dramshop
Old-fashioned bar term
A dramshop is an establishment that sells alcoholic beverages, particularly a bar or tavern.
The term is old-fashioned but survives in legal contexts: dramshop laws hold bars liable for injuries caused by intoxicated patrons they served.
A dram is a small drink of liquor.
