Iāll drink myself to death or die trying
You would id say. Edited that to read licences going for 30kā¦but long term low margin high volume gig competing with supermarketsā¦not easy
Minimum pricing will mean those who can deliver a good offering will do well. Prive wont be an issue
Ya itās the supermarkets that would kill you. But if you had the crafties, good wine etc in store youād make a few bob. No goldmine though thatās for sure
I heard a porter mechanic saying heās drinking in his garage with his buddy every night and is over the moon with the amount of money heās saving every week. No closing time either.
The license will extend to 4am within 3 years, chalk it. With less traffic in city centres because of WFH there will be more emphasis on street access. Regard less of bars/pubs the shakeup in town centers will be transformative anyway
I miss pubs, but I could live without them.
What kind of margin would an offy be looking at?
I donāt know what itāll be like in Brandon without being able to go for a pint. Iām not missing them as much as I thought really.
I love a pint. But itās the people youād miss really. Iām not looking to pull birds or anything either which helps I guess

A nice wine shop/wine bar with a bike park and bike service shop as part of it is the future. In the mornings an espresso bar.

Iād be the same. My pulling days are long gone (not that they were hectic at any stage) but I miss the pubs nonetheless. A nice escape every now and again. Few pints. Maybe even get hammered occasionally.

Donāt get me wrong Iād murder a proper pint. But Iād survive another while.
A few quiet pints on a mid week evening with a bit of sport youāve a passing interest in on tv can be a grand way to pass a few hours

A lot of middle age regret seeping through now in this thread. The āitās all about meā culture not exclusive to millenials too I see
Dependsā¦Youd want to be selling lot of better wine and premium beers and spirits to make it pay
I would have thought so. Very hard to compete with Lidl and Aldi on low price generic beers and wine
Any of these types who give out about pubs are generally people who donāt fit in there.
They can also be seen eating vegan pancakes or discussing global warming with fellow wimps.
