English Pub reopens .

We hear so much negativity about pubs in Britain closing . When a pub reopens or a new one opens it is hardly ever reported on . Cheers to the Market Inn , Truro ,
( Grade 2 listed building ) Cornwall ,opened after nearly 4 years of being shut .

I hear its mostly the labour costs + rent that drive pubs under.

@Longpatrol One of the most important factors - but rarely discussed in the media - is that the younger generation drinks less, is generally more health conscious, and just as likely to socialise in a gym as in a traditional bar.

@SunshineGirl we need a big brother program in schools to get the young uns to drink.

Actually, that sounds like a bad idea...

@Longpatrol Strange times . . I'm convinced that if Farage ever becomes PM he will link patriotism with drinking pints 🍺

Dunno about the UK, but in most of Australia the most expensive bit of having a licensed venue is the liquor and/or gaming licenses.

Pubs get bought/sold just to trade those licenses.

@zonavar68 Here it is rent , rates , energy and labour costs .

@devonman Those things are all up there - I wouldn't have the resources to take on running a pub.
