I like restaurants. But if you want to run a restaurant, buy a restaurant instead of wasting a potentially cracking pub in a great location.

See the 'pub' bit? That means 'public'. I know it's your pub and you can do what you like with it, but the point of a public house is to allow the public in to generally hang out and feel at home.

This evening I was literally barred from the garden on account of there being nowhere to sit. I think I was 15 the last time I was chucked out of a pub, my route being cut off by a black-clad waiter who apologised for the fact that I couldn't be allowed to do anything so vulgar as to stand with a pint in the spacious garden.

Absolutely absurd, and remarkably even managing to top the last time I tried the place (yes, I should've known better than to give it a second chance). Having been admitted to the hallowed garden, I wasn't allowed to order any food there because it looked like rain. Well yes, it might rain and it might be a bit inconvenient. But then the pub might get hit by a meteor. Might be for the best.
