Public houses, or "pubs" are a cherished British and Irish institution, and are rather different from North American bars (or, at least, the TV versions of said bars). They're much better lit, more comfortable, better furnished, and serve hearty, home-cooked meals ("pub grub") as well as the usual mixed drinks and pints of ale. They're open to all ages until a certain hour, and they close much earlier. You only have to be eighteen to have alcoholnote Sixteen in the UK if ordered with a meal and a legal adult present. Service generally requires going up to the bar to order. The closest American equivalent is the Local Hangout. The local pub (or "local") is frequently the glue that knits together a community or neighbourhood, and is an obvious focal point for the cast of many British Series. The owner of the pub, who holds the pub license is called the landlord or landlady, or the publican. Patrons also enjoy playing cribbage, darts, Foosball (table football) and snooker, watching rugby and football on TV, and testing their trivia knowledge with a pub quiz. Some pubs have a microphone and small PA system so singer-songwriters and small groups can perform. In the 1970s, the genre of pub rock developed through these shows. |

Neighbours always has a bar of some sort in the same area of the Lassiters complex: the Waterhole (destroyed in a gas explosion), Chez Chez (renamed after Cheryl's death), Lou's Place (burned down, with Lou starting a new business with Harold), The Scarlet Bar (Max left it with his ex-wife Stephanie, who named it after their son) and Charlie's (revamped in 2014) and eventually the Waterhole again. | |

From the Three Flavours Cornetto Trilogy: The Winchester in Shaun of the Dead. The Porters' pub in Hot Fuzz. A whole dozen pubs in The World's End as part of an epic pub crawl, including the eponymous The World's End. Which is not an unusually high number of pubs for an average sized town in Britain or Ireland. There are towns that could comfortably seat all the locals in their several locals. |

Three from Call the Midwife: The Hand and Shears is the most common one mentioned, apparently being the one favoured by the families of the central characters (both Dr Turner and Fred appear to be relatively frequent patrons). The Master's Arms is another one of these in Poplar, run by Julia Masterson (the obstetric patient in S02E06, who inherited it from her estranged father). The Black Sail is a pub for the dockers and sailors in Poplar, run by Nurse Valerie Dyer's family. She lives above the pub with her family (a special dispensation from Nonnatus, which usually requires its nurses to live in the convent even if they aren't nuns). |

The Green Dragon in The Lord of the Rings is a Hobbitish pub in Bywater that is more or less explicitly modeled on the classic British form. This makes sense, given that the Shire generally is modeled on the English countryside Tolkien loved. The Ivy Bush, where Sam Gamgee's father is a regular, is a smaller such pub, located in Hobbiton. The Prancing Pony in Bree is also modeled on an English pub; while it gives off Bad-Guy Bar vibes to the sheltered Shire-hobbits of Frodo's party at first, it turns out to be pretty ordinary (if unusual in serving both Hobbits and "Big People"). | |

In Wicked, students at Shiz University often visit the Peaches and Kidney. Oz is based off 19th century America, but the Peaches and Kidney is a British-style pub that the main characters hang around during the university chapters. | |

While not discussed much in the main books, the local pub for residents of Ffarquhar, Sodor is a charming place called The Three Beetles. Good food and drink, good atmosphere, handy for the train station, and it even has a bowling green. | |

The Hanged Man tavern from Dragon Age II, where at least two of your party members always hang out, and others frequently come to drink with them, including your own character. | |

Whenever a pub was mentioned in Hello Cheeky, it was either the Duck & Pullet or the evil variant, the Cock & Wallet. | |

While we never actually see it, Lara Croft - of all people, considering her background and wealth - in Tomb Raider (2013) reveals she learnt to bandage wounds while working in a pub called The Nine Bells. She wanted to pay her own way through university instead of relying on her family money, but it's still a bizarre revelation. | |

The Blue Boar, Woolfont Magna, in the Village Tales series ("S. Kellow, Licensee, Sole Prop. :: A Free House :: Real Ales & Ciders"). On any given evening, you may well find the Duke being affable, the Rector walloping all comers at snooker, the District poacher being chucked out, the senior "team curate" Fr. Campion – or the parish organist, his brother, if Fr. Campion is defending his darts title – leading a sing-along at the piano, Supreme Chef Teddy Gates escaping his gastropub-hotel for a pie and a pint, and bewildered tourists trying to penetrate the barrier of Mr. Kellow's West Country accent. On Quiz Nights, always in aid of one or another local cause, you will find most of the District tackling questions an Oxford Senior Common Room couldn't agree on, with the fortunate among them having signed on to a team captained by the Headmaster of the Free School, the Rector, or the Duke. The warm, friendly Old Bridge, run by Mr. Kellow's cousin Jack Burridge, fulfills a similar function for the Downland parishes, mostly for Meaningfully Taciturn (but warm and friendly) farmers and water bailiffs and so on: river bailiff Fred Beckett, and his dog Toby, are regulars, as is Dr. Molly Hillier the chief environmental officer. As of Evensong, Mr. Kellow's son is working on reopening and restoring the old Woolpack – briefly and disastrously bought by "vurriners" from another part of the County and renamed "The Ring of Bells" – down in Woolfont Crucis. The characters spent a good deal of time down the local, really.... | |

The Grantham Arms in Downton Abbey is shown to be one of these for the working-class characters. Makes sense, given it's the only one in the village. | |
