Someone managed to draw a map of the UK - using only the locations of pubs!

Alas, I have been unable to contact them. Does anyone know the source of their data? I would like to have the lat/long and/or street address of every pub in the uk for a new project.

It says: Data: OpenStreetMap in the image.

You can download OpenStreetMap data dumps in a variety of formats, such as shape-files. Like a database, it will contain nodes of certain types, including one for pubs. They will all include geographic coordinates. Simply extract all the nodes that are pubs and you're there.
