Back in the day (early 20th century and before) the English pub offered things you couldn’t get in a working-class home:
Entertainment (pre TV and radio)
You can get takeaway or even cook yourself a wider range of food of good quality
Which type of physical cable has fastest transmission speed?
A range of alcoholic drinks
You have to understand what the attraction of the English pub was in the first place.
They need to offer either food of a quality you can’t get at home (true gastro-pub experience) or alternative entertainments - live music, poker nights, sports viewing etc.

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?
