What makes pubs so great? For starters, it's impressive that they've been around for almost 2,000 years. The purpose behind a British pub was not to such grab a drink and order some food; it's main focus has always been the human connections. Interestingly, the Romans first brought pubs to life to the British Isles, back in 43 AD.
At the time, pubs were called tabernae. Although wine was sold at these tabarnae, one had to keep in mind that the Brits loved their ale and beer. At the time, drinking water wasn't so safe, so they opted for these two staple drinks. Bearing this in mind, the tabaranae brought along a wave of change as they opted to provide the Brits with their favourite poison.
