Hospitality is busy. Pubs are full. But margins are collapsing.

In this upcoming episode of Talking Hospitality, Andy Lennox explains why operators across the UK are struggling to make money despite strong trade. From soaring business rates and rising utilities to the campaign for VAT reform, this conversation digs into what’s really happening behind the scenes in pubs and restaurants.

We also discuss the controversial “no Labour MPs” campaign, global press coverage, and why hospitality may need to be more robust in how it fights for survival.

If you work in hospitality — or care about the future of pubs and restaurants — this episode is one to watch.

Full episode coming soon.
