There’s only so many words in the English language for “a place you can get a meal at”, you wanna go over em all?
And yes I’ve been to actual midcountry pubs, they’re bars with good dining space usually situated in a village so people can walk there. They often have playgrounds, fuckin, somehow.
They’re absolutely not. A pub primarily sells beer, salted peanuts, and if they’re feeling fancy, a bread roll with stuff in it. A restaurant sells meals with plates and cutlery and has one or two crap lagers available. A gastropub does food and beer but both are crap and are twice as expensive.
If you’re in an actual real pub, have had a handful of pints, this food is perfect, and ideally costs less than half a pint.
At the end of the day it’s a BUSINESS with a KITCHEN, a staff, and a dining area. When Americans say “it’s a restaurant” that’s what we mean.
I get the historical context. But you can’t define a pub in a business plan in any way that won’t leave me going “it’s a restaurant”. “It’s a neighborhood social gathering place for people to drink and eat and play!” Yeah I get it bro, it’s a bar.
I know bar owners on both sides of the pond, you won’t fool me. In fact, i kinda hope you try. I was just in Nottingham for two weeks in November. Mfer you don’t go to the Midcountry IN WINTER unless you’re learning something.
That seems like an argument the courts are hearing. How does the legal definition of “restaurant” require “dining space”? Ed: tou seem to have edited since my reply. I say yes, a food truck is a restaurant.
My point is, when Americans colloquially say “restaurant” they mean “any dining establishment”. We can piss and fight over semantics but what yall got are bars across from schools.
It’s the same damn thing

Why are you translating into American?
Is a hot dog stand a restaurant?
It’s a business with a kitchen, staff (1 person) and a dining area on occasion (foldable plastic chairs and tables).

Ah, Americans. I see the misunderstanding now.
