Social lunch != working lunch
Though a pint or two or sharing a bottle of wine (not one each) at a working lunch is hardly unusual in Blighty.

One doesn't need to drive into London nor most commuter cities.
- nemo44x 2y agoIn the USA it's often called "day drinking" and it usually coincides with brunch (never heard the term "social lunch" here) on the weekend. As in "rosé all day", or "bottomless bloody mary's" with a brunch purchase, etc.
