The modern nightclub has nothing on the ancient British tradition of the public house.
In pubs you can sit down.
Good pubs have lots of seats, that you can get really drunk on, and you don't even have to worry about being able to stand up.

You can hear stuff.
Pubs are the perfect location to enjoy conversation with your friends. In clubs you could never do this with ease, you have to shout at each other, making for uncivilised chat.
BBC
They have food in pubs.
This is the big one. Because food is the best, and clubs do not serve food. After you've got slightly tipsy all you want is a little snack, or a full-blown meal, but you cannot get this in a club.
Scotch eggs, pork scratchings, pies! These are glorious things, and widely available in pubs.
Pubs are free to enter.
Granted the landlord will probably not appreciate you coming in and not buying anything, but technically pubs are free. You usually have to pay to enter a club, so you're paying to go to a place where you can't sit down and doesn't serve food. ?
