bar top

Where drinks rest

Bar top refers to the horizontal surface of a bar where drinks are served and patrons sit or stand.

It can describe the counter itself or, as an adjective, things designed for that surface: bar top seating, bar top games.

A bar top table is a tall, narrow table at standing height, mimicking the elevated surface of a drinking bar.
