 GJ> In your country is it usual for meals to be served in bars?

Depends. Sometimes. We have dive taverns that sell little or no food
other than pickled eggs, jerky and packaged chips (crisps). Others
will have good lunches as a draw. A sports bar with a big screen TV
usually has a menu full of deep fried greasy things like chicken
wings etc. Many licensed dining rooms will have a bar attached to it
that has a simpler menu but upon request you can get the same food
as the main dining room (or if the dining room is full and you
don't have a reservation, you will be offered a meal at the bar.)
