wet bars

Built-in serving areas

A wet bar is a small bar or counter equipped with running water and a sink, typically built into a home's entertainment area, basement, or den.

The "wet" distinguishes it from a dry bar, which lacks plumbing: The basement renovation included a wet bar with a mini fridge.

Wet bars are associated with mid-century American home design and suburban entertaining.
