The Plight of the Pub

Support Your Local Pub

Things are tough in the hospitality industry and nowhere is this more keenly felt than by the pubs in the UK

The UK hospitality sector is under immense pressure. Rising taxes, wage increases, and high energy costs have left thousands of small business owners facing closure.
In 2025, an average of one pub closed every day, hitting rural communities the hardest.

Traveljunkies is stepping in to help.
For 20 years, we’ve offered free advertising to small travel businesses and we will continue to do this.
But in 2026, we will focus our energy on hospitality and top of the list are the UK pubs.

How you can help:
Next time you visit your local, tell the publican to claim their free 24/7 online listing at Traveljunkies
It costs them nothing and the visibility could save their business.

Will you do this?
Not for me but for the thousands of small pub owners who worry daily about their future. Please spread the word and help protect the heart of our villages.
Thank you.
