corner bar
Neighborhood drinking spot
A corner bar is a neighborhood tavern, typically occupying a corner lot in an urban area.
The term evokes a local, unpretentious drinking establishment—the kind of place where regulars gather and the bartender knows your name: We stopped at the corner bar for a beer after work.
The corner location traditionally offered visibility and two entrances.
