 Tavern - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Gathering in a tavern to drink beer or other alcoholic drinks is a longstanding social tradition dating at least to Sumer (3500 BC); in Sumer the tavern keeper was traditionally a woman but in other places and times women could be completely excluded from tavern culture.
The distinction of a tavern from an inn, bar or pub varies by location, in some places being identical and in others being distinguished by traditions or by legal license.
A tavern is, loosely, a place of business where people gather to drink alcoholic beverages and, more than likely, also be served food, though not licenced to put up guests.

 Good beer flows at Colonial Tavern
The tavern's freshly mashed potatoes topped with melted cheddar cheese were the only redeeming feature of a disappointing shepherd's pie ($10, $13).
Colonial Tavern's pot roast ($15) is a lot of beef and a few vegetables cooked not only until the meat falls apart, but until it has lost most of its flavor.
The tavern is getting a new menu soon, so the lamb chops will be available only on a mixed grill platter; we hope that will up the value.

 [minstrels] Madhushala (The Tavern) -- Harivansh Rai Bachchan
Tie to a vine of grapes, not a waterpot, but a wine-goblet.
The range of the 135 verses of Madhushala is wide: wine and the tavern or wine-house serve as the basic metaphors in the poem and symbolise the fillness and intoxication of life as well as its pain and frustration.
Seeking wine, the drinker leaves home for the tavern.

 The City Tavern Restaurant And Online Store, Philadelphia Pennsylvania
As outlined in cookbooks of the period, the dinner meal generally had two courses, each of which combined meat, fish, meat and fruit pies, poultry, puddings, vegetables, and "relishes" (jellies or aspics, preserves salads and pickled food and so on).
In public establishments like City Tavern, however, tea, coffee, soup, ice cream, and liquor were available at the bar at all times.
