I've read lately of pubs starting to launch initiatives to capitalise on the continuing high levels of working from home: in one example £10 secures a quiet table with mains supply and wi-fi, unlimited hot drinks or soft drinks, and a lunchtime sandwich or two. Could become very popular if it pays for itself by saving on home heating costs, and it might help a few pubs ride out their fierce heating bills too.
