liquid lunch
Alcoholic noon break
A liquid lunch is a midday meal consisting mainly or entirely of alcoholic drinks rather than food.
The phrase is usually humorous or self-deprecating: We skipped the sandwich shop and had a liquid lunch at the pub.
It suggests a leisurely, possibly indulgent approach to the workday.
