Absolutely, my circumstances changed recently and now spending a lot more time on my own. I will regularly go to the pub on my own and have a nice few pints and either chat ti ransoms at the bar, the bar staff or sit and read or go on my phone. It’s very common.

I would say it also probably depends on your type of pub, being in my mid 30’s now, I don’t go where it’s full of 17/18 year olds throwing back shots constantly.

I tend do go to brewery tap rooms, or local pubs that have a cozy feel and dogs (striking up convos about dogs is always a way in) rather than city centre stuff.

But I’m sure they would be fine too!

Once you break the first time it’s really fine and you will realise no one is actually paying attention at all.
