barmaids
Tavern drink servers
Barmaids is the plural of barmaid—a woman who serves drinks in a bar or pub.
The term is more common in British English, where pubs have traditionally employed women behind the bar: The barmaids pulled pints for the Friday crowd.
The word sounds somewhat dated; bartender now serves as the gender-neutral standard.
