This ‘Flat Pack Pub’ Is a Bar in a Box You Can Build At Home

As pandemic restrictions begin to loosen, acquiring a table at your local bar can feel near impossible, and may require inserting yourself in a sea of eager drinkers throwing elbows.

That’s why the U.K. comedy TV channel Dave has collaborated with online retailer Firebox to create the “Flat Pack Pub.” The 15-piece set comes in a single box, and after assembly serves as an entire three-dimensional bar. Those who are frustrated with vying for reservations can avoid the trouble entirely by bringing the bar home.

All it takes to build your own private pub is a few minutes (and an ounce of patience to read an instruction manual.) The set comes with a solid plywood bar, two barstools, and a backdrop that depicts a bunch of bottles, though you’re going to have to splurge on the real booze yourself.

Cheers to self-sufficiency!
