🍺🔥 SAVE OUR PUBS 🔥🍺
Running a pub has never been about standing still — and right now, hospitality businesses everywhere are being pushed harder than ever.
Like many pubs across the country, we’re facing constant increases in costs behind the scenes.
From energy bills and supplier prices to wages and business rates, the pressure on hospitality continues to grow while the industry remains taxed at 20% VAT.
For many independent pubs, it’s no longer about making bigger profits — it’s about protecting jobs, keeping doors open, and continuing to serve the communities that rely on them.
That’s why we support the call for a fairer VAT rate for hospitality through the campaign.
Pubs like The Three Crowns are more than somewhere to grab a drink…
They’re places where friendships are built, local teams gather, charities raise money, communities come together… the list goes on!
Hospitality is a huge part of british life and deserves recognition and support to match.
We’re proud to stand alongside thousands of other hospitality businesses in backing positive change for the future of pubs and hospitality. 🥰
