Reply to comment by The_CerealDefense in How NYC nightlife is getting in the sober spirit with alcohol-free bars by exgalactic

Yup. Alcohol is hard to replace as a product bc having one makes you want another. Like even people doing injectable opioids don’t do one after another after another. Not saying that to be funny, but the average bar tab relative to the bar’s rent is really hard to replace, whether it’s marijuana, non-alcoholic, whatever.

Yeah. The average ticket is one (of several) things that makes the non alcoholic version a lot worse. Of course your costs are lower but it’s basically a coffee shop at that point.
