You’re missing a few. Also, some of those have closed. Because of these discrepancies this map is literally unusable.
Road trip?
Thinking more one hell of a pub crawl.
Meh, I reckon I could have a Guinness in each one before closing time.
How many of them are called The Winchester?
I don’t know, but that’s where I would go both to wait out the apocalypse and for a date.
2, if this is to be believed
Edit, and then 3 or 4 if THIS is to believed (and those other two appear to have moved from Burnley to Liverpool, and Islington to Highgate)
Why so empty on the northern part? Non British here.
The people who lived there were forcibly relocated to the colonies because the lairds worked out that it was more profitable to use the land for sheep than peasants.
well, why don’t the sheep have pubs?
Those are called shrubs, and there are lots of them.
The sheep were tired of getting fleeced…
I think they’d say the same.
Underrated comment right here
Scotland is way less densely populated than England
I think it’s mountains?
That doesn’t normally stop us, but barely anyone lives in the highlands.
damn bro the night life really is dying. Barely any pubs nowadays.
It’ll be interesting to remove the Red Lion and see the difference
Nope, incomplete. Here’s one at the tip of that peninsula-looking island that’s left bare (Skye).
I’m curious now it there actually is a spot in the Hebrides or Highlands where you can be more than a day’s walk from a pub.
Skye is actually close enough that you can drive over there by bridge
I prefer driving by car.
How big is the bridge?
Less than a kilometre long
Yep, that’s hardly an island, haha!
Looks more like a bar. Never says pub that I saw.
Skye is beautiful though. Worth the ferry if you’re in the area.
There are several pubs in Skye, I visited a few last year.
Could you explain to my Canadian ass what the difference is? Haha. The only thing it seems to mean here is that they try to be classier and serve full entrees.
An inn is basically a pub with rooms you can stay in. Not quite sure what makes a place a bar rather than a pub in the UK, but generally a pub was built as one and a bar is in a generic retail/restaurant space.
This is missing a few, there’s more than that in the rural regions of Scotland.
Yeah, this map comes up on the Web periodically and we Scots point out that it’s lacking (a lot) in Scotland.
Bleeding English erasing Scottish pub culture smh /s
Looking at that blue line, OOP solved the traveling Irishman problem.
Great! Now do every bar in Wisconsin…
Good attempt, far from being all of them though. For example in Appleton they can’t hand out more liquor licenses because of the sheer amount of bars there.
The bars you have in mind might be encoded as pubs. Query with both: https://overpass-turbo.eu/s/2287
Anyone can edit OpenStreetMap. Basemap is used by Strava, NextDoor, many others.
I’d be interested to see the alcoholism rates over history compared to the US. That’s a lot of pubs, but I have a feeling the rates are lower there.
Found a random graph that might tell part of the story. I’ve always heard that people drink more heavily in Europe than the US.
What happened in the 80s?
The cocaine was amazing.
Maybe just more health awareness? I bet that’s when smoking started dropping off too.
I’m doing my part!
There’s seems to be a mistake: The northern portion of Éire, also known as Ireland, is erroneously included in this chart of UK pubs. Please fix this.
Did you mean Éire?
Thank you for pointing that out. I hadn’t noticed. Fixed it.
👍
Ireland is not a lake. Please fix this
What’s the deal with the hole in the cloud of pins near the England / Scotland border?
it’s actually one Big Super Pub that fills up the whole of Northumberland
Looks like it might be the North Pennines, which is basically a national park
North Scotland must be where people go to sober up.
I recently visited one in Belfast.
