Pub question

[rdssdi]

I live in the U.S.. I was watching a TV program. The story was taking place in the UK. One character said that he was bought several pints in the Public Section at the pub.

What is a "Public Section". I am confident that many forum members are well acquainted with pubs.

Thanks

Elan and Europa owners will be found in the Public Bar whilst Elise and Evora owners will be found in the Lounge

Have a look at https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pub

There is a section about the 'Public Bar' which kind of agrees with KevJ+2.

Interesting.

If I ever get to the UK I will have to do some research. Thanks

Almost all pubs in the UK have remodelled and removed the distinction between: Public Bar, Lounge Bar and Ladies Bar nowadays.

So your research will be one long pub crawl in search of an olde time pub.

Beer used to be cheaper in the Public Bar.. Probably explains the Elan owners ...

But not much to stop you buying it in the public bar and drinking in the lounge!
