It's the same in the UK for pubs and inns - I don't know how much bars are a major player in the community in the US, but in the UK they can often be the focus or hub of whole villages and communities - 500 year old pubs are really not uncommon, a handful are around the 1000 years old mark. (e.g. a very good friend of mine is landlady of a 700 year old pub.) And many are folding/losing business hand over fist because of this kind of thing.
This is our history going up in smoke.
