pub fare

Tavern menu offerings

Pub fare is the food served at a pub—typically hearty, unpretentious dishes meant to accompany drinking.

Fish and chips, shepherd's pie, bangers and mash, and burgers are characteristic examples.

The term suggests comfort food rather than fine dining: The menu was standard pub fare—nothing fancy but satisfying.
