Why are fewer English people going to their local pubs for a drink? Are they aware that many pubs are shutting down due to lack of customers?

A range of alcoholic drinks

The pubs with the best chance of survival long-term recognize that they can’t just get away with the same 3 beers, ropey wine and pub-grub. Why pay more for something worse than you can get at home for less?

Comfortable seating in a warm, cozy environment, or a nice pub garden

You have 1001 sources of entertainment on TV and the Internet

You can get a wider range of quality drinks at lower prices from a supermarket

In the mid to late 20th century they added food, without the inconvenience of cooking it or washing up.
