barrooms
Where regulars gather
Barrooms are rooms where alcoholic drinks are served, typically the main space in a bar or tavern.
The word evokes a certain old-fashioned, rougher atmosphere: barroom brawls, barroom talk.
It appears more often as an adjective than as a simple noun for where you drink.
