Since people can't travel to their favorite pubs, in many instances, pubs are coming to people and TV channel Dave teamed up with comedian Jon Richardson to create a [pop-up pub](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/irishinspired-popup) that can be set up virtually anywhere. The 15-piece Flat Pack Pub is a kit that was created for thirsty adults who want to replicate their favorite bar scene anywhere with a solid stained wood bar, a realistic backdrop and a [pair of bar stools](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/walle-stool).

Dave’s Flat Pack Pub was intentionally created to allow "people to create an at-home pub experience if they are unable to book a space at their local pub." The kit was inspired by the Meet the Richardsons series, starring Jon Richardson and his wife Lucy Beaumont, who have their own at-home garden pub.
