shakira had done enough grafting and had turned three of the boys heads before she eventually decided to couple up with Harry, leaving Sophie (pictured) single and dumped from the villa 'Shakira and Maya Jama was like watching girls in the club toilets talking about the guy she's dating #LoveIsland.', 'Sorry this secret chat between Shakira and Maya is unironically hilarious #loveisland.' 'Not Shakira doing a debrief with Maya #LoveIsland.' 'LOL maya said im not getting paid extra for this get on with shakira is sooo funny #LoveIsland.' 'Obsessed with shakira and maya little off stage chat #loveisland.' Following the arrival of first bombshell Toni, who surprised the singletons at the close of Monday's episode, semi pro footballer Shea Mannings and fitness influencer Remell Mullins became the latest arrivals after Sophie's axing. Shea, who is a Scaffolder from Bristol, revealed he has a young son, and he will be taking that 'into consideration' when coupling up. He added: 'She needs to be bubbly and we need to have that initial spark. She needs to have a nice personality - like I think I have - so that we match together.' Meanwhile, Remell is a Self Improvement Content Creator who boasts a massive 18million likes and half a million followers on TikTok. Remell shared he is looking for, 'A bubbly, confident, ambitious and fun girl. One feature that stands out to me is a nice smile, nice teeth and someone that can keep me on my toes.' When asked where he might be found in the villa in the morning, he replied: 'I might be cooking a nice high protein meal, I might be doing my skincare routine, something to level up.'

Rio Ferdinand fumes over star pundit's absence from BBC's Lionesses coverage for Euros final - despite her having 172 caps for England!
Rio Ferdinand has hit out at the BBC for omitting Fara Williams from their coverage of the UEFA Women's Euro 2025 final – despite the former England midfielder being the country's most capped player. Williams, who earned 172 caps during a glittering international career, has been a regular and respected voice on the BBC's football output in recent years. But she was nowhere to be seen in the corporation's broadcast team for Sunday's final in Basel, with host Gabby Logan joined instead by Steph Houghton, Ellen White and Nedum Onuoha. Ferdinand, who recently stepped away from his own punditry role at TNT Sports, appeared stunned by the snub. 'How's @fara_williams47 not on the @BBCSport coverage' the ex-England defender tweeted just after 4pm, under an hour before kick-off at St Jakob-Park. Williams, 41, had earlier confirmed a new chapter in her punditry career, revealing on Saturday that she will join the TNT Sports team for the new season. Quoting a video promoting the broadcaster's extensive football rights — including for the Premier League, Champions League and Women's FA Cup — she wrote on X (formerly Twitter): 'This is NOT NORMAL', before adding: 'Can't wait to be part of the @footballontnt team!' It's a high-profile move for the former Lioness, who featured at four major tournaments and scored 40 goals for her country. She retired from playing in 2019 and has since established herself as one of the most insightful and eloquent voices in the game. Ferdinand himself ended his decade-long stint with TNT Sports after May's Champions League final. The Manchester United legend signed off with a warm on-air farewell and said he would now focus on his Rio Ferdinand Presents podcast and other ventures, including his charitable foundation.
