Martin chats with Dale Harvey, founder of The Great British Pub Crawl, who’s on a mission to visit every pub in Britain. Dale shares how a small challenge in Nottinghamshire turned into a nationwide campaign to celebrate and save the great British boozer.

They discuss the state of the UK’s pubs — rising costs, pubco restrictions, government inaction, and why these community hubs are vital for culture, tourism, and mental health. Dale highlights the rise of micro pubs as the future of independent beer, the importance of fairer tax for hospitality, and his plans for a new Great British Pub Crawl App to help drinkers discover and support local pubs.

From calling out corporate “support” campaigns to sharing stories of communities buying back their locals, this episode is both passionate and eye-opening. If you care about beer, pubs, and keeping the UK’s social heart beating, this one’s for you.
