Members Rudy Posted June 16, 2020 Members Share Posted June 16, 2020 I’ve been thinking, when the pubs reopen it’s gonna be rammed. So there needs to be a priority list. BarFlies the ones who sit in there from dusk until dawn. Reek a bit of damp dog and KP nuts. Heavyweight drinkers. The ones who drink every night at home and in the pubs all weekend. Weekend drinkers. Early dart on a Friday in until the soccer Sunday evening analysis is done Bottom of the list Annual drinkers, the ones who have one a year usually around Christmas usually with a lemonade top. Wankers. People who order coffee whilst some minimum wage Herbert has to work out what a skinny mocha is Food customers. Taking staff members valuable time up when it’s 8 deep at the bar. No. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
green genie Posted June 16, 2020 Share Posted June 16, 2020 Unfortunately pretty much the reverse order of profitability for the pub. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Site Supporter Spider Posted June 16, 2020 Site Supporter Share Posted June 16, 2020 From memory, the most profitable outcome in a pub is to have it rammed with people drinking pints of draft coke/Pepsi and throwing down snacks. nigh on 90% margin.

From what I can remember, a 10 litre Cola post-mix syrup (Pepsi or Coke etc) is about £50 It makes 60 litres = 105 pints at £0.48 a pint.

Whitestar Posted June 17, 2020 Share Posted June 17, 2020 My daughter works in the hospitality drinks game, reckons the mark up on beers isn't as much as you'd imagine and them blue trucks with a name that you probably always wonder how its pronounced " kuahan naglel" or something, they deliver to pubs and restaurants. Well she said they are a very expensive supplier, but a lot of places are forced to use them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MancWanderer Posted June 17, 2020 Share Posted June 17, 2020 Funnily enough I bumped into the ex-landlord of my local today I asked him about the viability of a Jollyboys outing. He reckoned no chance til the end of the year at the earliest. Strict entry criteria into pubs/bars and no chance of a big table of folk socialising. Hope he’s wrong but he’s still got contacts in the trade so I believe him We may be looking at a Xmas WWays outing unfortunately Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looking just short of £60 plus VAT for 7 litres these days on Coca Cola. Pepsi less but Syrup to soda ratio is worse. For what it’s worth I’m missing mates but not missing pubs in the slightest. Which has surprised me a bit. Edited June 18, 2020 by tomski Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
