The fact is that it's pretty much irrelevant what kind of establishment it is. The point is who the fuck pays for that sandwich. Your insistence on correcting them on something totally irrelevant to the point makes you a twat.
Someone might pay for that sandwich if the primary function of the establishment is the consumption of alcohol (as it is in a pub) and not the serving of quality meals (as it is in a restaurant).
In a pub, especially if it's the type of place where some real serious drinking occurs, the primary function of the a method of filling a stomach and absorbing alcohol and that sandwich would probably fill the brief.
I'm not saying it looks like a good sandwich, but it's a practical one. A real sandwich for a real alcoholic. It's definitely not the type of food you'd expect find in a restaurant. The type of place IS relevant, you chump.
It isn't because if you serve me food (not even good, just edible) and you give me that, IDC how shit faced I am, I'm gonna throw it at you. That isn't food, and the fact that you're so hellbent on pointing out that it's a pub just enforces the stereotype that the English don't know anything about food.
English food has always been "just have pints until it's edible". But even that has its limits.
