They always had empty seats because it wasn't very popular - and that was the foundation of their longevity? :???:
I suspect the real reason is that they signed a long lease a long time ago when rents were lower. They cannot justify renewing the lease selling their same stale product.
If we are lucky, they will sell the brewhouse equipment to the next tenant and we'll get a new brewery. Probably not a brewpub this time.. More likely, this location will never be a brewery again.
"survived as long as they did" was what I was responding to.
The only reason they had any substantive clientele in there - and (we assume) were able to make payments - was the mode of clientele I am referring to.
If they merely had their low quality food/beer offering, and not the style of dining room that they had, they would have been gone long ago IMO. For instance, if only 2-topper cafe tables were available, they would have offered no utility to anyone.
Rational economists really seem to need to have multidimensional utility spelled out for them.
