In pre-pandemic times I worked from home and to get out a bit during a day I would have a coffee and work from the local pub.
Depending on the time of day I showed up there would always be the regular pensioners starting their first drink of the day around 11:00, then around 12:30-13:00 the lunch crowd from the nearby offices would show up and sometimes after that there would be a birthday event or a funeral wake, then it would quiten down again until 17:00-18:00 when families showed up for dinner, and later than that the drinking crowd would show up and it would become too lively to sit and code.
Pubs in the UK works as family restaurants (with a bar) but they are a place of social gathering, and they cater to all sort of different types of business.
