Britain's pubs are right at the heart of every community in the country. They are a much loved part of our national culture, celebrated at home and abroad, and attract many visitors to Britain. Every week, around 15 million people socialise in the nations pubs. Most are small businesses, run by tenants, lessees and owners, and together they employ over 600,000 people.

Today's pub is as much about food as drink. More than 80 per cent of pubs serve food, catering for every taste. That's over 1.1 billion meals per year.
