Seating is provided
outside the pub so that customers can sit and have their food and drinks
here if the weather is good.
We call these
benches with integral seating 'picnic tables'. You often find them outside
pubs or cafes. It's great to have a picnic, but I don't think you would be
very popular if you brought your own food to eat here. Sometimes there is
a sign pointing this out. It usually states that -
'
Tables are solely for the use of customers and only food purchased on the
premises may be consumed here'.
