bar culture
Tavern social scene
Bar culture is the social customs, rituals, and community life that develop around drinking establishments.
It encompasses everything from the unwritten rules of ordering and tipping to the relationships formed between regulars, bartenders, and staff.
Different types of bars cultivate distinct cultures—dive bars, cocktail lounges, sports bars, gay bars, neighborhood pubs—each with their own norms and clientele.
The city has a thriving bar culture centered around craft cocktails.
