Nearly half of Dublin pubs who serve food say the VAT increase has led to a drop in their business, new research conducted by the Licensed Vintners Association shows.
This resulted in a €1 increase per average dish in 24% of the food pubs, a €1.50 jump per menu item for 22% of these pubs and a €2 hike on average for 17% of pubs.

Donall O'Keeffe, chief executive of the LVA said, these statistics once again underline the importance of reducing the VAT rate on food.
