Claim it is a B&B, where the guests all kip on folding beds in the same large room, like a down-market youth hostel if you like, then charge the regulars say a pound for the night so they can then drink as hotel guests (and not of course bother staying the night, unless they end up literally too legless to drive home).
There as your B&B wouldn't be."You’re just a bad memory who doesn’t know when to go away" JRComment

Listening to a guy running a pub based in Barnet on the radio. His business rates are going up from £9,000 to £23,000. He's suppose to get £1700 of trade a week on 900sq ft according to the fair maintainable trade calculation it is based on. He is now closing down his pub and making his 3 employees redundant.
Oh and lots of corner shops are going to close."You’re just a bad memory who doesn’t know when to go away" JRComment

Regarding beer prices for pubs ... I have a friend who runs a small pub company with about 25 pubs in it.
This is what he told me when I asked about the prices ( for another friend)
£75 ex vat free trade for 72 pints of cask beer
£83 ex vat free trade for 88 pints of Carling/fosters
Eg doom bar average price 3.60 so about £2.30 slightly more on Carling etcComment
