How do you tag a drinking establishment that is not a pub? I'm thinking of places where
* they typically don't serve food
* the name doesn't start with "The" or have Olde Worlde signs out the front
* the main drinks are often wine or cocktails, rather than pints of beer
* there may (or may not) be an area set aside for dancing, e.g. with a DJ
* in places with ridiculous licensing laws (such as the UK), these places are often open later than pubs, which normally wind down around 11pm or midnight. A bar or club may not even really get moving before 11 or 12
Pub is definitely misleading in these instances, although the icon of a drink is probably still appropriate
