Favorite types of Taverns/Pubs/Bars!

I heard that the wretched Monster of Boredom has recruited an apprentice, Monotony, and that together, they are starting to spread their foul stench to all corners of our fair Tavern of the Rising Sun! So, I intend to take this here "Holy Thread of Excitement" in one hand (looks over at the shimmering weapon in his right hand) and the "All-powerful Post of Enthusiasm" in the other (whips head around to gaze upon the destructive tool in his left hand) and rid this sacred establishment of these sinister fiends! (Raises blessed instruments straight out above his head) Who’s with me???!!!

Take up arms, my brothers and sisters! There are plenty of powerful Posts abound that yee may share with one another in our quest. I will make a suggestion, however… In order to effectively slay our nemeses, with the least amount of casualties, we will need to combine our Will & Might on Posts explaining our “favourite types of Taverns/Pubs/Bars”. This way, our happy & constructive Posts will shed a glaring light across our beloved Tavern that will drive Boredom & Monotony back into the dark woods of Laziness.

Let me sound the charge by saying that my preferred Tavern usually has a good LIVE BAND playing Irish, Acadian, or Canadian-Maritime drinking songs!

“Well, the night ol' Pat Murphy died is a night I’ll never forget. Me and the boys got loaded drunk & we ain’t got sober yet!”
“Her eyes shine like diamonds…You’d swear she was Queen of the land…YES SHE WAS…Her hair hung over her shoulders, tied up with a black velvet band!”
“And I would walk 500 miles…and I would walk 500 more…just to be the man who walked 5000 miles to fall out at your door!”

Let’s join together on this righteous Crusade and share ideas of our “favourite types of Taverns/Pubs/Bars” or simply elaborate on someone else’s idea. Asmodean, get that BAND of yours back together and start singing some tunes, so that we can start clearing the air of Boredom & Monotony’s noxious gases! Sir_Stiven, install one your friggin Big Screen TVs and Pandora, change the channel to Hockey Night in Canada (so we can watch those 25% less rich players)! Daddy, get your minks behind the bar and start pouring some StrongBow for me, will ya! Conan…let's go sit on our thrones in the War-Room (i.e. toilets in the washroom)!

C’mon people we have work to do! Share your Mighty Posts with me, share with us all!

I like mostly those bars where I can get in.. You know, I´m underaged..
It´s so sad when one day you get in without any problems and the other day you are asked for papers. Never can´t trust them.. Too many times have I been served and then asked for papers when I´m buying another drink.

So far we have this...

Our Favorite types of Taverns/Pubs/Bars would need to:

*Have a Live Band playing drinking songs.
*Resemble the Australian Pub.
*Allow...nay...ENCOURAGE under-age drinking.

No offense Trogdor & T-A, but the Aussie Pub didn't impress me all that much. If I read correctly, it pretty much consists of one bartender (T-A), 2 regulars (Trogdor & doomfreak), an occasional walk-in client (Damacon_Ace, T-O-G, Asmodean, & rychenroller) and some dog tied to a post outside (Dingo).

I'm not trying to steal any other Pub's clients here, I am simply trying to compile a list of favorite types of Taverns/Pubs/Bars. Finaly, once this list is forged in the Fires of Fun, we will take it and force the Monster of Boredom and his apprentice, Monotony, back into the Woods of Laziness. Thus, our holy Tavern of the Rising Sun will be open for business to all clients!

Who likes hot women?!

I think that my Favorite types of Taverns/Pubs/Bars would all need one of these:

Virtual Bartender

Place your orders and try her out...try anything!

P.S. T-A how could you take offense, when none was offered? Weird...

Hmm, well I like a bar where I don't have to shout. That's important. Yes, it makes me feel old to admit it, but I hate going to a place where it takes about six "WHAT?!?!?!?!"s to finally understand a sentance.

I am agreed with your music selection Leo! Verrrrry nice, must be that Canadian blood

I personally am quite against underaged drinking - and when I go to bar there's nothing that drives me nuts quicker than a pack of intoxicated teenies, but we're online so I guess we have to make allowances.

I think maybe we should leave out that TV - cuz for one, there's no hockey anyways. And secondly, its rather antisocial - and 3rd, I'd hate to abuse my mod powers and I most certainly would have to start silencing those who badmouth my beloved leafs

I do like a bit of a philosophical debate now and again, but absolutely for me, i like to laugh. create a place for me where i can be surrounded with friends and the sound of their laughter, and you're on the right track indeed

Oh and beer. Canadian beer. and keep it comin

Irish pubs!

Nice thread léo!!

I love I rish pubs. And like you, a live band is a must.
I think I like Irish because of the atmosphere,but also because of their beer! yeah, Keiths is good, but Smithicks and Guinness is even better.
I'd really like to now how our Irish pubs differ from Pubs in Ireland... Asmo?

I with you with your choice of music!

So, why do you want me to accompany you to our "thrones"? LOL

I prefer blues bars.

Like Pandora, I don't enjoy places where you have to shout your lungs out to get yourself heard. I also expect a generous selection of drinks to be available.

Yeah, I would like to visit some jazz/blues bar, but I guess we don´t have many here in Finland..
You know, a place where you can see no longer than your nose, cause of cigarette smoke...
And some kind of "spinning" disco lighting is needed.

As of now, we have this...

Our Favorite types of Taverns/Pubs/Bars would need to:

*Have a Live Band, at one end of the establishment, playing drinking songs sometimes & Blues/Jazz Music the other times.

*Reserve an area (at the opposite end of the establishment from where the music is played) for people to sit, drink, & talk.

*Combine elements from the Australian Pub with elements from a "typical" Irish Pub.

*Allow under-age drinking...in the basement of the establishment.

*Have a Virtual Bartender.

*Have a large variety of drinks from all over the world (emphasis on Australian, Canadian, & Irish beers). LOTS OF 'EM too!

*Have a seperate & enclosed "Smokers area".

*Enforce a "No Disco Balls" & "No TVs" rule!

Keep these great ideas coming people! I think I might actually use this information at some point & time, in the future, to open my very own establishment...HC users would get to run up a TAB, of course!

I was joking about the offence of course

About the No-smoking area, I would like it more if the whole place was non-smoking.

Good, that'll provide a healthier atmosphere and allow people to save their choke-ful tears for the sad songs.

Where to smoke if not in bars? Smoking is restricted in so many places nowadays, so at least in bars you should be able to do that. Especially in wintertime. Go ahead and restrict alcohol too, it´s not healthy in big amounts.. And it can harm the surrounding people too, indirectly...

We are faring well, my brothers & sisters-in-arms!


So far, our Favorite types of Taverns/Pubs/Bars would need to:

*Enclose a small sound-proof seating area for Karaoke singing & for occasional Open-mic Nights.

*Have a Live Band, at one end of the establishment, playing drinking songs sometimes & Blues/Jazz Music the other times.

*Reserve an area (at the opposite end of the establishment from where the music is played) for people to sit, drink, & talk.

*Have a seperate & enclosed "Smokers area". +I find this is a fair compromise between allowing smoking anywhere in the establishment, or banning it altogether.+

*Combine elements from the Australian Pub with elements from a "typical" Irish Pub.

*Allow under-age drinking...in the basement of the establishment.

*Have a Virtual Bartender.

*Have a large variety of drinks from all over the world (emphasis on Australian, Canadian, & Irish beers). LOTS OF 'EM too!

*Enforce a "No Disco Balls" & "No TVs" rule!
+++ My favorite types of Taverns/Pubs/Bars all sell good food! Battered fish (at least 2 pieces, none of this 1 piece crap! ), cheesesticks, garlic bread, all varieties of fries (curly, spicy, poutines...yum!), potato skins, plump & juicy chicken wings, etc... Anyone else getting hungry?
