      If prices dropped pubs might have a resurgence….. Also I don’t think they need one. They’re usually fairly busy most weekends

      Why doesn’t anyone want to drink €7 pints in a room that smells of piss anymore?

      The internet. Obviously.

      It’s doubtful. Even putting aside the exorbitant prices that people in general are finding it increasingly difficult to afford, especially so for younger people, the youth of today are less interested in drink than their parents are.

      While they don’t always show the same exact numbers, every statistic I’ve ever seen on the topic seems to agree on a few things. First is that the percentage of people who don’t drink alcohol at all is increasing every year, and that number seems to be higher among the younger generation, with each subsequent year of people born being less likely to drink. Second is that even those who do drink alcohol are drinking far, far less of it than their parents or grandparents were. Cost is certainly a factor but there’s also less of a desire to drink when compared to older generations.

      Even if the internet was permanently turned off the pubs wouldn’t all see a resurgence overnight. It might improve their situation but I don’t think it would do anything to overall change the course of their decline that’s been seen over the past few decades.

      Pubs are very loud and make me overuse my voice and not listen to my friends well. They are usually packed and loud even if the music is not.

      The tables are usually limited, and some people end up with shit seats, lol

      The drinks are expensive

      Dating happens a lot more online now

      The food is usually mediocre/bad

      What do you really want from pubs?

      I was just in a pub that was very busy. Before I got there, I was in another, that was also very busy. Last Wednesday and last Tuesday I found myself in two more pubs (judge me all you want), that were also quite busy. What do they need a resurgence from?
