True, but a pub is much more than a business . It is as much a community centre as a business,  the customers are an essential part of the formula. 

It is one of the P's that make a village a viable community,  Post Office, Primary School and Pub.  

Pubs rely upon customer commitment and participation for darts, dominoes teams, to collect glasses,  take a turn behind the bar.when its busy, to greet and pass time with strangers who come in.

It is way more than a shop, probably the best example of an amenity there is.
