Welcome to the pub of 2035. This truly immersive report shows what the pub could look like in 10 years’ time.
A cornerstone of British society, the pub of 2035 will continue to be a community hub but its evolution means the use of technology is likely to be higher, helping operators become more efficient, resulting in a smarter experience than ever before.
We heard from a number of industry voices to get their predictions on the pub will look like in a decade and how operators will need to adapt in terms of trends and consumer behaviour.
From the use of AI, the importance of health-conscious pubgoers and the evolution of social media, we’ve got all this and more about the next generation of the pub.
This report also includes imagery, illustrating exactly how the pub could look, based on these predictions, using AI to showcase the changes that could happen between now and 2035.
Despite these innovations, it’s clear the pub of 2035 remains at the heart of communities with technology enhancing rather than replacing human connection, becoming a place where tradition and progress pair perfectly.
While this report focuses on the future, we’ve also taken a look back to the pub of 2015 when the average pint price was £3.14, the smoking ban was still a subject of contention and the pubs code was nearing implementation.
Furthermore, we’ve also covered the latest adaptations of pubs currently, looking at how operators have flexed specifically in recent months to ongoing changing consumer preferences.
Looking ahead, the pub of 2035 is likely to be a blend of heritage and innovation, continuing to put experience at its core with the next decade expected to be an opportunity to embrace change.
