This statistic displays the results of a 2018 survey, which asked adults in Great Britain how important, if at all, they think pubs are to their social life. The results show a correlation between age and importance of pubs, with just over half 18-24 year old stating it had some level of importance to their social life personally compared to only 28 percent of those over 45. The difference between the genders was much smaller; 38 percent of male respondents felt pubs are important for socializing compared to 34 percent of female respondents.
