student bar

University drinking spot

A student bar is a drinking establishment located on or near a university campus, catering primarily to students.

These bars typically offer cheap drinks, casual atmospheres, and often host events tied to student life: The student bar was packed after the football match.

In British usage especially, the term refers to bars operated within the student union building itself.
