More pubs and bars in Leicester are asking customers who look under 25-years-old for ID as part of a crackdown on underage drinking.
Managers at Yates's Wine Bar in Leicester said their staff are turning away about 150 people every weekend.
Manager Diane Brown said: "We are not getting kids trying to get in anymore."
But student Luke Attwood, 19, said: "It is annoying to always be asked for your driving licence or your passport - the two forms of ID they accept."
During a recent crackdown on underage drinking by Leicestershire Police, only half of the six premises tested in the Braunstone Gate area refused to serve drinks to underage clients.
